Having a well-rounded winter wardrobe is crucial this time of year. Without the proper gear, trekking out in the snow, rain, and freezing temperatures quickly becomes unenjoyable. A durable pair of boots, thermal underwear, and tops for layering are just some of the essentials that deserve a spot in your cold-weather lineup. But don’t forget one of the most important: an insulated puffer jacket.

We found just the solution: Ozark Trail’s Hooded Puffer Jacket. This flattering, insulated coat is on sale at Walmart for just $36. It’s the perfect addition to your travel wardrobe, especially if you’re heading somewhere with a chance of inclement weather. According to the retailer, it’s a best-selling outerwear piece, so don’t wait too long to snag one since it’s bound to sell out.

One of the many perks of the jacket is that it can pack up small to fit into your suitcase or travel bag. But don’t let its lightweight silhouette fool you; it’s very warm, according to several shoppers, thanks to its polyester filling that traps heat but isn’t bulky. If you desire the warmth of a down jacket without feeling claustrophobic, several reviewers say it’s lightweight without sacrificing comfort. Another person praised the interlocking knit storm-cuffed sleeves for keeping cold air out.

Its standout features include side seam pockets, a stand collar, an attached hood with an adjustable bungee cord, a water- and wind-resistant shell, and a soft-lined interior. What differentiates it from other puffer jackets is the Anorak-inspired silhouette with a hidden bungee inside to tighten the waistline. It offers the ability to wear it loosened as a boxier cut and tightened for a more fitted shape. However, some reviewers said it runs big if you’re choosing between sizes. Plus, it’s available in four colors: black, pink, green, and beige, and sizes XS up to 2X.

Snag the puffer jacket that shoppers love while it’s on sale for $36, and keep scrolling for more winter wardrobe essentials available at Walmart, including boots and plush leggings.
