Lululemon Wunder Puff 550-Down-Fill Cropped Jacket *Textured Fleece review
This Lululemon Wunder Puff 550 - Down - Fill Cropped Jacket *Textured Fleece is so soft and fluffy. As soon as you put it on, you get all warm and might even start feeling sleepy, like being snuggled up by a warm teddy bear .
You can pull the collar up and it covers half your face, so no need for a scarf. And the fact that the hood can be taken off is really cool . But you know, it's not the kind of thing you can wear out when it's raining or snowing.
It's way more eye - catching and better - looking than the Wunder Puff five - panel in Bone White. It's got a similar cut to the Wunder Puff four - panel down jacket, with inside pockets, those tight cuffs on the inside, a drawstring at the bottom, and a hood that you can remove. Inside, it's filled with 75% white goose down and 25% white goose feathers, and it's got a fill power of 550. The price in Canadian dollars is the same as the five - panel down jacket.
The down jacket is light, but this fleece version is pretty heavy. In terms of how much they seem to take up visually, the four - panel fleece one is about the same as the five - panel down jacket. I tried it on when it was around 10 degrees Celsius outside, and I was sweating after just a little while. The only bad thing is, it's heavy.
Between the four - panel and five - panel, I always go for the four - panel.
When you put on the five - panel down jacket from Lululemon, it can make you look like your body is split 50 - 50. It's not because of the length. It's because the body part is all puffy, but the sleeves are tight, so it looks like your body and arms don't match. If the sleeves were a bit looser, it'd look better.
The way the five - panel down jacket is made, it's neither cute nor laid - back. It doesn't matter if you get a bigger or smaller size, it still has this problem. Unless you always wear skinny pants with high - heeled boots or always keep the jacket open, from the front it looks 50 - 50, and from the back it's even worse.
The four - panel, on the other hand, makes your body look better, like a model with a short top and long legs. And the fleece material makes it seem more friendly than the down jacket.
But there's a reason the Bone White color is so popular. You can't really see how nice it is in pictures. In real life, it's like a pale gray - yellow, with a lot of gray mixed into a milky white. It's kind of in - between warm and cool, but more gray. It's a lot darker than pure white, and it looks really amazing in bright, cold light.
Just a heads - up The same color from Lululemon can look different on different materials. Even though they're both Bone White, the four - panel Bone White fleece jacket is more like a creamy white, with less gray.
