    This jacket is exactly what I was looking for! I dont like paying crazy prices for products and this is a budget friendly solution. I love how warm it is and easily compresses.

    Great lightweight for the price

    Purchased a large even though I’m a medium so I could layer when necessary primarily using for winter chores (e.g. snow clearing). Im glad I purchased the large because the arm length is perfect even though I’m shorter than average. So if you’re a taller person with long arms I suspect it’s going to fit a bit short. For me, perfect. It’s super lightweight, comfortable and waterproof. We already had our first snow of the season so I was able to test it out. I consider it a great buy at this price point even if it lasts one season – which here in upper Wisconsin can last 6 months…..I’d be a

    Unbelievably Warm

    It’s almost impossible to describe how warm this coat is! I ride my scooter in fairly cold weather in the NYC area (~30 degrees F.) The cold air just doesn’t even touch me with this coat on. My face and hands get cold, but that’s it. I’m absolutely stunned by how light and incredibly warm this coat is. I never thought “light” and “warm” could exist in the same space; I’ve learned better now. I’ve never had so warm a coat! Highly recommended.

    Very good jacket !

    The jacket is very nice and it fits perfectly and is very comfortable and warm.very light weight you don’t know that you have it on but it keeps you warm just like a heavy jacket. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a good lightweight jacket and that will help you warm.

    Does its job well. Comfortable, warm and light. It wins on every necessary point. Do wish it had an inside upper pocket, but overall it’s a fantastic value and very functional. The style is standard.

    Good jacket

    These are good basic jackets. They aren’t super stylish but they do what they are supposed to, keep you warm, are comfy are roomy, and are washable. I have I think 3 in different colors at this point and they all stand up to heavy fall weather.

    Survived European Backpack Trip

    I bought this to take on a trip through the UK, France, and Italy. The jacket I purchased is yellow. I wanted something that would be adequately warm on a cool spring day so I wouldn’t have to bring another sweatshirt or have to pack long sleeve shirts. I also wanted something that folded up very small as I was only taking a backpack for 10 days. This jacket fit the bill perfectly. It comes with a bag which will compress the jacket down to about the size of a smaller shoe, but the way I found best to pack it was to fold it into quarters, flat, and put it on top of my clothes in my backpack. The jacket would compress almost completely flat, adding almost no bulk to my bag. It was like a magic trick how small it became. When I wanted to have it handy, but did not want to carry it, I would stick it through the handle of my backpack, pulling it halfway through, and it would stay there securely when I put my bag into overhead luggage storage on the Italo and Eurostar, making to easy to grab if I became cold. There were some cold and very windy evenings and nights when we were in London and Paris (50 degrees F, with a strong breeze coming off the Thames and Seine) and this jacket kept me warm with just a t-shirt on underneath. I encountered a brief rain shower on the Path of the Gods and stayed dry and the jacket dried pretty quickly. I can’t speak to how well it would perform in a heavy downpour as that was the only rain I experienced during my trip. Overall, this jacket was perfect for me and at the price point, I was not going to be upset if it got lost, stolen, or ruined. After being stuffed in my bag over and over and shoved into overhead storage, the jacket still looks brand new. Not to mention it looked stylish in all of the photos my wife and I took! I am 6’6” and weigh about 190lbs and I bought a large. It fit well without a lot of extra bulk and the sleeves were long enough for my wingspan. 10/10, would recommend!

    Light weight, warm and definitely wind proof…..a keeper!

    I was looking at another companies catalog with a jacket similar to this and their name-brand version sold for about $199. Given I have other jackets I wear as well and in that I could try this Amazon version for less than a ¼ of the price, I ordered it in Dark Green Large.Fit is perfect. Tailoring is excellent. Perfect stitching and fit. The “puffer” collar forms a gentle and firm seal around the neck against wind on th neck and coming down into the jacket.The sleeves are only elastic, but, are not too loose or tight and offer just enough room to be comfortable while being snug enough to block wind coming up the arms.This jacket includes 2 zip outer pockets that are very deep. No problem holding gloves or even the largest mobile phone securely.There’s a deep inner pocket too on left and right of the inside.A storage bag is includes and if you’re traveling, once inside it, this jacket will take up very little space.Fit at the bottom is loose, not elastic and no cord, but, they tailored this so it does not flare way out and it should avoid wind coming up inside the jacket.I tried it in a light sprinkle rain, the Nylon exterior did well to repel the drops. The good news is since this jacket is light weight, it’ll dry fast either hung up or into a dryer on low.A down jacket it is not, but, it sure felt as light and warm as any down jacket I’ve owned in the past.5 Stars. A keeper the first time I tried it on during a windy, overcast, damp and chilly day. It passed my tests 100%.

    crazy good value

    Excellent value. I’ve had this jacket for 2 years and it still looks like new. Very lightweight, very warm, quick dry when wet. Does not pack as small as my down Ghost Whisperer, but my down jacket was $350, I paid $22 for this one. My only complaint? maybe too warm. Not really a late Spring/Early Fall jacket – too warm and quick to sweat with even mild exertion unless it is really cool. Great with a rain shell in early wet winter weather. Top notch quality. Recommended.

