In winter, the down jacket automatically turns into a universal thing that will be appropriate in any situation. Due to the variety of modern models, you can choose a multifunctional model, or several: for work, leisure and sports. Modern down jackets are comfortable and stylish, so they are perfectly combined with many wardrobe items, try it!

Benefits

Today, down-padded coats are more popular than fur coats and sheepskin coats, since they have much more advantages:

  • high-quality insulation retains heat even in the most severe frosts, thanks to a special porous structure;
  • the down jacket is almost weightless, it is easy to move around and convenient to transport, if necessary;
  • it is very comfortable, provides convenience and warmth in any situation;
  • modern models are very attractive in appearance.

disadvantages

  • over time, the filler starts to climb out of the product;
  • products with natural down can tingle the skin;
  • dense fabric does not pass air;
  • not suitable for people with allergies.

These problems are more likely to concern products of dubious quality that are sold on the market. If you purchase a down jacket from a well-known brand that monitors the quality of its products, you will hardly have to face such problems.

So that the natural filler does not tingle the skin, make sure that it contains at least 80% of fluff and only 20% of feathers. If you want your skin to breathe, choose a product from a membrane breathable fabric. In case you are allergic, choose for yourself a product with high-quality artificial filler, which is not inferior to the natural in its insulating properties.

Models

Designers are making every effort so that modern down jackets do not look like polar jackets. The most popular and popular models for today are:

Down coat coat. In such products, it is difficult to consider a down jacket, since outwardly they look more like elegant jackets and coats.

Materials

In a fashion unusual materials for us that look very elegant. This is tweed, cashmere, wool, fabric with a metallic sheen. But about the nylon should be forgotten, it is appropriate only on ski jackets.

Fur, in all its manifestations, also does not go out of fashion. For example, in the collections of Stella McCartney, which does not use natural materials to create clothes, you can find decent down jackets with artificial fur.

Fillers

If you want your down jacket to serve more than one season, choose a product with high-quality filling.

  1. Natural down. Very warm filler that retains heat well. The air that is between the filler fibers is heated by the heat of your body, creating a warm air layer. Sometimes he lumps in the lumps after washing, but it is not difficult to reanimate him by distributing the fluff back to the jacket.
  2. Natural feathers. The filler is not very high quality, which will be bad to warm, get out of the jacket and prick. It is absolutely not suitable for winter, it can be worn only in the spring and autumn period.
  3. Holofiber Very light and warm high quality filler. When washing does not lose its insulating properties, does not lump in lumps. Suitable for people with allergies.
  4. Sintepon. Popular budget material that is often found in winter jackets. However, it does not retain heat very well, therefore it is not suitable for severe frosts. But it is easily erased and dries pretty quickly.

Color solutions

If you prefer low-key and practical colors, buy a black down jacket, navy, gray, beige, khaki. They are not very popular, but they are absolutely universal.
Do not forget about fabrics with metallic luster, such as gold and silver. If such a fashionable decision seems to you very bold, buy a dark down jacket with a shiny finish that will look laconic and elegant.
Lovers of unusual colors like models with gradient staining. By the way, a smooth transition from light to dark, will suit girls with voluminous hips and narrow shoulders. Successful coloring helps to visually balance the silhouette.

In a fashion a variety of colors: camouflage, cell, strip, floral and animal print, surreal motifs and abstraction. Young girls should pay attention to models that combine at least two contrasting colors.

How to choose a stylish and high-quality model?

Choosing a down jacket, you need to focus on four main criteria:

  1. Type of filler;
  2. The quality of the product;
  3. The functionality of the selected model;
  4. Suitable style.

Perhaps, it is worth starting with the style - if the model does not suit you or does not like it, it does not make sense to look at the quality.

Holders of the figure "apple" fit a fitted model with diagonal stripes or inserts on the waist, which will create the effect of the figure "hourglass". Avoid short models with a belt and patch pockets.

Girls - "pears" fit down jackets with a belt at the waist and an unusual shape of the bottom. Asymmetric bottom visually distracts attention from the shortcomings. Avoid models with tightening elements at the hem, the bottom should be even or slightly flared.

Short down jackets will suit short girls with a boyish figure, maximum to mid-thigh. It will open slender legs, visually make them longer, and the silhouette is higher. Avoid models with long sleeves and voluminous shoulders, they will look ridiculous at you. It is better to pay attention to the shortened sleeves, which will emphasize your fragile wrists.

Owners of lush breasts fit model with a pronounced waistline and a wide belt. Avoid voluminous collars and lush fur trim that will add extra volume to the bust area.

If the down jacket suits you externally, check its quality and be sure to read the information about the "stuffing". With the popular types of filler you can see above, choose the one whose characteristics suit you best.

Pay attention to the quality of fittings, it must be of high quality. You will find a bag with a good manufacturer in the kit with spare buttons, buttons and other elements.

The seams on the jacket should be flat and strong, no threads sticking out. If the lining is also quilted, it is a guarantee that the filler will not get off and fall down in the process of wearing.

To protect yourself from the wind, buy a product with elastic bands on the cuffs, at the waist and with a protective fabric lining along the zipper.

As for the functionality of your chosen model, it’s good if the hood and fur trim comes out. Not superfluous is the presence of internal pockets and an additional removable linings.

If one of the above criteria does not suit you, feel free to refuse to buy! The goods of inadequate quality or unsuitable for you style is not worth the money spent.
