As Scotland and the rest of the UK brace for even colder weather this week, now is the time to be wrapped up warm when outdoors.
With snow flurries being unpredictable in certain parts, it can be handy to have an extra layer on you at all times. If you’re looking for one that is easy to keep in your bag, then look no further than M&S.
Shoppers have been flocking to the retailer for its Feather & Down Quilted Packaway Puffer Jacket for its ‘packable’ design. Retailing at £55, the firm says it “packs away into a bag for easy on-the-go storage” – meaning you won’t be caught out with the weather.

Designed in a regular-fit, this puffer jacket features a feather and down filling that doesn’t just make it comfy, but also “unbelievably warm”. Meanwhile, M&S’ iconic Stormwear technology will keep you dry and protected from light showers.
You’re further protected from the winter elements with a cosy funnel-neck and long sleeves. Its all over quilted finish with baffle stitching offers a “stylish” aesthetic that shoppers have said will “go with everything”.
The £55 winter jacket is available to buy in sizes six to 24, with four colours available – hunter green, pink shell, black and light natural. Wear it over your outdoor hiking gear, or even your favourite denim jeans and jumper, to keep warm and dry in the current weather.
With an incredible 4.7 rating, it is easy to see why shoppers love the Feather & Down Quilted Packaway Puffer Jacket, as they have heaped praise on it as a “versatile” and “lightweight” layer for the chillier season.
One happy customer wrote: “Stylish, comfy, versatile and SO useful! Keeps me warm when it’s cold but doesn’t overheat when the temperatures rise and packs away brilliantly when I need. A really great buy.”
A second positive review read: “Perfect for packing into a suitcase or handbag for those sudden cold snaps. Great quality too.”
A second shopper penned: “Loved this stylish lightweight jacket. I bought the grey one to go with black jeans. This jacket is unbelievably warm.”
Another glowing review read: “Lovely lightweight jacket, warm and waterproof with good pockets.”
Some shoppers lamented the lack of a hood, with one shopper advising: “Disappointed they didn’t have a hood zipped into the collar like other years, otherwise I would have given it 5 stars.”
