REI's end-of-year clearance sale is in full swing, with fantastic deals on cold-weather hiking boots from Merrell, running shoes from Hoka, and even select bikes. But the outdoor supplier's sale is the top spot to look for a great deal on a rugged winter jacket, and right now, Fjallraven is leading the pack with its popular insulated parka that's $150 off, but only for a limited time.
The Fjallraven Nuuk Insulated Parka is now on sale for just $350 at REI—a rare 30% off its normal price of $500. This well-reviewed winter jacket has earned over 50 five-star ratings from shoppers who say it's "extremely warm" and works in climates ranging from New England to the Pacific Northwest. It's on sale in four colors and is still available in most sizes from small to 3XL, but a select few have started to sell out. Make sure to get yours soon, though, because the discount disappears on Dec. 31.
The Nuuk Insulated Parka is an excellent jacket for harsh weather, whether you live in a walking city, are trying to survive the conditions of coastal Lake Michigan, or are exploring the backcountry. It's made from tough polyamide and has a waterproof but breathable membrane that locks out wind, rain, and snow while venting body heat. Its hood is lined with fleece and is fully adjustable while the cuffs feature hook-and-loop closures and the waist an adjustable drawcord, so even at the openings, you're protected. It also comes with tons of pockets, including fleece-lined hand warmer pockets, buttoned chest pockets, zippered interior pockets, two mesh drop-in stash pockets, and more.
Shoppers are raving about this jacket, but it all comes down to one common theme: it's a tough piece of gear that's functional and comfortable in frigid weather. "Best piece of extreme cold gear I own," one reviewer stated. "It’s currently 5 degrees Fahrenheit here in Chicago and wearing this, I feel like I could sit outside all night with no issue. The warmth of this jacket is incredible. I look forward to sub-freezing weather because it means I get to wear this beast of a jacket…This thing is well-made and truly built for harsh temperatures."
The Fjallraven Nuuk Insulated Parka has been one of the hottest sellers during REI's end-of-year clearance sale, but the discount is slated to go away very soon. Make sure to get one in your cart ASAP to make the next few months of winter much easier.
