New York winters are cold. No matter how many you have lived through, the wintertime is always able to take you by surprise. Sure, there are plenty of winter coats out there to help you combat the cold, but a puffer coat will always reign supreme. I spent my childhood and teens in various versions of puffers from brands like Baby Phat and North Face. Luckily, in my adult years, Aritzia introduced the Super Puff, and my wardrobe has never been warmer. It’s available in a variety of colors and lengths, so you don’t have to sacrifice comfort (and warmth) for style. Plus, it’s on sale for Black Friday.
So while we are stocking up on all our discounted winter-wardrobe essentials from Gap and Reformation, let me tell you why this is the one thing you need from the Canadian retail company.

Is it worth the price?
Okay, hear me out. Ten percent off usually isn’t something to write home about. However, the Super Puff rarely goes on sale. So if you’ve been on the fence about it or if you already have a cartful of Aritzia pieces to buy, 10 percent is still something. I’ve worn my standard Super Puff for the last four years. It is my go-to outerwear when the temperatures dip below freezing in New York. I’ve even washed it, and it still holds up, so the cost per wear is worth it. Plus, since launching, Aritzia’s expanded the number of colorways and materials — so there’s a coat for everyone, even your dog.
If I did need a new puffer, I’d opt for a longer option for extra warmth.
How does the Super Puff compare to other coats?
To put it plainly: It’s warm, it comes equipped with a hood, and it’s adjustable in all the right ways. Made of nylon and elastane, the down-filled coat can sustain cold up to -22°F. Sure, you don’t have to worry about weather that cold in New York City, but it’s helped me through some very cold mornings in the last four years.

More Aritzia Black Friday Deals
While you’re filling up your cart, here are a few other pieces to consider. I swear by Aritzia’s butter-soft workout line and flared leggings, and I’ve lived in the cashmere pants since getting them earlier this month. Plus, when I’m not wearing my go-to layering piece from Tank Air, I’m wearing Aritzia’s flattering contour tank. Senior shopping editor Bianca Nieves is also a Super Puff devotee, but recently she hasn’t stopped raving about her cashmere hoodie.
