Boys' Puffer and Padded Jackets
A boys' padded jacket is the coat most families reach for from October to March. Quilted channels hold the filling close to the body, so a puffer keeps him warm without the weight of a wool coat. The range spans babies, younger boys and teenagers, and each age group also has its own page if you want a narrower choice.
Puffer and padded jacket are two names for the same thing: a quilted coat filled for warmth. Length is the main choice. A boys' long puffer coat covers his hips and the top of his thighs, which helps at a cold bus stop, while a shorter jacket is easier to run and climb in. A boys' black puffer coat hides mud and school-bag scuffs far better than pale shades.

Your questions answered
MINOTI sells boys' puffer jackets online for ages 0 to 15, padded quilted coats for school and weekends in height sizes such as 122 cm for a 6-year-old and 152 cm for an 11-year-old.
What size boys' puffer jacket should I buy for a 6-year-old?
A 6-year-old usually takes 122 cm in a boys' puffer jacket. If he is tall for his age, go up one to 128 cm so there is room for a school jumper underneath and a good chance of a second winter's wear.
Can a padded jacket go in the washing machine?
Most can, but check the care label first. Close the zip, wash on a gentle cycle, and let the jacket dry fully, which can take up to 48 hours, shaking it now and then so the filling does not clump.
