GTBuy Jackets Spreadsheet
The GTBuy Jackets Spreadsheet covers outerwear, bombers, puffers, windbreakers, and heavier coats. Jackets are the highest investment category on average, so making the right choice matters more here. This page explains fill weight, shell materials, and how to judge stitching on layers you will wear for months.
What to Buy in Jackets
- Puffer jackets and down layers
- Bombers and flight jackets
- Windbreakers and track jackets
- Heavy coats and parkas
How to Judge Quality
- Fill power should be 500 or higher for warmth
- Shell material should feel crisp and not paper-thin
- Zippers should glide smoothly and match the brand
- Seam taping should be even and free of gaps
Common Mistakes
- Buying a puffer without checking fill weight: it will not keep you warm
- Ignoring the lining: a cheap lining ruins the feel of a good jacket
- Skipping the hood check: detachable hoods often have weak attachment points
- Ordering the wrong season: winter jackets are bulky and may not fit your usual layering
Sizing & Fit Tips
Jackets require room for layering. Measure your chest while wearing a hoodie or sweater, then add 1-2 inches for movement. If you want a tight puffer look, size down but verify the fill power will still keep you warm.
