Temperatures are dropping fast, but seasoned shoppers know exactly what that means—the Black Friday deals are heating up as I write. As an outdoor gear outfitter, I’ve fielded countless questions from concerned shoppers looking to stay warm in the coming months or find the perfect gifts for their loved ones. I take this time seriously, so when I heard that Eddie Bauer has hundreds of items on sale, you better believe that I rushed to check it out.
With so many deals to choose from, I’m here to prevent holiday stress by steering you toward the best of the best when it comes to outdoor gear and apparel. From cold-weather staples like packable down jackets and cozy mittens, to casual favorites like warm flannels and outdoor-ready sneakers, there’s something for everyone, including the gearheads in your life. Discounts are up to 75 percent off while supplies last, but don’t wait too long—these deals won’t last long, and it’s only getting chillier.

Amongst a sea of tough-to-beat deals, a few really caught my eye. These cozy fleece joggers are a soup season staple, and they’re a no-brainer while marked down to just $16. Once you’re ready to get outdoors, stay toasty with this fleece-lined version of Eddie Bauer’s popular hiking pants. Make sure to pair your warm layers with a waterproof shell on wet days—this stylish waterproof trench coat, on sale for $138, and these insulated, waterproof boots, currently just $52, will ensure that your layers don’t become a wet (and cold) blanket.
It’s a great time to think about holiday gifting, too. I’ve received this handy packable backpack, currently $24, and a camp-friendly Dopp kit, on sale for $42, as gifts over the years, and they’re both still key pieces in my everyday gear rotation.

I’ll say it until I’m red in the face—a good layering system is the trick to surviving even the coldest days. That doesn’t mean you need to wear only high-tech outdoor gear, though. This women’s thermal henley, on sale for $42, and men’s knit crew, currently 40 percent off, offer impressive warmth in a classic, stylish package. For truly frigid days, I’ve become a convert to fleece-lined pants. I was worried that they’d be too warm, but the thin layer of fleece in these water-resistant hiking pants, 30 percent off, or stretchy leggings, marked down to $70, is wildly cozy without causing me to overheat.

There are arguments to be made for both down and synthetic insulation—down is unbeatable for maximum warmth in a small and light package. However, unlike down, synthetic fill doesn’t lose any of its insulating properties while wet. For me, that means I’m wearing something like this Microlight Hooded Down Jacket, on sale for $96, on cool, dry days. Then, when things start to get seriously cold and dreary, I’m reaching for a synthetic-fill, water-resistant jacket like the Boundary Pass Parka. Alternatively, turn any jacket into a cozy, snow day-ready pick by putting a rain jacket over top. If packability is key, this Rainfoil Rain Jacket, on sale for $66, is the way to go, while the Cloud Cap Rain Jacket, discounted to $108, provides heavy-duty protection.
