$39 Amazon Puffy Jacket

Let's look at the $39 Puffy Jacket from Amazon. In the video I mistakenly call it by Amazon Basics, it's actually the Amazon Essentials Lightweight Water-resistant Packable Puffer Jacket.

I got the hooded version of the Amazon jacket and was surprised by how warm it was out in 10 to 20 degree F weather. The wind resistance was a real surprise based on how light weight it is.

[@KurtZitzelman]

Agreed, I'm still impressed with this jacket after 3 years. Unless it's really cold - 0-10 F or extremely windy this has been my go to for hiking and day use.

Works at at about £30, which is a good price for a warm jacket. Must admit I have always wanted a real lightweight, fully waterproof Down jacket but the prices are insane. For the price, I think you got a bargain, cheers Alan

[@KurtZitzelman]

I think the price/weight/packabilty ration on this one is pretty good.

[@KrizAkoni]

Love these inexpensive self packing jackets. I melted the sleeve on mine on my stove....lol.

[@KurtZitzelman]

I'm curious how this does near a fire lol

[@davidson_oldbull_sectionhiker]

I love any kind of gear reviews. Thanks

[@KurtZitzelman]

I always get too excited to use the gear and forget to review it!

Kurt Zitzelman Outdoors I did an unboxing video on KZbin for my Coyote Pack. Slept out twice it was comfortable but there is a learning curve.

[@KurtZitzelman]

Watching it right now.

Nice, I do need a new jacket. I might pick that one up. Thanks for sharing brother. When I saw the title of the video the first thing I thought of was the Puffy Pirate Shirt episode from Seinfeld lol.

[@KurtZitzelman]

They have a "try before you buy" option, not sure how it works, but worth looking in to. Not that kind of puffy lol

[@DragonRoams]

Not a bad find it should work just fine for you. My cheap $50 one is still going good after 3 years.

[@KurtZitzelman]

I was a little concerned, the down version had all kinds of reviews stating some baffles had no down lol I wasn't sure what to expect.

[@MidTnOutdoors]

Sometimes you can find a gem from Amazon. Fall is coming my friend.

[@KurtZitzelman]

It's definitely nicer than I was expecting... time will tell though

[@BURNWOODBUSHCRAFT]

Looks like a good deal!

[@KurtZitzelman]

So far, so good.

[@AOKUrbanHomestead1]

Nice jacket. I love mine

[@KurtZitzelman]

AOK!!! I'm pretty impressed with mine so far

[@josiah7499]

I’m getting one soon

[@KurtZitzelman]

They're not bad for the price, even down in to the 20'sF

[@BrosephRussell]

Sweet deal brother

[@KurtZitzelman]

Yeah, not too shabby!

[@Ahren_blk]

Hey I was wondering what size did you purchase? does the jacket run big?

[@KurtZitzelman]

I ordered a large. I'm 5'10 and it fits near perfectly.

[@hudekhoustonartist]

What size is your jacket?

[@KurtZitzelman]

This jacket is a large.
