Autumn has officially arrived, which means padded jacket season is rapidly approaching (if it hasn’t landed already!).
Leading brands such as North Face, Patagonia, and Barbour command hundreds of pounds, making them quite an expensive purchase.
We’ve discovered New Look’s Black Hooded Cropped Puffer Jacket for £38.99, which bears striking resemblance to North Face’s classic 1996 Retro Nuptse Jacket, costing £315.
Crafted with a shortened silhouette, it also boasts a generous hood, which proves essential for Britain’s changeable climate, where sudden downpours can strike without warning, reports the Mirror.
The jacket isn’t exclusively offered in black either – the puffer is also available in cream, brown and burgundy shades, positioning it as an essential piece for your autumn and winter collection.

From countryside strolls to evening fitness sessions or simply relaxed weekend outings, this adaptable puffer complements everything from denim to smart tailored trousers.
Customers are absolutely smitten with this puffer too, praising it as the ‘ideal’ coat for winter owing to its cosy padding and figure-flattering design.
One shopper commented: “Perfect oversized coat. This jacket is perfect for the colder months, the length is perfect (slightly cropped) and the colour is lovely and good quality too”. A second shopper gushed: “A lovely quality coat and the perfect colour for the winter. Fits true to size and it’ll definitely keep you warm.”
Meanwhile, a third commented: “This coat is great quality and worth the money perfect for cold weather keeps you nice and warm”.
Nearly all the feedback was glowing, though one customer was slightly put off by the cost, noting: “Decent. Pricer than some other places”.
