I purchased this jacket on the way home from a trip to Cincinnati at the Duluth Trading store that I had never been to before Northern Kentucky. The store was lovely, the selections were fantastic. I have worn this jacket multiple times, and receive comments and compliments from complete strangers that let me know that my jacket is adorable. I have since purchased the fleece in the same pattern, as well as a matching hat. The quality of the jacket and the beautiful colors are stunning. The photos do not do this jacket justice. I love that it has a hood, which keeps the wind off of my neck in cold temperatures.
Women's AKHG Puffin Hoodie Jacket
Our roots are in Alaska in AKHG, and if you ask any of the folks who live that far north why they stay, you’ll get stories of glorious-but-brutal wilderness, record salmon hauls out of icy waters and iffy encounters with moose. The next thing they’ll tell you: While nature doesn’t pull any punches, it needs to be conserved. It’s why our customer-favorite Puffin Jacket is made from 100% recycled materials and still packed with performance. With channel-quilted synthetic insulation that lofts and insulates even when it gets soaked, plus a featherweight, water-repellent, snag-resistant shell that holds its own against scrapes and scratches. Storm flap to block wind at the zipper, and Reach Gussets® that give you unparalleled freedom to move. Which is all to say that as reliable and heat-trapping as the Puffer is, it’s still a bit kinder to that great, unkind wild.

Size
I love this jacket. Only negative comment would be the sleeves are a tad bit long, but I would rather have them longer than too short.
Beautiful print- I've received many compliments. Not the warmest- best for 40-50 degree weather. But I bought the polar fleece print, too, and they go fabulous together and are great for 10-20 degrees.
Not bulky
I have a yellow/green puffin coat that I love so much I recently ordered another one. This time the green floral one. As soon as I opened the package my eyes started to water. There was an overpowering chemical smell. I hung the jacket outside for 48 hours and then washed it. It is better but there is still a slight smell so I intend to wash it again. I guess it is a testament to the coat that I am trying to "de-stink" it but I also didn't feel like I should have to pay a shipping return charge for a stinky jacket. I just wonder if anyone else has had this issue with the green floral jacket or if I just got a lemon.