    Lightweight

    I purchased matching ones for my parents. A large for my dad and a xs for my mom, they loved them! They fit perfectly on both and the quality was really good. It’s lightweight but kept them warm on Christmas day. The shade of the light brown looks like a high end jacket. Highly recommend.

    Fair deal

    Weight and Comfort (5/5): As advertised, this puffer jacket is incredibly lightweight, making it perfect for transitional weather. It’s comfortable to wear, and the lack of bulkiness allows for easy layering, which is a big plus.Warmth (4/5): Given its featherweight construction, I was pleasantly surprised by its ability to provide adequate warmth. It’s great for chilly mornings and cool evenings, but I wouldn’t rely on it for extreme cold conditions.Packability 4/5): This jacket’s packability is a standout feature. It folds into a compact size, making it ideal for travel or as a backup jacket that you can easily stow away when not needed.Versatile Design (2/5): The jacket’s simple, minimalist design makes it versatile. It pairs well with various outfits, from casual to semi-formal, adding a touch of style to any ensemble.Cons:Durability (4/5): While the lightweight design is advantageous for comfort, it does seem to compromise the jacket’s durability. The fabric feels somewhat delicate, and I’ve noticed a few loose threads after only a short period of use.Limited Cold Protection (4/5): Despite its decent warmth, this puffer is not suitable for harsh winter conditions. It’s best suited for milder weather or as a mid-layer during colder months.Price (3/5): The price is moderate, but considering the concerns about durability, some might find it a bit steep for what it offers. There are more robust options available at a similar price point.Conclusion:In conclusion, the lightweight puffer jacket I purchased offers a mix of positives and negatives. Its featherweight design, comfort, warmth for moderate weather, and packability are definite highlights. However, concerns about durability and limited suitability for extremely cold weather may be drawbacks for some users. If you’re looking for a versatile, lightweight jacket primarily for transitional seasons and are willing to handle it with care, this option might suit your needs. Nonetheless, if durability and cold-weather protection are top priorities, you may want to explore other options at a similar price range.

    Great purchase!

    Awesome jacket for the price.Unique and different design. Get a ton of compliments on it.Fit well. I usually wear a XL in ‘ ‘puffer’ jackets. So I ordered one and was too big. Returned it and reordered a size LG and it fits perfect!!Only thing I wish it had , is a draw string on the waist ( like my HAWKE & CO. puffer jacket) to keep the wind / cold from under.But it does the job!

    It was worth it!

    My boyfriend wanted a jacket for Christmas and I didn’t like what was in the stores. This coat fit the bill and was just what I wanted. I was worried it wouldn’t be as it appeared, or not as warm as he needed. I needn’t havecqorried–he lived it and has told me repeatedly how light and warm it is! So pleased with this purchase!

    Good quality at a good price

    Comfortable, light weight, and relatively warm puffer jacket at an excellent price. I’m 5’9″ at 155lbs but my Medium felt a bit small (tight around shoulders and chest). Also wish it had an outside chest zipper pocket and drawstring at the bottom to tighten around the waist for more warmth.

    very good value

    very good overall and warm for the price. the main problem is there’s no drawstring at the bottom / it’s not tight at the bottom at all so if you use it as an outer layer for walking outside in cold/wind, your chest will be warm but cold air will get all the way in through the bottomotherwise i’d say it looks just as good as any more expensive jacket

    I can’t believe how good this jacket is

    I needed a jacket quickly, read the reviews, and decided to take a chance. This is without argument the very best thing I have ever gotten on Amazon. It’s incredibly well made, looks great, fits great, and keeps me warm and dry. Its inner pockets are perfect for the phone and cash or cards. I met my friend on a trip who had a Patagonia puffer jacket. The two are almost identical, and I bet mine cost a tenth. This will be one of the best buys you’ve ever made, and it’s the perfect gift.

    The insides pockets are great!

