The adventurer invented an outer jacket encased with feathers, originally sold as the “Skyliner”

Fit:  

When considering the fit, sleeve length is the most important aspect. Your puffer jacket must have the correct sleeve length which goes up to the wrists. Oversized puffers are trendy but silhouette-friendly fit looks good on most guys.
