The snow has officially started to fall in the UK and that means we need some outerwear that’s going to keep us cosy, warm and dry. When it comes to waterproof jackets, few are quite as perfect for the gloomy weather as a waxed jacket, and there’s a reason it’s the unofficial uniform of the countryside – because it works.
Ideal for keeping the wet away and the cold at bay, wax jackets have always been one of the top picks for outdoor pursuits, but you don't need to be planning a jaunt in the country to make the most of them. Plenty of city dwellers have made the most of a waxed jacket, with celebs like eternal cool girl Alexa Chung donning them for festivals and rainy nights out, and now Joules has released a brand new version of its classic Banbury Wax Jacket just in time for the snowy weather.
The Banbury Brown/Khaki Showerproof Quilted Wax Jacket, £152 here, is the perfect balance of countryside chic and urban style, and its patchwork khaki and brown design would look just as at home in the city as it would in the woods. It has a corduroy collar and classic zip and popper fastenings that give it a heritage-inspired look, with both popper-fastened and slip-in pockets on the side and internal pockets, so you can keep all your belongings to hand.
It has a shower-resistant dry wax outer that will keep the rain and snow from soaking you through, and its vertical quilted lining works as a barrier against the unpredictable British weather to keep you warm and toasty even when the temperatures hit minus figures. It also has a relaxed fit that means you can squeeze a layer or two underneath it – an essential for the winter months.
