A puffer vest is a lightweight yet incredibly warm outerwear piece characterized by its quilted design and down or synthetic filling. The "puffer" name comes from the vest's ability to "puff up," providing excellent insulation against the cold. These vests typically have a cropped or waist-length fit, with pockets and sometimes a hood for added functionality and style.
As a sleeveless outerwear option, a puffer vest will keep your core warm without restricting arm movement. You can layer it over various tops, like a long-sleeve tee, turtleneck, or crewneck sweater.
