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 we took a hard look at our customer-favorite Puffin Vest, and remade it from 100% recycled materials while keeping all the performance. Still packs channel-quilted synthetic insulation that lofts and insulates even when it gets soaked. With a featherweight, snag-resistant shell that holds its own against scrapes and scratches, and a storm flap to block wind at the zipper. Which is all to say it’s the same reliable heat-trapping Puffin as before, but now a bit kinder to that great, unkind wild.
