Long gone are the days you could waltz out the house in a T-shirt - autumn is officially here, meaning layers are a must, particularly if you're venturing out on a daily dog walk. And any dog owners will know that what you wear for a walk is key - you want to be warm and cosy, but still have enough movement to play with your pooch and throw them a ball. That's why a padded gilet is the perfect middle-ground option, and Roman has a brilliantly stylish one available for £69.
The Chevron Quilted Hooded Gilet comes in black and midnight blue, and will be all the cosy warmth you need for autumn walks, while keeping your arms free. Best yet, if you use the code AFFLINK80 you can save an extra 25% on any orders from Roman over £80 - that's valid until 31.12.
24 and restrictions may apply, but it gives you plenty of time to shop around the site. You can even stack that on top of the extra 50% off discount - making for some really brilliant bargains.
