How should a puffer insulated jacket fit?

A puffer winter jacket should have enough room in the shoulders that you can comfortably give yourself a hug. However, bigger is not always better with an insulated jacket. If the jacket is too big it will create a space between it and your body, which will allow the cold air in and prevent the insulation from trapping your body heat. The jacket should hug your back, come down just below your waist, and the sleeves should be just past your wrists when your arms are raised.

What is the best material for a windbreaker

Most windbreakers are made out of a single layer of nylon or polyester. These materials are great for preventing drafts and conforming to the body as gusts of wind fly by. They are also good for light rains, but a waterproof rain jacket should be used in heavy rains as nylon and polyester will eventually soak through.

Is a sherpa-lined jacket good for keeping you warm?

Sherpa is one of the most common materials used as an insulator in winter jackets or coats because it is a lightweight, yet very warm material. It is often found in heavy work jackets, but is also used in lighter coats and sweatshirts because of its warmth and softness.
