Glowing review: "I bought this puffer to replace my old winter coat, and I’m so happy I did. The coat is exceptionally made, and though it took a little getting used to (since I’ve never had a puffer before), it has quickly become an everyday favorite. It fits true to size and looks fantastic whether dressed up or down. The quality is outstanding, and it kept me warm in -20°C weather with no problem.

Glowing review: "I’ve been looking for the perfect winter coat for years. The colors are stunning! The coat is long, warm, but surprisingly light. I feel comfortable wearing just a T-shirt in the windy, sub-zero temperatures of Chicago. It works great in 30–40 degree weather too. I’ve worn it in the rain, and it kept me completely dry. The hood is perfect—not too heavy, yet it fully covers my head. The only improvement I’d suggest is moving the adjustable waist ties to the inside of the coat instead of the pockets. But after years of testing different coats, nothing is perfect—this one is 99% there. I absolutely love it and look forward to wearing it year after year." —Rachael
Available from The North Face for $350 (sizes XS–3X, seven colors).
