Why choose a down jacket?
Down jackets are a must-have for anyone who enjoys outdoor adventures. The down insulation, made from natural feathers, traps body heat while allowing breathability, ensuring warmth without bulk. Down jackets are fantastic as they generally last three times longer than synthetic jackets. The only downside to down jackets is that they will lose thermal properties when wet. Therefore, they are perfect for cold, dry days. With hooded and longer-length down jackets, find the perfect style for your next adventure from sought-after brands like The North Face, Mountain Equipment & Montane
Is a down jacket the warmest?
A down jacket is among the warmest coat options, thanks to its natural insulating properties. Down comes in many different forms and qualities of feathers. The easiest way to determine what you need is to look at the fill power of a down jacket, which explains how much loft the down has. The loft is the amount of space one ounce of down takes up when fully expanded. The higher the loft, the warmer you will be for less weight of down. A jacket between 500+ and 600+ is perfectly suited for everyday use, keeping warm on the way to work. Jackets at 700+ or more are better suited to mountain use, keeping you warmer at colder temperatures.
The fill power also shows how much loft a jacket has. The higher the loft, the smaller the jacket will pack down if it needs to be put in a rucksack or similar baggage.