    My wife talked me into trying the puffer jacket for future vacations. I love it! It’s a handy jacket to throw on over a sweatshirt. I especially love the deep inside pockets that are great for my cellphone and other things. They don’t have zippers, but unless I get turned upside down I won’t be losing anything from them.

    Not as warm as hoped for

    Surprisingly nice and comfy jacket for the price, however not as warm as I had hoped, so will be purchasing something more substantial for the really cold winter days. Great jacket for somewhat cooler temps, just not for the 30’s and 40’s without a lot of layering underneath

    5.0 out of 5 stars

    Yeah

    Its nice ya know it is what it is, it fits pretty loose around the mid section and is kinda baggy, it’s not all that warm, I wore it in about 38 degree weather and it wasn’t near enough, for me. I probably wouldn’t buy another one but I’m not necessarily unhappy with it. I’ll just work around it.

    The jacket fits great. I ordered a large. I am 5’10 and 180#. I can comfortably wear a hoodie under the jacket and it is very warm. Great for traveling as it doesn’t take up much room in a backpack. It comes with a small sack to put it in but I haven’t used it. Definitely recommend.

    Philmont Approved!!!!

    I purchased two of these jackets as a lightweight backpackable jacket for our 12-day Philmon trek in the Sangre Cristo mountains of Northern New Mexico. During our trek, we had 2.5 days of rain in altitudes over 9,000 feet. The lowest temps were mid to high 40’s, windy and wet! These jackets did an outstanding job of keeping us both dry and warm. In fact, during one particularly heavy rain, I discovered my old Army ACU wet weather top was in fact no longer waterproof. I pulled off the top and this jacket which I had underneath my wet weather top was soaked in the front, back, and arms. However that moisture/wetness never touched my skin. This jacket also served as part of my pillow setup and in spite of the exterior being wet, and in the absence of NNM’s low humidity, the jacket dried quickly, and I was able to use it as my pillow. I would without hesitation recommend, and purchase these jackets again. When I say “Philmont Approved”, just know that means more than someone’s opinion after taking it out of the package and posing in front of a mirror. To recap the benefits:1) Lightweight: The jacket packs easily into the included bag and was attached to a carabiner on the outside of my backpack. It stayed secure through bushwhacking trails, hiking through trees that tried to grab everything, and scaling up and down some steep mountainsides. My son kept his bag attached to the loop in the jacket and that worked very well for him.2) Water resistant: We both wore these during a few days of sprinkling rain and 2.5 days of legit rain- rain. Water never breached the inside of the jacket and made contact with our skin. That is a win!3) Warm: This jacket kept us warm in the very cool mountain air of Northern New Mexico, both dry and wet weather. I’m not going to tell you that this jacket will keep you warm in freezing temps because we did not encounter that kind of weather. But I will tell you that when it was in the mid 40’s and my sleeping bag zipper was broken, and I was quite cold, I put this jacket on (and lost part of my pillow) but was warm and toasty!4) Quality: The zippers work great. Zippered external pockets were a huge plus to reduce the chance of important things (like snacks or other small doodads that I used) from falling out and being lost. The deep interior pockets were great for holding my phone (for pictures). The only issue I had was that I tore the loop out. It was dark and I was having a hard time getting the bag unknotted and broke the loop by force. It wasn’t a failure on the jacket – it was a failure on my patience!5) Dries quickly: After it got wet underneath my “notta wet weather top” it dried quickly and was able to fulfill it’s purpose as part of my pillow setup.Summary: This is a solid choice for a lightweight outer shell for cooler weather, and will work even if there is some rain in the forecast. It is lightweight and breathable enough to work as a sub-layer if you have a lightweight rain jacket to help break the wind. I did not notice the wind getting through this jacket, so I believe it serves well in that regard. Also, if it survived my teenage Scout and all his rambunctious rock climbing and goofing around, then it should serve you well. I purchased the Dark Olive Green because it’s similar to the Ranger Green clothes I wear for Boy Scouts, and my son purchased the Light Brown because he likes that color. Both colors look good. The Light Brown is similar to Coyote Brown, but a little darker. The OG version was also cheaper at the time of purchase.

    I don’t often leave reviews, but this jacket deserves it. I bought for a trip to Canada because it’s lightweight and packable. I didn’t expect much, but it proved me wrong. It kept me warm in Canada and since being home it has kept me warm while backpacking, camping, hiking, and those cold walks across the parking lot at work. It fits well and cleans easily. I’ve washed it 2x now on cold and hang dry. It has held up well.
