Puffer jackets are warm. Filled with too much insulation, though, and they become more "puff" than "jacket". The Davos from Collars & Co. uses a clever build to maintain a sleek look. Its hood removes in seconds, taking the jacket from full coverage to a form more fitting for a night out. Lightweight poly-fill insulation provides plenty of warmth; tactical stitching and smartly placed pockets complete the package.

Trashie
Trashie's Take Back Bag is the easiest way to get rid of clothing and other textiles you do not need anymore. Simply buy a bag (or a bundle of them) fill it up, mail it back, and Trashie will ensure those items never make it to landfills, rerouting them to third-party retailers Trashie individually vets for compatibility. That means your old T-shirt, depending on its condition, could end up going to someone in need or being broken down to create carpet padding or pet bed filling, among other things. You earn exactly $30 in TrashieCash for each bag you send back, which you can redeem for deals — direct cash equivalent or a certain percentage off — to buy yourself new things from your favorite brands.
