Our 14 Favourite Sustainable Puffer Jackets for the Season

We love this pink packable puffer (say that ten times fast) from tentree’s new sustainable outerwear collection. It is made from 100% recycled materials and cruelty-free insulation, and can—as the name suggests—be easily packed into the attached pouch for on-the-go adventures.

Canadian brand tentree believes big change starts small. Small as in bringing your reusable bag to the grocery store, making fewer, more thoughtful purchases, and choosing to purchase sustainably when you do. The brand plants ten trees for every item purchased to help regenerate ecosystems and provide planting jobs in communities around the world, and has already planted over 65 million trees.

All tentree’s products are created with an Earth-First approach, meaning they’re made in fair, safe working conditions, and constructed using only sustainably sourced and recycled materials. tentree’s super comfy fabrics and easy wardrobe staples are typically available from XS to XL.
