Is this coat warm enough for winter?

It is a padded puffer, so it holds warmth well for cold days, but the cropped length leaves the hips and lower back less covered than a long coat. It works best layered over a sweater in moderate cold.

It is a size M with a close, cropped cut. The chest measures about 19 inches flat and the body about 24 inches from collar to hem, so expect a fitted layer rather than a roomy one.

Can I wear it over a bulky hoodie?

A thin knit or light hoodie fits comfortably. A thick fleece or heavy sweater may feel tight through the chest and shoulders given the close cut.

Is it good for rain or snow?

It is a fashion puffer, not a waterproof shell. It handles dry cold well, but prolonged rain or wet snow will soak through the outer fabric.

How does it compare with a long puffer?

A long puffer covers more of the body and blocks wind lower down. This one is lighter and more styled, better for city wear where you want warmth without bulk.
