The cold snap that Britain experienced last week was an ominous foreshadowing of what was to come. We are now in the full thrashings of Storm Bert, bringing bitterly cold and wet weather. So, what can we do to help protect ourselves from the cold and rain?

While we don’t recommend that you go outside during intense weather spikes, if you want to get fully kitted out we’ve rounded up our top three picks from SealSkinz’ winter collection that will have you armoured up, especially as it’s in the Black Friday sale this year.

The top three outerwear essentials for stormy weather

1. Heacham Waterproof Cold Weather Icon Bobble Hat (20% off)

Who knew a simple bobble hat could be so high-tech? Available in seven colours, and three sizes, the Headcham’s eco-friendly, waterproof EcoTeflon coating and Aquasealz™ membrane makes water bead on the surface of the hat, before running off. Its micro-fleece liner means ultimate warmth.

2. Upwell Waterproof Heated Thermal Glove (40% off)

Upwell Waterproof Heated Thermal Glove: 40% off

Does everyone need a pair of heated gloves? Yes. It’s a treat for yourself that you won’t regret. One review notes: “These gloves are a good fit and so far have kept my hands really comfortable. I have Raynaud’s so I have cold hands all year round and these have helped me. The controls are easy to manage and can be turned out while being worn.”

3. Mautby Waterproof Warm Weather Ankle Length Sock with Hydrostop (20% off)

There’s nothing worse than having cold wet socks on a winter’s day. Labelled as their “lightest, thinnest waterproof sock” yet, the Mautby’s Aquasealz™ membrane releases body-generated heat and moisture, while denying the entry of water. What’s more, the Hydrostop™ prevents water trickling down the leg into the top of the sock.
