The coat for long winters, for women who go out every day when the snow has held since November
Huppa designs its coats in Tallinn, where winter starts in November and lets go in March. The Minna coat is its most insulated women's model: a 100% recycled polyester fill of 300 g/m² under a windproof outer fabric with a 10,000 mm waterproof, 10,000 g/m²/24h breathable membrane, taped seams and a soft polyamide lining that slides over the layers beneath.
It is worn as a 3rd layer, over a base layer and a fleece. Straight cut, hip-covering length, waist adjustable with an elastic toggle drawcord. Sizes S to 3XL, i.e. EU 36 to 48 on the manufacturer's chart.
Features: adjustable hood, adjustable cuffs, reflective elements on the fabric.
Grand-Froid expert's view
Tallinn, a February morning at −24 °C / −11 °F, wind off the Gulf of Finland in the old town streets. This coat is for the weeks when the cold never lifts, not for a single outing: thirty days in a row of the same commute, the same wait for the tram. Tighten the waist cord before you leave: that is what stops cold air climbing up under the hem.
What is it designed for?
A coat for winters when you go out into the cold every day, in a Nordic city or on a long stay in the North.
- Living through a Nordic winter: Tallinn, Helsinki, Stockholm — daily commutes, waiting at the stop, shopping after dark at 4 pm
- A week in Lapland or Québec in January: Rovaniemi Christmas market, a walk on the frozen river — long hours outdoors, often standing still
- Standing outdoors for long spells: outdoor event, ice rink, children's match — the 300 g fill holds warmth when the body no longer produces it
- Wet snow and cold rain: north-east France, Scotland, coastal Norway — the membrane and taped seams keep the fill dry
- Plus sizes: up to 3XL, with the same construction and the same fill from S to 3XL
Thermal protection
The 300 g/m² fill traps a thick layer of air around the torso and keeps its insulating power when the garment gets damp, which down does not: you stay warm in wet snow and in dry cold alike. The outer fabric blocks the wind, the membrane keeps water out and lets vapour through, and the waist cord and adjustable cuffs close the air gaps. The comfort range runs from −5 °C / 23 °F to −30 °C / −22 °F; the lower end assumes a merino base layer and a fleece underneath, standing still. The coat insulates the torso: hands, head and feet need their own protection.

Care & Durability
- Machine wash, delicate cycle, mild detergent, no fabric softener
- Before washing: close the zips, turn the coat inside out
- Wash only when visibly dirty: the membrane and the fill wear with every cycle
- Air dry or tumble dry on low according to the label, never on a radiator
- Between washes, steaming refreshes the fabric without stressing it
- Off season: store clean and dry, without compressing the fill

Why choose this Huppa Minna women's winter coat?
Because it opts for thick insulation without giving up the membrane: 300 g of fill that keeps its loft when wet, a fabric that blocks water and wind, taped seams, in a straight cut that leaves room for the layers underneath.
The three-layer system:
- 1st layer — base: next to the skin. Captures body heat and moves perspiration outwards.
- 2nd layer — mid layer: insulates and holds warm air around the body. Fleece, knit or thermal top.
- 3rd layer — outer (role of this product): shell, softshell jacket or padded gilet. Blocks wind and holds warmth. In sustained rain, a hardshell takes over.
Three hundred grams of fill are worth nothing if cold air gets in at the waist: the drawcord is part of the insulation.
* Indicative temperature. Perceived warmth varies with activity, body type, humidity, wind and the layers worn underneath.
