What top to wear with a down jacket?
The top controls volume perception. We play between fitted, regular, and technical mid-layers.
1) T-shirts & turtlenecks
- heavy tee: clean base under lightweight or short puffer.
- turtleneck: city silhouette, perfect under mid-length puffer.
2) Sweatshirts & hoodies
- hoodie under short puffer: iconic street combo.
- crewneck sweatshirt: minimal neatness, works with raw denim/cargo.
3) Fleeces & mid-layers
- thin fleece: warmth without bulk, great under classic puffer.
- technical vest: breathable zip, precise fit.
4) Balance rules
- Oversize puffer → clean top (tee/turtleneck).
- Fitted puffer → mid-weight top (sweat/thin fleece).
FAQ
1) Blazer under puffer?
Possible with ultralight puffer and soft blazer, well-fitted sizes.
2) Hood + hood, too much?
Avoid double hood. If hoodie, choose puffer without hood or with thin hood.
