Zara Tindall named this weather-resistant parka jacket as one of her must-have autumn/winter closet additions, and now you can shop it for nearly £200 less than usual
The Royal who spends the most time outdoors definitely seems to be Zara Tindall. Between dog walking, hiking and horseback riding, the 43 year old appears to jump at the chance to do anything out in the fresh air. So who better than Zara to give advice on jackets to keep you cosy and dry while you’re out and about?
A few months ago, Zara – the daughter of Princess Anne – teamed up with outdoor clothing and performance brand Musto to talk about her go-to jackets for the colder season, and we were desperate to get our hands on all of them, but largely the Musto Headland Pertex Primaloft Parka. Back then, the jacket was priced at £375, but you can shop it for £188 today thanks to a new-season sale. That’s a sizeable £187, or 50% off, saving.
Of her picks, Zara said: “These jackets are the perfect choice for staying warm and dry, as the colder, wetter weather starts to set in. I have worn Musto for years, and it’s the perfect kit for riding horses, walking the dogs, and being outside, all of which I love.”
Debenhams slashes price on waterproof jacket in half as shoppers rave its ‘perfect for the autumn’
Available in sizes 8-18, this insulated parka jacket promises to keep you covered (literally) in all conditions. Made with Pertex fabric, it’s waterproof enough for the heaviest rain, but still breathable so you stay comfy and dry. Whether you’re heading out for a hike or just facing a wet day, this jacket keeps you protected without feeling stuffy.
With Primaloft insulation, originally made for the US military, it’ll keep you warm without weighing you down. Windy days? No problem—the adjustable hood and cosy inner cuffs with thumbholes will help keep the chill out. Inspired by Musto’s ocean gear, it also comes with a higher collar and handy chest pockets to keep your hands warm when you need it most.
With the temperamental and very soggy weather we’ve been having so far in autumn, this Primaloft Parka is the perfect pick for this season, and future seasons, to come.
If you’re looking for something a little more budget-friendly, we can also highly recommend Debenhams’ ‘Keld’ Softshell Long Jacket, which has had a price cut from its usual £95 down to £47.50, giving buyers a£47.50 discount off the original price. This jacket is by Tog24 – the brand that has supplied shoppers with plenty of Liam-Gallagher inspired parkas.
