The 2018 discovery of the so-called “Amazon coat” — a tailored-but-boxy, heavily-pocketed down jacket manufactured by a company called Orolay — was a turning point for the e-commerce giant’s status as a hub of fashion discovery. While apparel had been part of the site’s inventory since 2002, the emergence of a previously unknown brand out of Amazon’s literal jungle of sometimes-questionable options gave a legion of shoppers “hidden gem” fever. Suddenly we were on a collective hunt for the next Amazon buried treasure — like a $3 “pearl” barrette, a Baywatch-inspired maillot, or a cropped tie-dye t-shirt.

However, while we’ve been out combing Amazon for the next big thing, Orolay quietly became a legit brand — complete with high-end product photography, a vague trefoil logo (nothing to see here, Adidas!), and a host of new puffy-coat styles in the vein of the techy original. What was once an anonymous entity in a sea of outerwear options has evolved into a full-fledged design operation in the business of making covetable and competitively-priced outerwear. A recent scan of their dedicated Amazon shop yielded a ton of on-point winter coats. So if you’re ready to do some browsing in consideration of this upcoming winter’s new puffer, peep Orolay’s newest designs — and prepare to start another viral fashion phenomenon

A subtle sleeve pocket makes this simple and streamlined topper a great option for dashing out the door on a quick walk or errand. (There’s one lone review so far, but it’s glowing: “I’m very happy with this coat so far. It fits just right, giving a shape to my body that’s flattering while also leaving room to layer under it and be comfortable when I sit down. Definitely recommend this, will buy again!”)

This hooded, knee-skimming style has cozy thumbholes and a 90% down fill for a super-insulated winter fit. “For the price, [this coat] is well worth the money,” said reviewer Talia. “I love the details, such as the soft cuffs with thumb holes and the decorative back bottom buttons. The coat is both slimming, and looks expensive.”

Strategically placed quilting gives this slim, a-line style an elegant and elongated shape. The hood is removable for days where you don’t need the extra protection. “I love this coat. It’s warm, but not bulky at all,” claimed Amazon user AEMW. “I like the fact that the hood is removable and also, that the side pockets snap closed — no more lost gloves!”

A contrast inner lining is the design touch we didn’t know we needed on this cozy, rectangular style. Ginormous pockets made carrying a separate handbag almost unnecessary. (Almost.) Amazon user Patricia raved: “Love this coat. Perfect fit. Looks so warm and sure it will be. Love the big front pockets. Love the decorative zippers on the sleeves.”

Favorite style alert! We love the shorter hemline, belted waist, and nipped-in cuffs on this hooded coat. (We just can’t decide between the white and the navy blue.) Another reviewer agrees with us: “I’m in LOVE with this coat! Looks beautiful on.”
