Snow Protection: Hollister Desert Springs


As I’ve just walked through what was technically a blizzard, I’ve decided I need to renegotiate my winter wardrobe and buy some warmer stuff.  So much for global warming eh?  Anyway, as per the usual I went over the top and started looking for the simplest, most practical and warm overcoat I could find starting with brands like North Face, then decided the look just doesn’t work – regardless of how cold it is.

So back to Hollister and found this little gem – the Desert Springs hooded sweater.  I highly doubt it’ll shield your skin from the wet and snow, but it will certainly keep you warm with its fur lining.  I don’t believe it’s available from stores in the UK (which isn’t relevant anyway since nothing is ever in stock there anyway) but it can be ordered from their online store which will ship you it direct from the US.

Priced at £160 + £20 shipping.  Click here to buy it from Hollister.
