Macpac: How To Choose Your Puffer

As the temperatures drop, having the right puffer jacket can make all the difference. Whether you need a cosy layer for your morning commute or a high-performance jacket for winter adventures, understanding insulation is key. There are two main types of insulation: down and synthetic, each with its own advantages.

How to Choose the Right Puffer Jacket

When shopping for a puffer jacket, consider:

  • Climate – Down is best for dry cold conditions; synthetic is best for wet conditions.
  • Weight & Packability – Down is generally lighter and more compressible.
  • Activity Level – If you're active, easy to care synthetic insulation may be a better choice.
