A winter without shearling simply doesn't feel like winter at all, but it'd be no exaggeration to say this year has seen the cozy material skyrocket to new heights. Twenty twenty-one will likely go down as the year shearling dominated the scene with brands like Bottega Veneta, Jacquemus, Miu Miu, and more featuring it heavily on everything from skirts to coats. But the frenzy hasn't stopped there—shearling accessories have also popped up virtually everywhere you can think of, the most talked-about of which being Telfar and Ugg's latest collaboration.

If staying as cozy as humanly possible is your primary objective this season, investing in a shearling piece (or two) would be a smart decision. There's a lot of options out there, so to help you out, I sorted through them all. Below, you'll find the shearling bags, shoes, and coats that are so good I've already sent them to my group chats. Also, a suggestion: Any of these would make a great gift.

Fashion Market Editor

Indya Brown is a fashion editor, stylist, and writer living in Los Angeles. While going to school at Columbia University in New York City, she got her feet wet in the fashion industry interning at Elle magazine, Harper's Bazaar, and New York magazine's The Cut. After graduating in 2016, she joined The Cut as a fashion assistant, eventually working her way up to fashion editor. There, she worked on a multitude of projects, including styling inbook feature stories for New York magazine's print issue, writing and pitching market stories for The Cut, and serving as fashion lead for The Cut's branded content. While New York has been her home for over 10 years, she moved to Los Angeles in the midst of the pandemic in 2020 for a new chapter. Now she is a fashion market editor for Who What Wear, focusing on emerging designers, rising trends on and off the internet, interior design, and BIPOC creatives and brands. Aside from her duties as a fashion market editor, Brown is also a freelance stylist and writer, working on national print and video commercial campaigns for Sephora, The Independent, and Cadillac. Her bylines also include Harper's Bazaar, Vox, and The New York Times. But once the computer goes down and the emails turn off, she's likely eating her way through Koreatown, hunting down vintage furniture, scoping out new outrageous nail designs to try, or taking a hot cycling class.
