Each season brings its own unique weather, and fall is no different. In fact, autumn can display some of the most unique and quick-changing weather of any season. One minute it’s unseasonably warm and rainy, then the next day it turns cool, crisp, and on the verge of snow. Depending on where you live or where you choose to adventure, you need to be prepared for different situations involving uncontrollable, turbulent weather conditions.
When spending time outdoors in fall, whether multi-day adventuring or road-tripping through Colorado, it's important to wear outdoor clothing that provides warmth and protection from the elements. Having a proper fall jacket for different weather conditions will make trail-to-town exploring a lot more comfortable. Remembering to layer appropriately is also key to being able to enjoy whatever autumn throws at you.
Read on to learn about the three types of fall jackets and how to layer to stay warm and dry in even the nastiest of storms.
A rain jacket is a great option for venturing out in the outdoors when you're expecting foul weather. Considering they're made of waterproof fabrics, rain jackets can sometimes be heavy, have a thick, rubbery feel, or lack breathability. That means that you may feel uncomfortable, clammy, and overheated underneath.
However, KÜHL rain jackets are made with carefully designed waterproof and breathable fabrics developed to eliminate mentioned flaws. While the water stays sealed off, the outerwear doesn't retain moisture on the inside either. KÜHL rain jackets are also lightweight, so you can easily bring them on your journeys in case of unexpected rainy days. Thanks to the quality fabric and lots of original design features, you can stay comfortable and enjoy your hike instead of worrying about how to stay dry.
The Stretch Voyager™ Jacket is an ever-so-soft and comfortable jacket that will keep you protected from the rain. This stylish jacket is not only designed for hiking in the rain, but for everyday use as well. With features such as a waterproof exterior, a breathable membrane that’s delicate on the skin, an adjustable hood with a reinforced brim, plenty of pocket space, and reflective trims for visibility; that's what makes this jacket one of the best fall jackets. Since this is a lightweight jacket, it’s a great option for day or evening adventures in unpredictable weather.
THE ONE™ SHELL is a high-performance outer layer designed for superior comfort and functionality. Made with advanced lightweight technology, it offers exceptional softness and stretch.

Fleece jackets are must-have fall jackets for every outdoor explorer. With its fuzzy polyester interior, fleece is designed to keep the adventurer warm and cozy. It’s always a good idea to have a fleece jacket at hand during fall because they're stylish enough for any occasion and the amount of warmth and comfort they provide is unmatched.
Fleece jackets are ideal to wear alone when the weather cools, and really nice to wear as a mid-layer when the temperature drops. This is a comforting option for camping, especially during chilly nights by the fire. Fleece is durable, delightfully soft, and ecologically friendly; perfect for those who need to stay warm during fall adventuring.
The INVIGORATR™ MERINO CREW is crafted from superfine Merino, offering a softer touch on your skin, while its innovative AERO™ KNIT construction captures micro air pockets to enhance warmth without extra bulk.

Insulated jackets rightfully earned their spot among the best fall jackets for harsh weather conditions. These jackets are made to perform through the rain and wind with optimal durability. They are ideal to wear as a top layer when you know the weather is going to be cold and unpredictable.
An insulated jacket can stand up to any adventure that involves hiking into high altitudes, camping in the backcountry, or traveling during the late fall as temperatures begin to plummet.
