Product Information
Full details
The Korda Kore Thermolite Puffer Jacket is an essential outer layer for outdoor enthusiasts and anglers who require reliable thermal protection without excess bulk. Built with advanced hollow fibre technology, this jacket offers superior heat retention and weather resistance, making it ideal for unpredictable environments. While it excels at keeping you warm and dry, users should note that its specialized insulation is designed for active movement, so proper layering is recommended in sub-zero conditions.

FAQs
Is the jacket fully waterproof?
It features a 3K hydrostatic head rating and a DWR coating, making it highly water-resistant, but it is not classified as fully submersible or waterproof in prolonged heavy downpours.
Does the hood adjust for size?
The hood is designed to be a snug, close-fitting style to offer maximum wind protection around the face and head.
Can I machine wash this jacket?
Yes, but use a gentle, cool cycle with a technical wash meant for performance fabrics to preserve the insulation and water-repellent coating.
Is this suitable for winter fishing?
Yes, the THERMOLITE insulation is specifically designed to keep the wearer warm in cold, damp outdoor conditions often associated with fishing.
How should I store the jacket when not in use?
Store the jacket on a wide hanger in a cool, dry place to maintain the shape and loft of the insulation.
What is the purpose of the longer back?
The extended back prevents the jacket from riding up when you are sitting down, which helps seal out draughts and keeps your lower back warm.
Troubleshooting
Water begins to soak into the outer fabric instead of beading off.
The DWR coating may have worn off. Apply a wash-in or spray-on re-waterproofing treatment for technical outerwear.
The main zip feels stiff or catches.
Clean any grit or debris from the teeth using a soft brush. If it remains stiff, apply a light coat of pure silicone lubricant or graphite.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Lightweight construction reduces fatigue during active use
- Highly water-resistant and windproof performance
- Maintains insulating properties even if the jacket gets damp
- Includes fleece-lined pockets for added comfort
- Extended back length provides extra protection against wind
Cons
- Not suitable for extreme Arctic-level cold without additional mid-layers
- Design is tailored for outdoor activity and may feel restricted if sized incorrectly
- Hand-wash or delicate cycle care required to maintain DWR coating
Setup, Compatibility & Care
This jacket is designed for a standard fit suitable for adults. For optimal performance, pair it with a moisture-wicking base layer to prevent sweat buildup. Regarding care, always check the internal label for specific washing instructions. It is recommended to use a mild, non-biological detergent and avoid fabric softeners, as these can strip the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating from the fabric. To maintain the jacket's loft, tumble dry on a low heat setting with a couple of clean tennis balls to help fluff the hollow fibre insulation.
