Yuki Threads Slack Country Puffer 2027 | Sunset Purple

Yuki Threads Slack Country Puffer 2027 | Sunset Purple

The everyday layer that packs into its own pocket.

Everyone has that one piece they grab every single day. For a lot of riders it ends up being the Slack Country Puffer. It is the layer you throw on for a cold first chair, a surf check at dawn, walking the dog or a slushy spring lap, and then forget to take off. Yuki built it from bluesign® approved 100% recycled nylon ripstop and filled it with PrimaLoft® P.U.R.E. 60gsm insulation, so you get proper warmth without the marshmallow look. Sunset Purple brings a warm, punchy hit of colour that stands out on a grey Victorian day and in every lift-line photo.

The party trick is the packable build. The whole puffer stuffs into its internal pocket bag, so it disappears into a backpack on a hike, doubles as a pillow on a camping trip or a long flight, and comes back out when the temperature drops. Yuki designed it to wear under their Slack Country shell, which makes it a smart insulating mid layer for resort days and a stand-alone jacket around town.

Built for Australian Conditions

Australian snow swings between bitter, windy mornings at Mt Hotham and Perisher and soft, warm spring afternoons at Mt Buller and Falls Creek. A packable insulated layer is what makes one jacket setup work across all of it. Wear the Slack Country Puffer under your shell when the wind is howling across the ridge, then peel it off and stuff it in your pack when the sun comes out. Because the shell fabric carries a DWR finish rather than a waterproof membrane, it is best used as a mid layer on wet or stormy days, and as an outer layer on dry, cold days and around town. It is also an easy carry-on for a Japan trip: light, warm and ready for cold airports and colder villages.

It uses PrimaLoft P.U.R.E. 60gsm fill, and Yuki designed it to be worn under their Slack Country shell, so it is built to add warmth as a layer.

Does it pack down?
Yes. Yuki designed it to pack into its internal pocket bag, so it stows in a backpack or carry-on.
