Puffers, Wool Coats, and Rain Jackets Are More Than Half Off at Amazon This Weekend — Shop the 43 Best Deals

There’s no denying the chill of fall has officially set in — which means winter is right around the corner. With the coldest months of the year on deck, it’s time to bring your raincoats, vests, and parkas out of hibernation. But if looking at your fall and winter wardrobe for the first time in months turns out to be an underwhelming experience (maybe a few items have holes in them, or maybe your style has simply evolved), it might be time to shop for some new gear. Lucky for you, Amazon is hosting its Prime Early Access Sale on Tuesday, October 11 and Wednesday, October 12.

Even better news? Amazon has already leaked thousands of deals, so you can score major discounts this weekend before the retailer's first-ever October Prime Day even begins. Winter favorites, like vests, puffer jackets, parkas, wool coats, and rain jackets from brands like Columbia, Cole Haan, and Eddie Bauer are up to 64 percent off right now. But no need to spend the rest of your day combing through Amazon — we’ve already done that and rounded up the very best deals below.

From sleek and stylish peacoats to cozy, moisture-wicking ski jackets, our list includes something for every type of traveler this season. These options are just as comfy as they are versatile, and many of them are perfect for packing on your next ski trip, northern lights trek, or journey home for the holidays. Whether you're shopping for a loved one or for yourself, you won’t want to miss out on these early savings or the chance to beat the Black Friday rush, since these prices appear to rival those typically seen during the major shopping holiday.

The best part about the Amazon Prime Early Access Sale is that it's not exclusive to Amazon Prime members. However, the best and majority of deals will only be available to members — luckily, there’s still time to sign up for a subscription or free 30-day trial.
