Winter dog walking mostly happens in the dark, on pavements beside moving cars, which makes visibility as much a feature as warmth. Reflective detailing across this padded jacket picks up headlights and torch beams from a distance, and the windproof polyester shell handles the part of British weather that actually makes dogs cold, which is wind moving through a coat rather than the temperature on its own.

Under the shell sits PP cotton wadding, the light synthetic filling that traps air rather than adding bulk, so the jacket insulates without stopping a dog moving properly. Hidden traction holes let a lead clip through to the harness underneath, which is the small detail that saves you choosing between keeping the coat on and having a secure attachment point. It fastens quickly, comes in graffiti and geometric prints, and the size range runs from S all the way up to 6XL.

Ignore the weight-based size chart. The manufacturer scales this by body weight in catties, which tells you very little that is useful, because two dogs of identical weight can be entirely different lengths. Measure along the spine from collar to tail base, and around the chest just behind the front legs, then send us both figures and we will match the size before you order.

What the options mean. Sizes run from S to 6XL — £12.99 for the smallest, £17.99 for the largest.

Who it's for: Dogs walked along roads through dark winter mornings and evenings, across a size range covering small terriers to genuinely large breeds.
