Questions and answers
- Which is warmer?
- The long down puffer is built as a heavyweight coat and should be warmer on its own. The Patagonia relies on a 700-fill liner plus a shell, which is warm but designed for layering.
- Which handles rain and snow better?
- The Patagonia. Its H2No shell is waterproof and windproof. The puffer's nylon and spandex shell is not stated as waterproof.
- Is the Patagonia worth the extra money?
- If you want one jacket for wet, changing weather across three seasons, yes. If you only need a warm coat for dry cold, the puffer covers that for less.
- Which lasts longer?
- The Patagonia's modular design and waterproof shell hold up across more conditions and seasons. The puffer's dry-clean-only down needs more careful upkeep.
- Which fits more body types?
- The Patagonia, which runs XXS to XXL. The puffer runs XS to XL.
- Can I machine wash either one?
- The puffer is listed as dry clean only despite a machine wash note elsewhere. Check the Patagonia care label before washing.
