Puffer jackets that will see you through the winter in style
The puffer jacket has long been a fashion favourite and for good reason. In a country where the colder months can seem to last forever, it’s hardly surprising that the comforting, duvet-like and waterproof qualities of a puffer coat are so appealing and have become a steadfast addition to today’s capsule wardrobes.
Of course, they are a sensible purchase, but they’re arguably chic and stylish too. With roots in winter sports, the first puffer was invented by Eddie Bauer in 1936 after the clothing designer caught hypothermia during a mid-winter fishing trip. Since then, the jacket has been reworked and reinvented countless times and has seamlessly transitioned from a solely technical item to an off-duty luxury garment held in high regard by the fashion elite.
With everyone from Moncler to Canada Goose, Prada to Alaïa releasing iterations of puffer coats and jackets this season, there is no end of options to fit your personal style. Some are heavy-duty, others medium; some are cropped, others long; some are neutral, others bright – all are ideal for wrapping up in on a chilly morning.
Ahead of the new season, we’ve scoured the high street and designer collections to bring you the most stylish puffer jackets available to shop right now. Each design is great for everyday living and a jacket you will turn to year after year. Continue scrolling to shop our edit of the best puffer coats and jackets for autumn/winter 2024.
