Our take on the Columbia Puffect III Cropped Puffer Jacket

A cropped, quilted puffer from Columbia's Puffect line, built for women who want warmth without bulk. It pairs a high collar and full zip with a fleece lining and synthetic and down-feather fill, so it layers easily over sweaters. The short straight cut sits at the waist, which makes it less protective in wind than a hip-length puffer but easier to move in. Rivals in this class offer similar warmth; this one stands out for its fleece lining and cropped silhouette.

Questions and answers

Is the Puffect III Cropped warm enough for winter?: It handles cool to cold days well, especially layered over a sweater. The cropped length leaves the waist and lower back less covered, so it is not the best pick for deep cold or strong wind.
How does it fit?: It is cut short and straight, sitting around the waist. Most shoppers take their usual size; size up if you plan to layer thick knits underneath.
What is it filled with?: The fill combines down and feathers with synthetic insulation, and the lining is fleece. That mix gives warmth with a softer feel inside than a plain nylon lining.
Is it waterproof?: No. The polyester shell resists light moisture but is not a waterproof membrane, so it is not a rain jacket.
How should I wash it?: Use a gentle cycle with a down-safe detergent, then tumble low with dryer balls to keep the fill lofted. Avoid fabric softener and high heat.
How does it compare with a longer Puffect jacket?: The longer Puffect models cover the hips and offer more wind protection. This cropped version trades that coverage for a lighter, more mobile fit.
Where is the Columbia Puffect III Cropped Puffer Jacket cheapest?: At Academy Sports, for $120.00, as of our latest check.
Where can I buy the Columbia Puffect III Cropped Puffer Jacket?: 2 stores we checked sell it, including Academy Sports, Zappos.
