Brisbanites are clearly excited for their annual down-jacket stint as temperatures plummet to a daily average of 22 degrees

Our sources report that Jan Cameron, the great mind behind Australia’s favourite puffer, popped a bottle of Monet on Monday morning in lieu of the Channel 7 Sunrise weather report.

“This is just wonderful news for us at Kathmandu. This month of Brisbane winter always yields our annual sales spike!”

Our reporters struggled to record Hillier’s insight over the Woohoos! and Hoorays! coming from her colleagues.

“It’s especially great for me given my living situation relies solely on the salary increase I get at this time of year.”

At this point, The Monet was reportedly going faster than the Kathmandu’s were flying from the shelves! (which is always surprising, given it’s never cold enough in Brisbane to justify purchasing a down jacket).

“Everyone said I couldn’t sell puffer jackets in Brisbane. The bloke from CityBeach said I was a daft prick. To him I say: enjoy this wintery draft, prick!” Cameron exclaimed.

“But I’m all about making the best out of bad situations. Just like how my family always used to call me ‘Jan-man-do’, because my hair styles always exuded a masculine air.” (Jan is pictured below)

It was at this point that our reporter noted that Cameron should probably lay off the drinks at 7am on a Monday.

“Little did they know that it was their trauma-inducing name-calling inspired the name of my hugely successful brand - I changed it from Janmandu to Kathmandu because I like Kath and Kim heaps!”

No more to come.

“They never supported my dreams of owning a puffer jacket boutique, but look at me now! All the fitspo girls, Ascot Mums, and Saturday-morning-Rugby dads need me!”

Jan! We SAID there was no more to come.
