This cotton-padded puffer vest features a loose, relaxed fit designed specifically for comfortable layering.

Important Sizing Note: This item uses Asian sizing, which runs 1-2 sizes smaller than standard US sizing. We strongly recommend sizing up at least one size from your usual size for proper layering fit. If you plan to wear this over thick sweaters or prefer extra room, consider sizing up two sizes.

Fit Tips:
- Measure for layering: Take your bust measurement while wearing the thickest layer you plan to wear underneath (like a sweater). Compare this to the bust measurement in the chart, adding 2-4 inches for comfortable layering room.
- Length considerations: The back length measures from the highest point of the shoulder to the hem. On most body types, this vest hits around hip level, providing good coverage while remaining easy to move in.
- Shoulder fit: Due to the loose design, shoulder seams may sit slightly off your natural shoulder line—this is intentional for the relaxed, oversized aesthetic.
- Armhole comfort: Check the armhole measurement to ensure comfortable arm movement, especially if you plan to layer over bulky sweaters.
- Between sizes? Always size up due to Asian sizing. Remember, this vest is meant to be a layering piece, so extra room is beneficial.
- Need assistance? Contact our customer service team with your measurements and intended layering pieces for personalized sizing guidance.
Features & Fabric
- Key Features: Sleeveless puffer vest design with sophisticated stand collar, secure front zipper closure for easy on/off, functional side zipper pockets to keep essentials secure, loose relaxed fit for comfortable layering, and solid color construction for versatile styling.
- Material Composition: Durable polyester (polyester fiber) shell provides wind resistance and easy care. Filled with plush silk-like cotton padding that offers warmth without excessive bulk or weight.
- Fabric Feel: The polyester exterior has a smooth, slightly matte finish with a subtle sheen typical of quality puffer vests. The fabric is lightweight yet durable, with a soft hand feel. The silk-like cotton filling creates a plush, cushioned feel that's warm without being heavy or restricting movement.
- Warmth & Thickness: Thick cotton padding throughout the body provides substantial warmth, making this vest ideal for temperatures ranging from cool fall days to cold winter weather. The padding is evenly distributed to prevent cold spots while maintaining a streamlined silhouette.
- Construction Details: The stand collar provides neck protection and adds a polished, put-together look. The zipper is sturdy and smooth-operating. Pockets feature zipper closures to keep your phone, keys, and cards secure. The sleeveless design ensures your arms remain free for unrestricted movement.
- Fit Philosophy: The loose, relaxed fit is intentional—this vest is designed as a layering piece that accommodates everything from fitted long-sleeve tees to chunky knit sweaters. The generous cut prevents the bunching and restriction that often occurs with too-tight outerwear.
- Color Options: Eight sophisticated colorways offer something for every style—classic neutrals like black, white, apricot, and brown for versatile everyday wear; earthy army green for outdoorsy vibes; and bold yellow, pink, and plum red for those who love a pop of color in their outerwear.
- Care Instructions: Spot clean when possible to maintain the padding's loft. For deeper cleaning, machine wash cold on gentle cycle with similar colors. Use mild detergent and avoid bleach. Tumble dry on low heat or air dry flat. Do not dry clean. Shake out and fluff after washing to restore the padding's fullness. Store hanging or loosely folded to maintain shape. Imported.

This effortless combination works beautifully for coffee runs, farmers markets, casual brunches, or running weekend errands in comfort and style.

The vest provides core warmth while allowing unrestricted arm movement for outdoor activities like hiking, camping, or fall foliage walks.

This creates maximum warmth with elevated style—perfect for chilly days when you want to feel cozy without sacrificing sophistication.

Styling Q&A
- Q: How long does shipping take?
- A: This item qualifies for standard delivery and typically arrives in 7-12 business days within the USA.
- Q: I'm usually a US size Medium. What size should I order?
- A: Since this vest uses Asian sizing which runs 1-2 sizes smaller than US sizes, we recommend ordering a Large or XL if you're typically a US Medium. The size you choose depends on how you plan to layer—if you want to wear this over chunky sweaters, definitely size up two sizes. Check the bust measurement in the chart while wearing your thickest layering piece.
- Q: Is this warm enough for winter, or just fall?
- A: The thick cotton padding provides substantial warmth suitable for winter weather when layered properly. It's perfect as a standalone outer layer in fall or mild winter, and works beautifully as a mid-layer under a coat in very cold temperatures. The vest provides excellent core warmth, which is often all you need for active winter days.
- Q: Can I wear this vest for professional work settings?
- A: Absolutely! The stand collar and clean lines give this vest a polished, professional appearance. Choose neutral colors like black, white, apricot, or brown for conservative workplaces. Layer over blouses, button-downs, or turtlenecks with dress pants or skirts. It's an excellent alternative to bulky blazers for commuting and provides warmth without overwhelming business casual attire.
- Q: How do I choose between the different colors?
- A: Consider your existing wardrobe and lifestyle. Black, white, apricot, and brown are the most versatile neutrals that coordinate with everything. Army green offers an outdoorsy, casual vibe. Yellow, pink, and plum red make bolder statements and can brighten dreary winter days—these work especially well if your wardrobe consists mainly of neutral basics that could use a pop of color.
- Q: Will this vest make me look bulky?
- A: The loose fit is designed to drape rather than cling, creating a streamlined silhouette despite the padding. The sleeveless design actually helps balance proportions by keeping your arms unencumbered. The stand collar adds vertical lines that elongate rather than widen. When styled with fitted bottoms, the vest creates a flattering balance of volume on top with definition below.
- Q: What's the best way to care for the padding so it stays fluffy?
- A: After washing, tumble dry on low with clean tennis balls or dryer balls—these help break up clumps and restore the padding's loft. You can also hang it to air dry and then give it a good shake and manual fluffing. Store it hanging rather than compressed to maintain the padding's volume. Avoid over-washing; spot clean when possible to extend the vest's life and maintain optimal puffiness.
