Puffer jackets are a polarizing sartorial choice. On the one hand, their down-filled construction offers impressive warmth, but on the other, the feather-filled baffles can make you look like the Michelin man. If you have your heart set on a down jacket but don't want it to appear outrageous, Dick’s is the place to look, where a surprisingly svelte Patagonia puffer that offers the performance of down without the traditional overstuffed shape is nearly half off.

The Patagonia Downdrift Jacket is on sale for $178, a 46% discount on its normal retail price of $329. This insulated layer showcases Patagonia’s commitment to sustainability: It utilizes recycled duck and goose down for reliable warmth, and it’s also Bluesign and Fair Trade certified. It also has a perfect five-star rating after dozens of votes at Dick's, where shoppers call it “outstanding” and “very warm and wind resistant.” It’s available in four colors, but the Grayling Brown has the widest size range—it’s available from small up to 2XL, but we're predicting they'll sell through quickly.

The Patagonia Downdrift Jacket is insulated with 600-fill-power duck and goose down that has been reclaimed from other down garments, which gives it excellent heat retention while lessening its environmental impact. The exterior of the jacket is made from recycled nylon that’s coated with a PFC-free DWR finish, so it’ll repel light precipitation and moisture—this helps preserve the heat-trapping properties of the down and keeps you dry, too. The jacket has a regular fit with plenty of coverage (it hits just below the waist), and a drawcord hem and storm flap over the front placket help you lock in warmth and keep out cold breezes. The Downdrift even comes with a removable insulated hood for extra protection from the elements, while dual exterior handwarmer pockets and an interior zippered pocket provide convenient spaces to stash your essentials.

Reviewers have lots of good things to say about the Downdrift—its flawless rating shouldn't come as a shock. One shopper said it “performed beautifully” in the cold, and they added, “The length is great and it is very comfortable.”
