The Puffer Gilet That’s Suddenly in Every Outfit

Some pieces you know you’ll wear. Others surprise you. One try, and they instantly become part of your daily rotation. That’s exactly what happened with the Montana Puffer Gilet.

This winter, it’s become one of the most-worn items amongst the design team’s wardrobe. Whether it’s for coffee runs, heading into the office, or layering up for a dinner date, this gilet keeps finding its way into every kind of outfit.

Functionally, it delivers on warmth thanks to advanced THERMOLITE® synthetic insulation. Lightweight, breathable and never bulky. Its structured, non-restrictive shape makes it the perfect middle ground: more considered than a hoodie, but easier than a full jacket.

It also thrives in those in-between moments, like early morning warmups or post-session cooldowns. It’s the kind of versatile layer you’ll keep reaching for, whether your day starts with movement or ends at your favourite neighbourhood spot.

How to Style It

Everyone has their own way of wearing it. Here is our take on our take on how we would style it and wear it out.

Jade: “Start with your best pair of jeans (I’d go for a barrel fit), throw on your fave hoodie, or in my case, a classic crew-neck striped sweater and layer the black Montana Puffer Gilet on top. Add your go-to sneakers and a cap to lock in that street style vibe. Cozy, polished, and effortless- like you’ve made an effort without even trying”.

Micaela: “As the winter season swings into gear, layering with intention is my main priority. For a streamlined pre- or post-workout fit, I would usually wear it over my Tempo 1/4 Zip, and pair it with the Essential Arise Leggings and Essential Strong Bra. It’s my go to the combo that works for a recovery walk, a gym session, Pilates, a run or just heading to your favourite coffee spot”.

Why It Works

Aesthetically, it nails the balance between styled and low-key. It’s not loud, but it always adds something. Whether thrown over a hoodie, worn with tailored trousers, or styled with leggings and a crop, this gilet brings that polished, “cool without trying” energy that makes any outfit feel complete.
