"low-puff down" means low warmth

Ranked #650 - Kids' Jackets

Looking for the warmest coat for my 5-year-old son I tried this one. Nice coat, and nice value at the sale price. But it's essentially a thin down jacket inside a sturdy shell; sounds like a good idea, but warmth is about loft, and this coat doesn't have much loft. I got a North Face McMurdo instead. Great customer service from Backcountry.com.
