The puffs in #4 seem algo to me. Hoods never bother me in the car, and I've had 2 + hour commutes. Plus, then if it rains or snows during the day, you don't have to worry about a hat! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/puffer-shopping#post-2101687 Mon, 24 Feb 2020 13:46:53 +0000 RobinF 2101687@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also like the Eddie Bauers. My main winter puffer has a non-removable hood but I like it - you never know when you need to pull it up. But if it doesn't work for you then I would go with #4. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/puffer-shopping#post-2101676 Mon, 24 Feb 2020 13:25:37 +0000 Bijou 2101676@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#3 and 4 get my vote. I prefer the look of #3, but if you think the hood is an issue, then #4 is a good compromise. #1 is definitely too big. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/puffer-shopping#post-2101500 Sun, 23 Feb 2020 20:06:38 +0000 Elle 2101500@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like both Eddie Bauer options in the first group.&nbsp; But the non- removable hood sounds like a deal breaker </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/puffer-shopping#post-2101494 Sun, 23 Feb 2020 19:52:54 +0000 Angie 2101494@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like #3 best.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/puffer-shopping#post-2101363 Sun, 23 Feb 2020 01:32:16 +0000 smittie 2101363@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love 3.<br /> I don’t think a non-removable hood is a big deal. They smush up in the car. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/puffer-shopping#post-2101353 Sun, 23 Feb 2020 00:59:50 +0000 rachylou 2101353@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The last in the original post. Looks nice on you and long is so so helpful in the cold. </p> <p>Puffy puffy puffy!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/puffer-shopping#post-2101343 Sun, 23 Feb 2020 00:11:50 +0000 Anonymous 2101343@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You will love having a puffer coat. They are so light weight, yet wRm when they need to be. I like the last Eddie Bauer one and the one you added later that is not as warm. You know what would work best in your climate.<br /> I have a warm puffer and one more like the added one that is not as warm. I wear both equally as much. I have a puffer in a sort of off white and one in deep navy. The olive one is the lighter weight. I keep the hoods on as they do not bother me but camouflage my sway back. The olive one does not have a hood but a big collar. The faux fur is removable but I keep it on as I like the color with my grey hair and white boots. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/puffer-shopping#post-2101308 Sat, 22 Feb 2020 21:09:34 +0000 CarolS 2101308@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the two Eddie Bauer options. I might actually prefer the first one (with the hood that doesn't come off) because the hood is sleeker than the one with the fur trim, and I like that sleekness on you. I totally get a big hood being in the way in the car -- I have a parka I rarely wear because I have to tilt the seat so far back to accommodate the massive hood. But the non trimmed hood doesn't seem to me like it would get in the way. (although if it feels that way to you, I that's what matters!) It looks like you have some good contenders, anyway.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/puffer-shopping#post-2101305 Sat, 22 Feb 2020 20:58:36 +0000 L'Abeille 2101305@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I found another one I like. Not as super warm and poofy. There is a gathered waist at the back, to rein in the volume, but it's a bit higher than my natural waist. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/puffer-shopping#post-2101295 Sat, 22 Feb 2020 20:31:20 +0000 Cardiff girl 2101295@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the last two best as well.l think a full length puffer is worth the investment if you find one you like. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/puffer-shopping#post-2101290 Sat, 22 Feb 2020 20:23:15 +0000 L'Abeille 2101290@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Which one?</p> <p>I've been thinking of a puffer for a while. My long wool blend coat was looking threadbare. And now it's lost 2 of its 4 buttons so it's really time.</p> <p>I came to our (small) city today to try things on, since I hate on line shopping and I'm in Canada.</p> <p>Contenders:<br /> 1 Marks. Very comfy. It's a size larger than I usually take but only one they had. Is it too big?</p> <p>2 Fairweather (trendy store). Fits better but I don't like the buttons, and the zippers feel iffy.</p> <p>3 Eddie Bauer first try on. I love everything about this except that the hood doesn't remove, which is not practical for my car commuting life.</p> <p>4 Eddie Bauer again. I think this is it. Hood is removable. Can tighten the waist as desired. Pricier than some (but end of season sale) but this one should last. </p>
