Prepare for the winter season by adding a puffer coat to your wardrobe. Practical, cozy and equally stylish, they’re a staple coat that will keep you warm through the colder months. This guide will help you to find the perfect puffer or down coat along with some of my favorite options to shop.
If you’re searching for your first puffer coat, I’d recommend picking up a classic version in black. It’s very versatile, so you can wear it with almost any outfit, casual or formal. I often wear mine with chunky combat boots and black pants or comfortable trousers and a pair of sneakers. It was also the perfect coat for my ski trip last March in the French Alps.
A long puffer coat is another timeless option if you live in a particularly cold climate and need the extra protection. If puffer coats feel too voluminous for you, try a cinched version that will enhance your shape and make you feel less puffy. For a sportier look, I’d opt for a water-repellent, glossy puffer that will add some shine to your look. Another option for anyone over black is a classic neutral puffer that will add a pop of “color” to your wardrobe.
Finding a high-quality coat on a budget can be challenging, but there are many affordable puffer coats. Less expensive options might always not keep you as warm, so always check the product description to see the suggested temperature for wearing that coat. Layering will also help to protect you from the cold if your puffer is thinner.
