Volcom "Arcadia" Jacket"
I know that we're all broke right now and that the economy has gone and taken a big, steamy dump on every American in existence at the moment. However, the weather is making its way towards the cold category, and despite what luxuries you may be sacrificing during these trying times, you still need to stay warm. And if you're gonna drop some cash someplace for some winter gear, why not put it back into the industry that supports your habit...skateboarding. With a compelling ad campaign that's innovative as f*ck and the all-star team of skaters who appear within those print advertisements, it's easy to lose sight of the mere fact that Volcom makes clothing. Yep, they're a clothing brand eveyrone. And hell, in my opinion they're one of the best clothing brands out there, making gear that fits good and looks super good. Two jackets that I'm faithfully backing for my long winter days ahead as a New Yorker are, the Arcadia and the Broseph Von Sickter models.

The Arcadia is a super heavy-duty Army-style, cold punching monster of a coat with a whopping seven pockets. That's plenty of room to hold your chapstick and those Superman Freezy Freakies of yours when the indoors come calling. It also has a warm padding in the body and a removable, elastic drawstring hood. You're psyched.

"Broseph Von Sickter" Coat
The Broseph is a buttery, Parka-style jacket that's available in both black and white plaid (shown). It's real warm without weighing you down and features five pockets all around for carrying, stashing and burying those cold nubs. Plus there's a removable faux fur jammy around the hood that lets the ladies know you're a compassionate fella. Who's coming up on that adorable trim? That someone could be you. -Jay Riggio
