Get up to 51% off fleeces from Patagonia, The North Face, Passenger, Adidas, and more — cosy and cool jackets for autumn

3 hours ago 9

For once, I'm not too sad that summer is drawing to a close. I can't wait for the cooler weather to arrive. I know because I can't stop looking for cold-weather gear. I've discovered that a load of my favorite outdoor brands and retailers — from my time as an Outdoors editor — are running big sales on autumnal essentials.

I've already shared my favorite waterproof deals (40% off Rab! 20% off Arc'teryx!), but here I'd like to spotlight fleeces. Now, fleeces were always a practical choice for outdoorsing, but in recent years they've shed their slightly nerdy reputation and emerged as a cool option you can also wear about town. I have several, and I think the more obnoxious the pattern, the better.

Below, I've rounded up my favorite fleece bargains, including some fabulous patterned and colorful options as well as more muted offerings, ranging from more urban-leaning to ultra-practical fleeces for layering. Let's get cosy.
