    How do you store a puffy jacket?

    I have a First Lite Uncompahgre jacket and am wondering how people store a puffy jacket. I was worried to hang it in the off season because I didn't want the shoulders to go flat. Is it acceptable to hang the jacket or would I be committing a cardinal sin of puffy jackets?
