The recent weather is really too cold and it feels like a bed needs great courage. I was wearing a short-sleeved shirt last week, and this week I was dressed like a nephew. I didn't care for the warmth of my image.
In every cold season, everyone swings between down jackets and coats. Some people may say that they are down jackets of course. They wear warm clothes. When the weather is cold, they don’t think about concave shapes. Some people also said that of course it was a coat. Every time you saw a TV show, those who wear coats are both gentlemen and handsome, and they don't need to wear down jackets to keep them warm.
If you want to choose between the two, it is still very difficult to choose. It's not as good as we are to compare today. Which one is better?
Warmth
The first thing we compare is the warmth performance of both clothes. Everyone knows that down jackets use ducks and goose's fluff as fillers, and in the four major natural insulation materials (cotton, silk, silk, and down), down is the best for warmth.
Down fibers contain a large number of tiny pores. The pores contain static air, and the heat transfer efficiency of the air is not high. Therefore, the down can shrink and expand with the change of temperature to achieve the effect of temperature regulation.
The higher the fluffy duvet, the more static air there is and the higher the thermal performance. You will see that the down jacket as a jacket will be very thick and fluffy, and it will be like Michelin.
The thermal warmth of the down jacket is not questionable, as no material has been found to be warmer than it is. Does that mean that the warmth of the coat is overwhelming?
That may not be the case. The warmth of the coat is not bad. Most of the coats are cut to mid-to-long section or above, not only to keep the upper body warm, but also to cover the thighs. In this respect, the coat is much better than the down coat.
The warmth of the coat depends more on the material of the fabric. Common winter coats are wool, cashmere and woolen.
The warmth performance of the three materials is arranged from low to high woolen, wool, cashmere. Everyone is talking about wool wool every day. What material is wool? In fact, wool is made of different materials blended fabrics, useful wool, cashmere blended, but also the use of chemical fiber and wool blended, different materials blended, then there will be a big difference in warmth.
Therefore, the thermal performance is not as good as pure wool and cashmere, but it is more resistant to wrinkles and abrasion than cashmere coats.
Wool fibers are longer and have the advantages of light weight, softness, etc., and feel better than wool. Because the structure of the wool can fix the air well and reduce the convection of the air, the warm performance is good.
Not to mention cashmere, cashmere is softer and fluffier than wool, and it is even more impressive in terms of warmth, but due to lower yields, prices are much higher.
The warmth of the cashmere coat is not lower than the average down jacket, but the specific price is still determined.
But down comfort is one of the warmest materials, warmth is still better.
Windproof
With warmth, the most important thing in autumn and winter clothes is wind resistance. Autumn and winter seasons are windy. No matter how thick you are to wear, once your clothes are ventilated, it feels as though there is a cold current that continues to burst into your body. It is cold to think about it.
Down jackets are also divided into a wide variety of jackets that are portable. Portability Because it is easy to carry, the first consideration must be convenience. The outer fabric does not have the function of waterproof against wind and is generally used for wearing in the early winter or in the middle.
The jacket-type down in order to adapt to more unexpected weather, will use advanced windproof waterproof coating, on the basis of warmth to further enhance the performance of windproof waterproof, improve the effect of warmth.
However, the effectiveness of the technology coating will gradually decline after repeated use. At this time, the down jacket is light and thin, and the windproof performance is unsatisfactory in the face of strong winds.
Coat in our impression, it is precisely used to protect the wind and warm. The simplest example is the Pea coat, which is still one of the Navy's standard outfits to date.
Because the coats are relatively thick and have a certain weight, the windproofness is still very secure.
So this round is a better coat.
Comfort
The comfort mentioned here refers to whether it will cause trouble to daily activities after wearing clothes.
Down jackets are filled with cashmere and are fluffy. The outer fabrics are all very thin and will not cause much trouble for daily activities. For example, outdoor workers wear down jackets to keep warm.
The coats, we just said that they are relatively thick and have a certain weight, there will be limitations in our activities.
Another is that there is not much need to wear too much clothing in down jackets with high down-filling volume. A simple bottoming and inner wear is sufficient. If you want to add a bit of a mix, you can add a sweater.
The performance of coats in this area is not so ideal. First, the coat is of the type of jacket. There are a lot of clothes to wear inside, sweaters as small as the inside, jackets as short as jackets or suit jackets. It feels more formal and gentlemanly, but daily activities are not so convenient.
Therefore, down jackets are superior to this one.
Collocation
The last and very important one is the collocation. In fact, we have said so much to pave the way for this one. We only need to dress for warmth and do not talk about what is the difference with salted fish. If it is so simple, it would be nice to wrap all the clothes on the body. . (Don't look at me, I'm already a salted fish)
Here we talk about coats first, because it's really nice. Coats can be used with many styles, but they all have a feeling of maturity.
If you are in the area of ​​Guangdong and Guangxi, you can wear a shirt or a bottom, put your shirt in your trousers, increase your waistline, put on a coat when you go out, and take off your coat indoors, which is both convenient and handsome.
If you're too cold, you can buckle all the buttons and it looks very neat.
If you want to add something new, the jackets and retro jackets we wore in the early winter can be our choice.
Coats can also wear a young feeling, a simple casual trousers and converse, wearing a cold cap, take off the coat, then completely on the street wearing style.
However, when it comes to everyone's favorite, it is definitely a gentleman who wears a suit to wear. Only by wearing it can he fully demonstrate the sense of neatness and layering of the coat. From a distance, he can feel the thick male hormone.
Different color coats can be matched with shirts of different colors, and the carefully designed neckline triangle area will be the best window for you to show gentleman temperament.
Simple white shirts can make a strong contrast with black vests. Plus brick-yellow coats, the fairies quickly catch your saliva.
If the temperature is high, my favorite is to wear a sweater with a high collar, which is not only warm but also very visual.
You can also use the color gradient to make the overall shape more texture. It is worth noting that corduroy, as a hot element of the season, can produce different chemical effects than turtleneck sweaters.
Then talk about down, mentioning down people will inevitably think of bloated and other adjectives. As we said above, in order to ensure that the down jacket has a better warmth, the more fluffy the down jacket, the better. But I don't know when it started, the tailoring style of down has more changes, becoming one of the weapon of winter.
Moncler, who has been a big hit this year, has become one of the regulars in the outfield for fashion week. The down jacket is reproduced with a loose cut, and with black buckles, the function is full of style.
Because of the resurgence of retro style, down jackets also have more room to play, and tailoring is not as fit as they used to be. They are beginning to drop shoulders and loosely cut.
Down vests and down scarves are also being used to create new patterns in the fashion scene. It is time to correct the old impression of down.
In all comparisons, if you want to wear a mature feeling, coats will be your best choice. If you want to wear a little street feeling and want to keep warm, newly designed down jacket is your best choice.
what? So you can not choose? It's not as good as a coat and down, so you don't have to pick it up.
