ORIGINS

The puffer gilet, also known as a down vest, has its origins rooted in the need for functional outerwear designed to protect against the harshest conditions. Originally created for mountaineers and explorers tackling rugged, freezing terrains, the puffer vest was developed to offer core warmth without restricting arm movement, making it ideal for high-energy activities. In the mid-20th century, adventurers in the alpine regions sought lightweight yet warm insulation, leading to the rise of down-filled jackets and gilets. Over time, these garments became more than just a mountaineer’s staple; they transformed into an everyday essential, evolving from purely functional outdoor gear into a versatile piece of fashion. Today, the puffer gilet continues to embody the pioneering spirit of explorers while offering the perfect blend of practicality and style for both urban and outdoor adventures.
