Backcountry has a vast product lineup, but we combed through the site and found five deals that are absolute knockouts. Whether you’re looking to revamp your cold-weather wardrobe (you’ll be glad you did when that first frosty autumn day comes around), need some versatile everyday basics, or want a comfortable place to nap outside, Backcountry is the place to shop right now. 

Fjallraven Expedition Down Jacket in Navy, $338 (was $750) at Backcountry

Swedish brand Fjallraven is synonymous with top-tier outdoor gear, especially for cold weather. The Expedition Down Jacket is one of the brand’s premier winter layers, and now’s the perfect time to score a deal on this well-made coat ahead of chilly fall and winter conditions. The jacket’s large baffles stuffed with 700-fill down make it super warm, and its extra length and cinchable hem help you lock in heat. Better yet, the nylon exterior wears a DWR treatment, so this jacket won’t soak in light rain or snow flurries. Not into navy blue? The Deep Forest colorway is also discounted—it’s available for $375—although stock is running low.

The Vetiver/Kiwi colorway is available in sizes small, medium, large, and 2XL. The Dark Jungle colorway is also discounted ($51) and available in sizes small to 2XL, and the Trail Blue/Victory Red is available for $52, but sizing is more limited.
