DOWN KNOWLEDGE

Natural Insulation
Down is known for its impressive warmth-to-weight ratio, compressibility and overall comfort. In terms of warmth, nothing can rival down. Not even the best synthetics on the market that have been specifically engineered to simulate the qualities of down.
WHAT IS DOWN?
Down is the layer of “feathers” that are closest to a bird’s body. Down is a very small part of the bird, growing as an undercoat on the belly and protected by a layer of feathers. Down is NOT the same as a feather. It has a completely different structure.

Down Fill Power
Fill power refers to the quality of down. Fill Power is simply a measurement of loft, measuring the amount of air trapped in cubic inches per 30 grams of down. Fill power does not refer to the amount of down used. The higher the number (800 fill, 700 fill, 600 fill etc.), the better the down and the more loft and warmth it will provide.
