Product Information
Full details
The Columbia Puffect III Mid Puffer Jacket is an ideal choice for adults seeking a balance of style and function for city commutes or casual weekend excursions. Its primary benefit is the combination of water-repellent Omni-Shield technology and lightweight Thermarator insulation, providing substantial warmth without adding excessive bulk. While it offers excellent protection against sharp, cold air, potential buyers should note that it is a mid-length jacket, which may not provide full-body coverage for extreme deep-winter conditions.

FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
It is water-repellent thanks to Omni-Shield technology, meaning it handles light rain and snow well, but it is not intended for heavy, sustained downpours.
Can I machine wash this jacket?
Yes, it can be machine washed on a cold, gentle cycle. Always check the internal care label for specific instructions.
What kind of insulation does it use?
It uses Thermarator insulation, a high-performance synthetic material designed to provide the warmth of down while remaining lightweight.
Is the jacket bulky?
No, it is specifically engineered to provide warmth without the heavy bulk associated with traditional puffer jackets.
How should I clean the zipper area?
Wipe the zipper with a damp cloth to remove any debris or grit that might cause sticking.
Troubleshooting
Outer fabric appears to absorb water
The DWR finish may have worn off. Wash the jacket to remove dirt/oils and re-apply a DWR spray treatment to restore water repellency.
Insulation feels compressed
Tumble dry the jacket on low heat with a few clean tennis balls to agitate and restore the volume of the Thermarator fibers.

- Extended length offers additional warmth

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This jacket is ready to wear immediately upon purchase. For long-term care, machine wash the garment in cold water on a gentle cycle using a mild detergent. To maintain the loft of the Thermarator insulation, tumble dry on a low heat setting with clean tennis balls if necessary to help re-fluff the fill. Avoid using fabric softeners or bleach, as these can compromise the Omni-Shield water-repellent finish. The jacket is designed to be worn as an outer layer; if layering underneath, consider sizing up to ensure comfortable movement in the shoulder area.
