In a sale that seems to be about tailored coats and jackets, I ordered two new puffers! A green TNF Metro puffer, and a navy Patagonia water resistant down puffer jacket. I love the happy color of the TNF! They also had a plum, but it’s not a great color for me. There is a really nice dark green Bernardo that I looked at for a very long time but I don’t think it will be warm enough for my climate. It”s poly fill, not down, so I passed it over. It’s very nice if anyone is interested. It would have been my first pick because the color is so elegant.
If they work out I will have a complete collection of warm puffers. One sleeping bag, one stadium length, and one sporty and short. I also have light weight down sweater type puffers which are still going strong that I purchased either last year, or two years ago for my fall walks.
(I had to retire two puffers of these lengths when I did my closet edit. Both had become so pulled and frayed one my left side kind of in the back over my shoulder. I think it was damage from my seat belt because I carry my bags on the right.)
I did not look at the wool jackets online because I had purchased a Fleurette pea coat and Long dressy coat made of sumptuously soft Loro Piano wool last Spring when they were on sale. I’m waiting for winter accessories now! Scarves, hats and gloves to go with all these new coats!
