Frequently asked questions
Are long puffer coats warm?
Yes. A long down coat is the warmest coat for its weight, especially with a hood.
What is fill power?
Fill power measures how lofty the down is. A higher number means lighter, warmer insulation.
What is the difference between a puffer and a parka?
A puffer is quilted and filled with down; a parka is a longer, hooded cold weather coat that is often down filled too.
How do I wash a long puffer coat?
Follow the care label; many down coats can be washed on a gentle cycle with a down detergent and tumble dried low.
Can petite women wear a long puffer?
Yes. Choose a fitted waist and a length that ends at mid calf so the coat does not swamp you.
