It was thin but very warm and I didn't have to do much aside from wipe down the cuffs. Mine didn't have a hood though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-puffer-coat#post-1578280 Fri, 30 Oct 2015 01:50:14 +0000 Destri 1578280@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I bought the white-ish Calvin Klein coat that was one of Angie's top picks a month or two ago. I came home yesterday and found that I had gotten something red on it near the pocket (I think it was a smudge of ink from a red pen) . . . I dampened a Magic eraser sponge and gently wiped it. Came right off! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-puffer-coat#post-1578216 Thu, 29 Oct 2015 23:54:59 +0000 Sarah 1578216@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well I guess I am with murpheleven seems I am going to go for it. Time to start shopping. I have a few in mind north face nuptse or something with a fur hood a little more casual. Any recomendations ? As far as cleaning with my hectic schedule I guess every mark will have a story. Lol. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-puffer-coat#post-1577951 Thu, 29 Oct 2015 12:51:54 +0000 Glory 1577951@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I consider one every year but haven't done it because of stains and dirt. I just purchased a black parka LOL. I do love a white parka/puffer and maybe when I don't spend so much time in hockey arenas I will reconsider. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-puffer-coat#post-1577945 Thu, 29 Oct 2015 12:29:34 +0000 Murph11 1577945@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How timely, Sarah! I've been looking for a white or light gray/silver puffer myself. My dark chocolate Eddie Bauer still looks like new after several years, but I need a change. All the reviews here have sealed-the-deal for me. Off to shop! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-puffer-coat#post-1577939 Thu, 29 Oct 2015 12:13:56 +0000 Windchime 1577939@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've not owned one--yet-- but wanted to say how striking they are. I always look twice when I see someone wearing a white coat in winter; it's a gorgeous look. If you think you can keep it white, go for it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-puffer-coat#post-1577912 Thu, 29 Oct 2015 10:55:05 +0000 kkards 1577912@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>for 10 years i had a light silver puffer, which i replaced last year with a cream one….as Gail mentioned, the cuffs tend to get dirty, but overall i actually find lighter coats don't get any dirtier, or show dirt in winter more than dark ones…ever see a black coat after you've cleaned off the car and gotten salt/car dirt all over it? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-puffer-coat#post-1577909 Thu, 29 Oct 2015 10:25:03 +0000 JamC 1577909@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've had a long cream puffer for years. It has done well with a few washes each season. I really like the change a light coat brings; there are so many black puffers around! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-puffer-coat#post-1577830 Thu, 29 Oct 2015 01:48:35 +0000 Anonymous 1577830@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I bought a silvery white puffer last year and it stayed amazingly clean, even with travel, slush and snow. A damp cloth removes dirt easily. Mine has a slick shiny surface. Indeed to make a Find for it, but it is Laundry by Shelli Segal from last year's NAS. The interior is deep grey. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-puffer-coat#post-1577818 Thu, 29 Oct 2015 01:26:59 +0000 Colette 1577818@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you can spot clean in between washes. I have a white gear jacket for spring/summer and that's what I do. I also pretreat stains and soak in Oxy. Comes out like new. Definitely more washing than a darker color but if you are up for that, you should go for it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-puffer-coat#post-1577804 Thu, 29 Oct 2015 01:05:49 +0000 Aida 1577804@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Same as Lisa, I just washed mine once a month. It was not being worn every day of the week, but I do wear it all weekend all winter. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-puffer-coat#post-1577791 Thu, 29 Oct 2015 00:47:01 +0000 Anonymous 1577791@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a slightly off-white thermoball from Eddie Bauer that is now 3 years old and still looks as good as the day I bought it. I toss it in the machine every few weeks - depends on how often it gets worn. I've had nothing stain it permanently, and I'm known to spill coffee and drip things on myself in the car all the time </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-puffer-coat#post-1577788 Thu, 29 Oct 2015 00:38:03 +0000 K. Period. 1577788@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a Land's End one that I've had for several years. I don't wear it often because I'm afraid of staining (two little kids). So far, so good though. &nbsp;I do clean it more often than my other coats. &nbsp;Do you have any white jeans? Do you wash them more often than your other denim? I find my mileage translates pretty well across those categories. &nbsp;I get a couple of wears out of white jeans before I need to wash them, whereas I might wear medium or dark jeans five or six times before they need a wash. &nbsp;(Needing and getting being two different things. In practice I probably wash much more frequently.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-puffer-coat#post-1577785 Thu, 29 Oct 2015 00:31:47 +0000 Jules 1577785@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I had a white anorak and did not enjoy the need for frequent washing. I live in Canada so typically a puffer gets worn hard, almost daily, for 2-3 months and I don't want to plan around washing it. I am pretty messy (RATE) in general and don't really enjoy high maintenance clothing (hate ironing, dry cleaning, etc and have learned to buy accordingly), so, YMMV. <br />I think there's a certain amount of going with your gut - does white feel like it work for your lifestyle? It works for me better in the summer because I expect to wash those clothes with every wear due to sweat and city grime. But it turns out I dirty quickly and have no interest in frequently washing fall/winter outerwear. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-puffer-coat#post-1577783 Thu, 29 Oct 2015 00:29:51 +0000 Sarah 1577783@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ok so we have mixed reviews. Lol So it would need washed once a month or make it most of the winter ? I'm sure it will get makup on the collar and dirty sleeves. But will grease stains or coffee wash out if I leave it for a while ? Maybe wipe it with a Clorox wipe between washes ? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-puffer-coat#post-1577779 Thu, 29 Oct 2015 00:18:51 +0000 rachylou 1577779@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have never had a white puffer come clean... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-puffer-coat#post-1577746 Wed, 28 Oct 2015 21:51:54 +0000 Meredith 1577746@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I had one, but the it had a lining the rubbed off and discolor end the cuffs. That probably was an issue specific to that coat, but it was frustrating enough to put me off of white puffers in the future. Although I do have a white trench coat that manages to stay clean... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-puffer-coat#post-1577717 Wed, 28 Oct 2015 20:08:45 +0000 Aida 1577717@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a short cream puffer, and have taken it out in proper dirty places (camping, farms, dirt bike riding etc). Everything comes out fine in the wash. The cuffs and collar tend to dirty up the quickest. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-puffer-coat#post-1577699 Wed, 28 Oct 2015 19:29:53 +0000 Gail 1577699@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I had a cream one and it wasn't too hard. However I found that my pocket book strap tended to leave dirty marks on the shoulder. Also the cuffs got dirty but it all came out when I washed it. I did pre-treat and scrub prior to putting in the washing machine. I just bought a new North Face one in light silver &nbsp;so I am not afraid of the light color ;)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-puffer-coat#post-1577682 Wed, 28 Oct 2015 19:06:06 +0000 Sarah 1577682@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Was thinking of getting a white puffer this winter. Anyone that's had one how hard are they to keep clean ? Will most dirt and stains come off in the wash ? Any advice greatly appreciated. Thanks sarah. </p>
