Brighton Striped Hooded Puffer Coat
How to spot the original Brighton
Fine white pinstripes run straight down from shoulder to hem and continue unbroken across the horizontal quilted channels, so the coat looks long and neat rather than round.
A high stand collar zips right to the chin, and the deep padded hood sits around it, with a row of press studs along the edge of the hood across the shoulders.
A drawstring with toggles at the hem lets you wear it straight or pull it into a cocoon shape, and the colour-matched zip keeps the stripes uninterrupted down the front.
The stripes
A striped hooded puffer coat that lifts the mood
Fine white pinstripes run straight down from shoulder to hem, keeping a warm, roomy shape looking long rather than round.
The deep padded hood sits over a beanie, and underneath a stand collar zips to the chin.
It is the coat that stands out in a sea of black puffers on the platform.
The Brighton puffer brings stripes to winter outerwear, a bold, cheerful pattern that lifts the mood on grey days and makes simple outfits look fun and confident. Named after the colourful seaside city, it has that playful British energy that stands out on the school run, the high street and seaside walks. It is a coat that makes people smile.
The fit
Relaxed and hip length, S to L
The chest measures 118 cm on the S up to 126 cm on the L, and the length is 65 to 67 cm, covering the hips.
A drawstring hem with toggles lets you wear it straight or pull it into a cocoon shape.
There is room for a chunky knit underneath; take your usual size for a relaxed look.
The relaxed, hip-length cut leaves room for a chunky jumper underneath, and the padding keeps you warm on cold mornings and windy afternoons. The hood shields your head from wind and drizzle, and deep pockets keep your hands warm and hold your phone and keys securely. It moves easily when you walk, cycle or carry shopping, so it is comfortable all day long.

Questions and answers
How do I choose my size in this coat?
It comes in sizes S to L. The size guide on this page gives measurements of the coat itself, taken flat: chest, length, shoulder and sleeve. Measure a similar coat you own, laid flat, and compare it with the chart; free UK delivery and 30 days to return give you time to check the fit at home.
How do I wash this coat?
Spot clean small marks with a damp cloth. For a full clean, a gentle 30°C wash in a laundry bag or a dry cleaner — check the label inside. Hang on a wide hanger so the shoulders keep their shape; brush lightly after wear.
How warm is this puffer coat?
The quilted padding traps warm air around your body, and the hood keeps wind off your head and neck. It suits cold, dry days and frosty mornings; when the temperature drops close to freezing, wear a knit jumper underneath.
Is this puffer coat waterproof?
A padded coat is built for warmth rather than for heavy rain. The shell copes with a short shower and the hood helps, but steady rain can work through the stitch lines. On a wet, mild day, a hooded rain jacket over a knit is the better choice.
How do I make a puffer coat puffy again after washing?
Let it dry fully on a hanger, then shake it out and pat each quilted panel by hand to spread the filling evenly. Repeat a few times while it dries. Stored loosely on a hanger rather than squashed in a bag, a puffer keeps its loft.
