Women's puffer jackets on clearance

Long, short or cropped: three down jacket silhouettes

The length affects both warmth and style. The long down jacket, like the Superdry Everest long or the QS with zip pockets, covers the thighs and protects against the wind in the coldest weather. The short version, which sits at mid-hip, is the most practical for everyday use, whether in a car or on a bike. The cropped jacket, even shorter, ends at the waist: the Guess New Fatema adds a belt that defines the silhouette. For a petite figure, a short cut lengthens the legs, while a taller figure suits a long straight cut.

Superdry, from Cheltenham to the cold

Superdry, founded in 2003 in Cheltenham, England, combines vintage American style with Japanese-inspired graphics. Its range of down jackets goes from the Fuji Lite, thin and lightweight for mid-season, to the Everest, padded and hooded, designed for winter. The Fuji, its most well-known model, comes with a hood and in several colours. The City, Spirit Sports, Premium Ripstop with tear-resistant fabric, and Estate Country with a country style complete an offer where everyone finds their level of warmth.

Guess and JOTT: glamour and lightness

Guess, founded in 1981 in Los Angeles by the Marciano brothers, makes boldly styled down jackets: the Guess 4G features the brand's monogram, while the New Oxana and Vona complete the line with more understated cuts. JOTT, founded in Marseille in 2010, has specialised in thin and compressible down jackets: the Cha and Cloe, lightweight, slip into a bag for uncertain days, while the Seda, sleeveless, layers easily. Two visions of women's down jackets, one dressed up, the other nomadic, which serve very different purposes.

Without sleeves and oversized: playing with volumes

The sleeveless down jacket keeps the torso warm while leaving the arms free: it can be worn on its own during beautiful autumn days or as an intermediate layer in winter. The JOTT Seda is a good example, thin and easy to layer. In contrast, the oversized down jacket Selfhood focuses on volume and a loose fit, which can also be worn open. The models Only Louise with a hood, Fransa, and QS round out the offering with more classic cuts. The checked print on a Superdry Premium finally adds an original touch to a piece that is most often plain.

Frequently asked questions

How do I choose the size of a women's down jacket?

Take your usual size and try it on closed over a thick knit: your arms should lift without restriction. If it's too tight, it compresses the filling and loses some warmth.

How to wash a JOTT down jacket?

Follow the label, usually a delicate wash at thirty degrees with a gentle detergent, with zips closed. Tumble drying at low temperature with tennis balls restores the loft of the filling.

How to prevent a down jacket from losing its feathers?

Wash it rarely, with a detergent suitable for down, and avoid compressing it for long periods. If a feather pokes out, push it back in by pulling it from the other side of the fabric, without pulling it out, to avoid widening the hole.

Can a down jacket be worn in the rain?

A light shower is not a problem if the fabric is water-resistant. In heavy rain, wet down loses its loft and warmth: synthetic filling performs better in such conditions.

How to remove a stain from a light down jacket?

Treat the stain promptly with a bit of Marseille soap and a damp sponge, without scrubbing hard. For a collar or wrists that have turned grey, a full wash on a delicate cycle gives a more uniform result.
