Amazon Essentials Mens Lightweight Water-Resistant Packable Hooded Puffer Jacket

I bought this hooded jacket for my upcoming April 2026 European cruise for multi-purpose use - rain and cold. This will make me leave my raincoat and puffer jacket home to lighten up my luggage. I am 5’10” at 180 lbs. I wear 44 on suits. It still has room for a vest or a sweater inside. For the price this is perfect for me. Quality is good and I like the brown color. Most of my jackets are either gray or black color so this is a good change. The pockets have zippers which I like. Read more

Perfect fit. Light and warm. At a great price. Read more

I bought a few similar jackets from different manufacturers and the plan was to keep the one that fit the best. This one came in second place, and I had to return it because another one fit me a little better. I ordered the small, and I am 5'6" tall and 150 lbs with short limbs and a wide frame. Nothing fits me well, so I usually have to settle for something that is close but not perfect. This jacket fit perfectly, but the sleeves and overall length were just a little bit longer than a competitor. I honestly would have kept this jacket if I had not tried the competitor's, because the extra length was negligible and comfortable. Generally speaking, this jacket style runs a little long in the sleeves for people like me with short arms. Then, if you buy a size extra-small (usually not available), it's too tight or too short in the overall length. This is a nice, well-constructed, lightweight jacket that feels warm. It's much lighter than a parka but it seems like it will work for cold and wet weather around 40-45 F. The hood also fits well without a hat and it seems like a very functional go-to jacket for cold rainy weather. The wrist elastic could be a little tighter in my opinion, but it's basically snug around the wrist. You can probably put a few stitches in the material and make it tighter with some clever sewing.

I really like this jacket. It’s lightweight, comfortable to wear, and works very well for mild or slightly cool weather. It provides just enough protection without feeling heavy or bulky, which makes it great for everyday use. The material feels nice and the weather-resistant feature is useful for light wind or a bit of drizzle. Overall, it’s a simple, practical jacket that does exactly what I expected. I’m happy with my purchase. Read more

01/24: "Chilly" Festival Friendly! Wanted something to keep me warm in 40-50 degree weather, but that I could also compress into a hydration back pack ! This was perfect! .... love the ability to easily roll it into the included compact bag; I just wear with the bag attached as it arrived... u don't feel it...and you'll never lose it....it looks good on... fits great.... & was warm enough - it really does retain body heat.... all that plus its lightweight w/no added bulk! Ive had no issue with the zipper...but remember its only like a 30-40 dollar jacket...so just be patient & careful with it is all and don't expect to wear it snug and not have an issue with the zipper eventually ... Will also be taking it snowboarding soon. Very happy with this affordable purchase. Great value. (Size M, Black) UPDATE: 02/24.... purchased a 2nd jacket in Size: L: .... worked perfect for me as a snowboarding mid layer! ... as a 1st timer to snow, this made it easy for me paired with just a balaclava hoodie, a set of thermals, a bib pant, snowboarding socks & gloves I was comfortably warm as it was snowing with temps in the 20s described as a part cloudy, part sunny day with 2inches of snowfall expected (after 11inches the day prior) .... . I didn't need my top layer jacket... I stayed warm ... I remained dry .... I ended up purchasing the Sz: L to allow for layering & for more movement. It worked perfectly ... highly recommend...Item travels EXCELLENT! .... easy to care for... will likely purchase other colors as needed.... so for me at: 5'7", 170 ... size M for daily casual wear, and size L for winter sports at a bargain price & nothing bulky to store as I live in a tropical climate. Stores away easily taking up no space until the next trip. Read more

For the price, this is a terrific puffer jacket. The first one I purchased in 2019 got lots of hard use, finally got a rip or two, insulation started coming out, so I opted for a new one. New one is just as good. Alone It’s not gonna keep you warm in really cold and windy weather, but has Plenty of warmth for the weight, so I use it with multiple layers as needed. I do wish it had a drawstring for the hood, and maybe better sleeve cuffs. But the zippers are great, which is hard to find in an inexpensive puffer. Stitching is also good. So the five stars is a reflection of the excellent value for the price. Read more

I’m 5 ft 10 and 175lbs and size L is perfect ! It’s super good quality for the price ! Nice lightweight feel and the color looks great. Also love the 2 pockets inside. Read more

When zipped, the zipper track was crooked. No amount of pulling up or down, twisting would straighten it. Made in China, poor quality control. Sent it back. Not much movement in the shoulder area, snug fit 6'2" 300 lbs. Looked good, putting hood on and off was excellent, $20 price was good.
