The best puffer jackets ultimately make good on a single promise: shielding you and your meticulously crafted outfit from the ravages of winter. They're warm, they're waterproof, and, lately, they're more stylish than ever. Thank designer fashion for the recent puffer jacket renaissance. Gucci has tapped The North Face, twice, for puffer jackets fusing practical design with retro color blocking and a sprinkle of logomania. Then, there was the puffer appreciation moment at New York Fashion Week this season, when Tommy Hilfiger sent models down an outdoor runway in maxi puffer jackets during a torrential downpour—and the audience, soaked on bleachers surrounding the catwalk, realized they'd never take a warm coat for granted again. And who can forget Pierpaolo Piccioli transforming mere puffer coats into dramatic puffer gowns for Moncler Genius? They may not have been practical, but they reminded us even the bulkiest winter outerwear can still be elegant. It's all in the attitude. Runway credentials aren't a requirement for staying warm and cool at once when you're choosing an everyday coat. Puffer jackets from Aritzia's Super Puff to Alo Yoga's Gold Rush Puffer can protect you and your winter office outfits from the elements (and look good doing it). Whether your puffer personality is après-ski stripes or sleeping bag wrap coats, the following 24 puffer jackets will make you want to bundle up this winter.
