Men's Hooded Padded Puffer Vest PIT BULL WEST COAST "PATTON" (Rip-Stop Fabric / Polyurethane Coating / Detachable Hood / Heavy Thermal Insulation)

The Pit Bull West Coast Patton men's hooded padded puffer vest is an engineered cold-weather outerwear piece designed for transitional seasons and brisk winter conditions. Engineered to lock in core heat around your chest, back, and kidneys while keeping your arms unrestricted, its ergonomic Regular Fit silhouette serves as an ideal layering piece over thick fleece hoodies, heavy crewnecks, and thermal base layers without feeling restrictive.

The shell features a dual-fabric construction. The upper body is crafted from high-strength Rip-Stop technical polyester, where an interwoven crosshatch grid stops surface tears and abrasions. The lower section is tailored from dense, high-gauge matte polyester for clean aesthetics and wear resistance. The entire shell is treated with a protective polyurethane (PU) coating, delivering windproof and water-repellent performance against blustery gusts, freezing rain, and wet snow. Horizontal baffles hold a heavy synthetic thermal insulation layer, finished on the inside with a smooth polyester lining that glides effortlessly over apparel.

The Patton vest features a fully detachable, insulated hood equipped with an elastic bungee drawcord and cord stoppers. When unzipped, the vest leaves an insulated stand-up collar to guard the neck from wind drafts. The waist hem is framed with a heavy rib-knit trim that hugs the waist to keep cold air from blowing in from below. Practical storage includes two zippered side hand pockets, a vertical zippered chest pocket, and an interior security pocket for phones, wallets, and keys. The design is finished with a signature PITBULL patch sewn onto the hood.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What advantage does combining Rip-Stop with a polyurethane (PU) coating offer?

The Rip-Stop crosshatch structure stops accidental tears from expanding across the shoulders and chest, while the dense lower fabric withstands daily abrasion. The polyurethane treatment provides wind-blocking and water-repellent protection, preventing rain and snow from soaking into the thermal insulation.

Can the hood on the Patton vest be detached?

Yes, the insulated hood zips off completely. When detached, the vest leaves an insulated stand-up collar to guard the throat, creating a streamlined profile that layers comfortably underneath or over other hooded apparel.

How should I wash and care for this PU-coated padded vest?

Zip up all pockets and the main fastener, then turn the vest inside out. Machine wash at up to 30°C (86°F) on a delicate synthetics cycle using liquid detergent. Do not bleach or use fabric softeners, as they can degrade the polyurethane weatherproofing coating. Hang dry on a wide contoured hanger at room temperature. Do not iron and do not tumble dry.
