Nikkie Urmston Faux Fur Ski Jacket in Cream

A plush faux fur winter jacket in soft cream, cropped and cut in generous proportions, with a quilted hood that's easily removable. Sorona insulation beneath the faux fur outer and elasticated cuffs and hem seal the warmth in, so it cocoons without weight.

Cream faux fur against snow, fairy lights and a glass of something cold is simply one of the great looks of a winter holiday, and the Urmston delivers it without a single animal fibre. It is the jacket of terrace lunches on sunny days, village wandering, fondue nights and the airport home, worn over knitwear, over the gold base layer, over whatever the evening asks.

Most women who buy it find it does the school run, the frosty market and most of the winter too.

FAQ

Can you ski in the NIKKIE Urmston?
It isn't sold as a ski jacket. The Urmston has no waterproof rating or piste features, though it is warm. It is NIKKIE's après-ski and lifestyle jacket, designed for everything around the skiing: terraces, village evenings and cold days at home. Pair it with one of NIKKIE's technical jackets for the mountain itself.

Is the fur real or faux?
Faux, entirely. The pile is 100% polyester, as are the lining and padding, so the jacket is completely animal-free while keeping the plush, dense feel of the real thing.

How warm is this faux fur jacket?
Warm in the way a teddy coat is warm: the dense faux fur traps heat, Sorona padding sits beneath it, and the elasticated cuffs and hem stop the cold getting in. For dry, cold days and evenings it is genuinely cosy; it is not built for wet weather.

How does the Urmston fit?
Loose and relaxed by design, with a cropped length that sits at the hip. Take your usual size; the teddy volume is the look, and there is easily room for knitwear underneath.

What do you wear with a cream faux fur jacket on a ski trip?
Almost anything, which is its charm. Over a base layer and ski pants at lunch, over jeans and a rollneck in the evening, and it is particularly good over gold or black for après. It also earns its place at home all winter, well beyond the trip.
