7 early Amazon Prime Day outerwear deals I'd buy right now from The North Face, Columbia and Helly Hansen

Columbia Steens Mountain 2.0 Full Zip Fleece Jacket (men's): was $60 now $38
A high-quality fleece jacket for under $40 is a total steal in my book. This cozy and stylish full-zip is available in a wide range of sizes and colors and comes highly rated by nearly a thousand Amazon users. 

Columbia Benton Springs Vest (women's): was $45 now $39
If sleeves ain't your thing but feeling warm and comfy is then consider the Columbia Benton Springs fleece vest. It's extra plush and boasts two zippered hand pockets for good measure.

Columbia Benton Springs Full Zip (women's): was $60 now $45
On the flip side, if you prefer that the thieves didn't steal the sleeves, then the full-zip Benton Springs fleece may be the jacket for you. Best of all, that set of sleeves will cost you just six bucks more. 

Columbia Fire Side II Full Zip Sherpa (women's): was $100 now $59
Moving into even cozier garments than the fleece options above, Columbia's ultra plush sherpa jacket is a whopping 41% off with lots of styles to select from. Like the Benton Springs options, zippered hand pockets come standard. 

Marmot Drop Line Half Zip Fleece (men's): was $90 now $59
Dudes can also get in on the high-end cozy coat deals by way of the Marmot Drop Line Fleece. This half-zip is extra-breathable, making it a great choice for layering in the colder months. For those not familiar with the brand, Marmot has been making technical outerwear for serious Alaskan outdoor enthusiasts for over 50 years. So, you can trust they know a thing or two about warmth. 

Helly Hansen Moss Hooded Raincoat (men's): was $85 now $64
While Marmot is U.S.-based, Helly Hansen is a Norwegian outerwear brand with similarly impressive credentials but 140+ years in the business. Norway, like Alaska, gets some damn-cold and wet winters and simply put, this may well be the best rain jacket you ever own. I'll leave it at that.

The North Face Osito Jacket (women's): was $99 now $84
The North Face is another one of my favorite gorpware brands. Not only does TNF outerwear look stylish, wear comfortably and keep you reliably warm, but it holds up exceptionally well over the seasons. The women's Osito Jacket is no exception. It's also bodaciously soft to the touch.
