Sustainable Materials & Construction
We built the Truth by Republic puffer jacket with planet-friendly materials that don’t compromise on performance. The outer shell uses 100% recycled polyester ripstop, diverting plastic bottles from landfills while delivering tear-resistant durability.
Inside, recycled polyester fill traps body heat in lightweight loft pockets, maintaining warmth even when damp. We’ve treated the shell with a DWR (durable water repellent) finish free from PFCs, so light precipitation beads off without harmful forever chemicals. Every stitch, zipper, and toggle is built to last multiple seasons—because the most sustainable jacket is the one you wear for years.
Sizing & Fit Guide
The Truth by Republic puffer jacket runs true to size with an intentionally oversized, boxy cut. We recommend ordering your usual size for a relaxed fit that accommodates thick sweaters underneath. If you prefer a closer silhouette or plan to layer only over tees and light knits, consider sizing down.
This jacket measures approximately 27 inches from shoulder to hem in size medium, hitting mid-hip for balanced coverage. The dropped shoulder seam and roomy armholes allow unrestricted movement whether you’re cycling, hiking, or just reaching for the top subway rail.
Care Instructions & Longevity
Keep your Truth by Republic puffer jacket performing like new with simple care. Machine wash cold on gentle cycle with a mild detergent—avoid fabric softener, which can break down the DWR coating. Tumble dry low with two clean tennis balls to redistribute the fill and restore loft.
Every 10-15 washes, reapply a PFC-free water-repellent spray to maintain the shell’s weather resistance. Spot-clean small stains with a damp cloth and mild soap to extend time between full washes.
