Fitting, fashionable, functional and flexible ― these are the words best describing Fila’s trendy yet practical winter wear, according to Fila Korea.

“Our jackets are designed to be slimming and fashionable, while being warm,” Lee Ji-hyun, head of Fila’s design team. “This is why we’re sure we can offer a trendy yet practical option for all of our customers.”

As Lee mentioned, the most prominent feature of Fila’s down jackets is that they are light and stylish, while at the same time filled with 300 grams or more of down filling.

In addition to the Terra Down 2.0 being advertised by Sohn Yeon-jae, Fila has unveiled a number of trendy winter jackets priced from 190,000 won to 640,000 won.

The jackets are also technologically designed to minimize heat loss, the company said.

In particular, the sports-type, duck-down jacket, which is one of the most popular items from Fila, is priced at just under 200,000 won, and uses high-tech coating materials to become warmer and more resilient against water and wind.

The premium long down coat for women comes in a youthful and dynamic design that includes a detachable racoon fur neckpiece. This jacket is somewhat pricey at 568,000 won, but customers say it’s worth it.

Other coats for women come in a “princess-style,” also with a detachable hood. They come in beige, navy and khaki.
