We're Wearing This Versatile Jacket Everywhere From Workouts to Coffee Dates

All the Ways to Wear is a monthly series where we round up the personal twists the Who What Wear U.S. team is putting on one particular item, style, or trend. Whether we're highlighting the trending denim of the moment or the season's It print, we hope to inspire your daily outfits and up the cost per wear on some of our favourite items.

As the temperature begins to drop, the hunt for my next quality outerwear piece is officially on. I always love a good puffer jacket that I can wear with everything from activewear to denim, and after looking high and low, I've landed on the perfect option from On. Meet the Challenger Jacket. This planet-friendly piece is a must-have for cold weather. With synthetic insulation made from 100% recycled plastic water bottles, it's constructed to lock in heat and features a three-point drawstring at the hood to shield you from the wind, rain and everything in between.

I wouldn't be doing my job if I didn't tell everyone about my excellent find. I relayed the news to Who What Wear U.S. associate editor and avid runner Sierra Mayhew, and U.S. fashion editor Natalie Gray Herder, who's bracing for her fourth winter in New York City. They were just as excited about the jacket as I am. To see all the different ways we're styling the Climate Jacket, keep scrolling.

"Late autumn and early winter are when I pick up more outdoor running. The weather is perfect for it since the brisk air keeps me on the move. When it's warmer out, I usually like to end my runs with a nice walk, but I've never had a running jacket that will keep me cosy enough to walk in the winter, too—until now. This one is super breathable, so I don't feel like I'm overheating. I'll mainly be styling it with fitness in mind, but it will also come with me for more casual date nights and outdoor activities." 

"As a Southern California native, I didn't wear puffer jackets until I moved to the (much colder) East Coast. My first winter, I learned very quickly that not all puffers are made the same, but I couldn't spend thousands on the designer options. I needed to find a warm jacket at a more reasonable price point, and the Challenger Jacket is exactly that. It's lightweight, keeps me warm and feels luxurious, and I didn't have to take out a loan to purchase it. Whether I'm headed out to dinner with friends (see the look I'm wearing here) or going out for a jog, this jacket will become my new best friend this winter."

"Gorpcore is a trend loved by It girls, models and fashion people alike, and I'm embracing it hard this autumn. If you're not familiar, it's the trend of styling more outdoorsy pieces (think this puffer jacket and trainers) with softer pieces like this maxi skirt. When I got my hands on this puffer jacket, I immediately knew I wanted to wear it in this unconventional way. Whilst I definitely know I'll be throwing it on for my morning workouts, I love that it's not restricted to only one type of outfit."
