Why We Love This Deal
Fjallraven is one of those brands that seasoned outdoor enthusiasts use as a benchmark of sorts, with gear that’s rooted in a Scandinavian design ethos that puts form and function over anything else. You don’t often see discounts from Fjallraven compared to outdoor brands like The North Face or Merrell, but one of the label’s beloved puffer jackets is 30% off at REI for Cyber Monday.
Thanks to REI’s Cyber Week sale, the $215 Fjallraven Expedition X-Latt Insulated Jacket is down to $150. All four colorways in this jacket are marked at the same price, and sizes small to 2XL are still in stock. The only downside is that this deal ends at the end of the day on Dec. 1, so if you want one, do not wait to jump on it.

The Expedition X-Latt Jacket was built for everything from hikes and commutes to red-eye flights. It weighs in at just 11.2 ounces, making it super lightweight (2 ounces lighter than Patagonia’s Nano Puff, for comparison), and because it packs into its interior pocket, it’s very easy to travel with (and can even be used as a lumbar pillow on a plane).
The shell and lining are made of 100% recycled polyester, as is the 60 g/m² of insulation inside. It’s hit with a PFC-free DWR finish for water resistance, and the jacket will keep you insulated even when wet.

What Owners Are Saying
Layerability and weight are two critical factors to consider when looking for a new puffer, and one reviewer said this jacket is “great for layering” and “surprisingly warm for the weight.” The Patagonia Nano Puff is one of the closest contemporaries we can compare this jacket to, and many owners have said it’s just as good or better: “Nice alternative to the Patagonia Nano Puff.”
Packability is another essential feature for these lightweight puffers, and this one is incredibly easy to travel with. One reviewer said it’s “great for traveling and super easy to pack,” and another owner said it’s easy to “stuff in a backpack for the backcountry or for travel,” confirming that this is a solid hiking choice as well.
Winter is here, and if it’s not cold where you are yet, it’s about to be. The Fjallraven Expedition X-Latt Insulated Jacket is an easily packable and versatile jacket from a legendary brand that is a go-to for lightweight warmth. This price wraps up at the end of Cyber Monday, so you should jump on this deal quickly if you’re interested.
