WHAT IS DOWN?

The down that we find in the filling of down jackets or parkas generally comes from geese or ducks. It is a plumage formed of light and cottony feathers. It has the particularity of offering optimal thermal insulation and therefore protecting against the coldest temperatures. It is for this reason that it is the preferred insulation for the most beautiful brands of down jackets and parkas such as Nobis, Canada Goose, Mackage or Pyrenex .

WARM WITH A DOWN JACKET …

Down is much more efficient than synthetic insulation in terms of warmth and breathability. The down jacket as well as the down parka are therefore two pieces to favor for the comfort and warmth they provide.

The greater the proportion of down in the model, the warmer the model is. Down jackets with 90% down and 10% feather filling are the warmest.

ALL IN LIGHTNESS!

The other advantage of down is that it is extremely light and ultra-compressible . When wearing it is very pleasant, the weight of the garment is not felt. You will be both comfortable in all your movements and well insulated from the cold. In town and in the mountains, down jackets and parkas will be your best companions season after season.
