If vegan outerwear was easy to find, then you probably wouldn’t need to read an article about it. Seeing as you’re here, you’ve likely discovered how challenging it can be, so here you’ll find the answers you’re looking for.
Once you take on the sustainable approach to life, many questions arise. What fabrics do you look for? No leather, no wool, no other materials that are not cruelty-free. Which brands are worth trusting? Certainly not those who claim to do the work but cover it in clever wording and strategic marketing. Is it even possible to shop ethically? Of course, it is!
Since I don’t want to cut corners when talking about the best vegan outerwear, I’ve taken my time and rounded up the 12 best suggestions you can find out there in the wide world of sustainable fashion. Enjoy!
THE MOST STYLISH VEGAN OUTERWEAR YOU CAN FIND OUT THERE:
1. JAYA LONG TRENCH COAT
Kicking off this list with the classic, mid-length trench coat reminding me of the Disney Channel years with Miley Cyrus, Demi Lovato, and Selena Gomez. As strange as it sounds, it just feels right, and you can’t argue about it.
Now in 2022, the Jaya Long Trench Coat is the perfect addition to any capsule wardrobe, thanks to its cute self-tie belt and removable hood for extra sass.
Made of cruelty-free and vegan materials, it would look fierce with a pair of Chelsea boots and neutral faux leather pants. Don’t doubt it. Not for a second.
2. DALIA MID LENGHT RAIN COAT
There’s the awful misunderstanding that wind and water-resistant jackets have to make you look like you’re layering up to go on some kind of fishing expedition. Well, guess what, they don’t.
If I can’t convince you, Dalia’s Raincoat sure will. Designed entirely from cruelty-free fabrics and in an all-black shade, it looks stylish yet simple. So whether it’s raining or not, you’ll be looking fantastic. You can just dance and sing ‘Rain On Me’ in case you are one of the few who actually loved the song. #SorryNotSorry
3. APPARIS STELLA COAT
You can expect a lot of people wanting to give you hugs in this comfy teddy-like coat. Dare to match it with a bright print blouse for brunch with girls, or layer over a white shirt and denim for extra boss vibes going to the office.
Made of certified recycled or upcycled materials, you can be 100% sure that you make a good choice, both for the planet and for yourself. Which, at the end of the day, is what we are all about. As my mom always said, make good choices. Although I’m not sure if she was talking specifically about fashion.

4. CHARISMA COAT
Word play at its finest, or what?! The Charisma Coat has a certain charisma that’s waiting to find a place in your closet between your camel coat and the white puffer jacket.
The vegan leather and rich chocolate tone are adorable, aren’t they? Meanwhile, I can’t help but see at least twelve different style equations solved. Wear with sneakers and a dress? Sure, why not? Chunky boots and knitted sweater? Do you even dare to ask? A pair of sunglasses and statement jewelry? Optional, but highly recommended.
Shopping for vegan leather outerwear sometimes really is a piece of cake. A very delicious one, nevertheless.
5. SEASHELL JACKET IN TAUPE
Once the weather gets cooler and days get shorter, you’ll see me in a similar style jacket, if not exactly this one.
Don’t put the blame on me, there are so many obvious reasons to follow my example. The color – I mean, it’s a forever classic. The materials – everything you could want and more. The waist-length silhouette – makes you feel warm yet doesn’t make you a walking jacket.
Yes, we could say it’s a bit pricey, but it’s hard to put a price on quality and on the best vegan outerwear brands.
6. BEATRIX SHORT VEST
There are some parts of the world that are actually quite pleasant during fall and winter, and in these places, people still take walks at this time of year.
If you’re fortunate enough to be in one of these places, don’t look up Noize vegan coats, just meet and greet their Beatrix Short Vest. Offered in the super hot gray blue and available in six different sizes, you can throw it on when in a rush and easily take off if you get hit by one of those random temperature spikes.
Follow Bella Hadid’s example and pair it with jeans, or opt for the formal variation that Mrs. Beckham likes – elegant pants + a big bag.

7. HARIETT VEGAN LEATHER JACKET
If two things can get you in the fall mood, they would be the pumpkin spice latte and the leather jacket.
The number of ways you can dress up or down the latter is way higher than all Kardashian controversies combined. The zip-front closure and gold finishings make it even more stylish. The vibe of this gorgeous piece? So classic yet sexy.
Plus, it seems that autumn 2022 will be all about the hoods, so get prepared in advance. Perfect for when you’re trying to get through town incognito, and really don’t feel like speaking to anyone.
8. EVIE WOMEN’S VEGAN WOOL COAT
Looking for a vegan black coat? Today is your lucky day! Matt & Nat are well-known for their vegan and cruelty-free pieces, so this one is a dream come true.
While I can talk about the notched lapel collar, self-tie belt, and large patch pockets on the front for the rest of the day, there’s no need to because the chances are you will fall in love as soon as you see this vegan wool coat.
Maybe the best advice you’ll receive today (besides that drinking 8 glasses of water is always a must): color-block with the so-hot-right-now green, pink or purple tracksuits if you happen to already have them in your capsule collection.
9. TIRAGE CROPPED JACKET IN ELDERFLOWER
If you’ve taken a closer look at my post with all A/W trends 2022 has to offer – you’ll agree that no color, crop, or print is in its traditional shape.
That’s why I want to introduce you to the Tirage Cropped Jacket from Unreal Fur. Whether you wear it to have breakfast with your family or on top of bridal gowns and formal dresses, it’s almost certain that you’ll fall in love in a matter of milliseconds.
Trust me, you’ll feel it like the warmest hug you’ve ever been given. And no, that’s not an exaggeration at all. This is the new definition of the vegan puffer jacket.

10. WOMEN’S RECYCLED VEGAN SHEARLING MOTO JACKET
Just like a partner who knows what you actually want even when you say the opposite, affordable vegan coats are not easy to find. But here’s the difference – the latter actually does exist!
Now picture the classic biker jacket, just upgraded with cozy, soft, and recycled vegan shearling that will keep you extra warm even when temperatures outside are screaming ‘Just go home!’.
Made in Italy from 100% recycled polyester and combining the two most unusual colors (black and white, LOL), I see it as Chrissy Teigen and Twitter. One can’t go without the other. Bonus tip: this will look ah-mazing with leggings.
11. BLACK BIRD COAT
Plush and deep black faux fur may seem like a combination you’d expect to be wearing in the matrix after taking the blue pill, but IRL you can’t go wrong with it.
The high collar and hook-snap closures and the long hemline make this coat a minimalist indulgence. Pair with chunky platform boots or flat sneakers, it doesn’t matter.
If you are the type of person who is already walking the long way to sustainability and versatility altogether, consider making this investment. Trust me when I say it will be totally worth it.
12. INYU JACKET
Take a look at the Inyu Jacket and tell me what you see. I see it too, the classic faux fur piece that’s been on the fashion menu for the last 15 years. Now take a look inside.
The jacket’s lining features the most central patterns and objects of artist’s Linda Puna painting ‘My Home’. Just like its title, Unreal Fur’s suggestion will make you feel at home when you put it on. If you do, keep the rest of your #OOTD as simple as possible.
Regardless of which one – or two – you opt for, one thing is for sure. Your outerwear will be taken care of. So now you can just focus on what you’re going to wear it with. It would be great if you could show me how you decide to pair yours. Hit me up on Instagram with your best looks and any questions or comments you might have. I’ll be waiting.
