Switch Top 5 Mens Jackets for October

So we've finally managed to crawl out from underneath the piles of boxes that have been arriving at Switch HQ over the last month, and can now start to bring you the highlights of our Autumn/Winter collection. Each month we try to bring you a variety of top 5 essentials focusing on one area of our store - compiled from a combination of our own recommendations and our best selling pieces.

As the temperature is starting to drop, we thought we'd start with mens jackets:

1. Penfield Kasson Jacket (Navy)/Penfield Kasson Jacket (Melton Wool) - a jacket that should need no introduction, this best selling piece from Penfield Clothing has been around a while now but continues to deliver season on season. Now available in a brand new Melton Wool finish, adding extra warmth and style to an already classic jacket shape.
2. Obey Iggy Jacket - The Autumn/Winter 09 take on the M65 style military jacket from Obey Clothing, that gives one of the best looking fits in this style of jacket, whilst offering stacks of warmth and comfort. Features Obey's brand new subtle pinbadge branding.
3. Comune Derek Jacket - A brand new jacket from a brand new label - born out of the ashes of Ambiguous clothing, 'The Comune' have focused on unique design features across their range for this season. This baseball style jacket features loads of neat detailing, with graffiti print lining, safety pin style branding and waxed drawcord hood - also one of the best looking jackets we've seen all season!
4. Carhartt Deluxe Jacket - The first thing that will strike you when you see this jacket, is how amazingly warm it looks! With a 'sheeps wool style' lining, this jacket will certainly be a valuable asset in the coming months - combined with all the usual great fit and quality that we come to expect from Carhartt Clothing, this is a real winner!
5. Penfield Rockford Jacket - Penfield are specialists in the outdoor clothing market, so I suppose its hardly surprising they feature twice in our top 5! The Rockford Jacket is another classic, best selling piece, fully insulated with a goose-down mix, and topped off nicely with the plaid detailing to the top of the shoulders.
