H&M's minimal label Arket is celebrating the fall season by rolling out a line of jackets and coats for humans and their four-legged companions. Dog owners living in cooler climates know the struggle of making sure a pet gets its exercise throughout the winter months. While it can be hard to get outside when temperatures near freezing, Arket's line of matching coats is attempting to make this transition a little easier.
The line features a neutral color palette that's both light weight and sustainable, boasting colors like ivory, brown khaki and black. What's more is that all these coats have been translated into smaller sizes for pets, meaning owners can look adorably stylish while matching their dogs.
