Grey Parkas You'll Reach For First

Grey is the right colour for a parka and most men already know this without being able to explain why. It sits neutrally over almost anything, it doesn't show every mark the way navy does, and it photographs well without looking like you tried. The problem is that most parkas are either too military to wear casually or too casual to wear anywhere that matters. We've been looking specifically for the ones that thread that gap. Hoods that sit properly without a fur trim that moults everywhere. Fills that perform in actual British winter without making you look like a sleeping bag with legs. Cuts that work over a midlayer and still look considered. Grey also happens to be the colour that ages best in outerwear. A washed out, well worn grey parka looks intentional in a way that a tired navy or black rarely does. These are the ones you hang by the door because you know you'll want them first.
