    JCP Puffer stuff sack dimensions

    I plan to try to make a DIY underquilt by adding a lightweight parka zipper along the bottom of the two JCP puffer jackets I received today. That will allow me to fold the arms in and zip the two jackets together along the bottom and make a 3/4 length quilt. this will also allow me to continue using the jacket as a jacket.

    it is my understanding that some of these jackets came with a stuff sack. i figure the factory stuff sack is the optimum size, not to big, not too small. if anyone has the stuff sack, would you mind posting the dimensions so I can try my hand at making one?

    thanks in advance.

    Where did you order your puffer jackets from? I have been looking but I came to the conclusion that it had been discontinued last year and was no longer available.

    The stuff sacks are the only thing I use from the jackets now. My hammock is in one and my tarp in the other. Ive been able to fit 4 puffer jackets in one bag. Pretty sure I could have put more
    As a wise man once said "If woman don't find you handsome at least they'll find you handy." Hang in there.
