There’s a lot to consider when the time comes to reexamine your cold-weather wardrobe: Should you finally donate that old pullover from college? Have your favorite pants seen better days? Or do you simply need a few essentials to embrace the change of seasons in comfort and style?
No matter the reason, Cotopaxi’s fall collection has something for everyone. The certified B-Corp has been designing outdoor apparel and equipment since 2014, and commits to doing so in the most ethically sustainable way possible. Last week, the Utah label unveiled its latest seasonal arrivals in the form of jackets, pullover, pants, backpacks and more.
Similar to the rest of Cotopaxi’s outdoor roster, the cold-weather collection embraces color, capability and a commitment to doing good. Each piece uses organic, ethical or sustainably-derived materials, while garments are made in factories known for their top-tier workplace standards. And to facilitate transparency, Cotopaxi makes all this information publicly available online, empowering you to explore where your gear comes from and how it’s made.
Below, highlights from the 2022 fall collection that are worthy of your seasonal wardrobe.
Available in men’s and women’s sizes (and colors), the Capa Insulated Hooded Jacket represents Cotopaxi’s latest foray into sustainable materials. Made with a 100% recycled nylon shell and filled Gold P.U.R.E. insulation from PrimaLoft, the jacket blends sustainability and substance to deliver unrivaled comfort. Find it in a non-hooded version for $215.
A Fall-Inspired Cotton Flannel
Mero Flannel Shirt
Your autumnal wardrobe remains incomplete without a flannel, so why not invest in the Mero? It’s made with 100% organic, heavyweight cotton and features two drop-in chest pockets to store your essentials. Wear it for early-morning coffee runs or evenings around the campfire with friends.
Go-Anywhere, Do-Anything Ripstop Pants
Salto Ripstop Pant
Featuring a slim, versatile fit, the Salto pant puts comfort and convenience above everything so you can explore to your heart’s content. Details include a zippered fly, an elastic drawcord, D-rings for keys, back patch pockets and a zippered thigh pocket to store valuables on the go. Find it in men’s and women’s sizes, both of which embrace outdoors-inspired colors.
A Capable Carry-All Tote
Allpa 60L Gear Hauler Tote
When the time comes to haul your gear from one destination to the next, simply toss it in the oversized Allpa tote. The semi-structured design keeps the bag upright when loading and unloading, and grab handles make it easy to manage the weight. An exterior zippered pocket keeps your wallet and keys within reach while interior slip pockets organize equipment. Find it in five colors, or pick up a Del Día model that uses repurposed fabrics so no two bags are alike.
A Pack For Daily Commutes And Weekend Adventures
Torre 24L Bucket Pack
When your backpack quiver lacks an option that can do it all, pick up the Torre Bucket Pack. Complete with a 15-inch laptop sleeve, hauling handles, mesh webbing and even a removable waist belt, it’s designed to handle morning commutes and weekend climbs without batting an eye. Made from 100% recycled nylon and polyester ripstop, it’s currently available in five eye-catching colors.
