Winter is well and truly here, and to say that I dread stepping out into the icy chill every morning is a severe understatement, besties. I know this is an excellent excuse to wear all your warm clothes and lay inside in the foetal position binge-watching TV, but if your workplace has an enforced work-from-office policy (aka borderline torture), puffer jackets are where it’s at when it comes to on your commute. Puffers have really exploded in popularity over the last few years, and it’s not hard to see why.
I mean, who wouldn’t want to be as warm as a freshly-made burrito no matter where they are? Now, I’m on the hunt for the perfect one to buy, so saddle up because you’re about to come on this journey with me. Hopefully, because you actually want to. I’ve done some digging and found loads of options, as not all puffer jackets are the same.
Some are filled with polyester, some with down, some with more ethical down (as in, there is some form of transparency around where the down comes from), and some with synthetic down. Generally speaking, the polyester fill choices can be great for general cool temps, but if you’re, say, heading into some sub-zero snow situation, you might want to get a down-filled puffer. Then again, if the polyester fill is dense enough, it can be a great vegan option too — just be sure to do some research before smashing that add to cart button.
Anyway, here’s a bunch of ops for ya. In our search for the best puffers for women, we found.
