This is the ultimate lightweight down jacket, designed specifically for ski touring and a range of extreme outdoor activities where weight and pack volume are crucial. You can use it either as an outer layer or as an insulation layer underneath a shell jacket.
Featuring a premium aeroDownproof face fabric, this jacket provides lightweight weather protection and a soft touch. It is insulated with first-class down for superior insulation while keeping the weight low.
The face fabric is made of a woven lightweight (27g/m2) down-proof 10D recycled nylon fabric that has been treated with a PFC-free DWR for extra water repellency. The down fill is a premium RDS 2.0-certified 850fp down that offers exceptional insulation.
The jacket comes with a helmet-compatible storm hood with one-hand adjustment, hand-warming pockets, a chest pocket, one-hand hem adjustment, soft brushed chin protection, and internal Powerstretch cuffs.
The jacket has a technical fit with a Y-cut and articulated arms for good alpine movement. It can easily be compressed into a packable pocket.
The model is wearing size L (Model height 193 cm/6'3")

Fluorinated DWR finishes make clothing waterproof by repelling water droplets. ‘PFCs’ is the broad term for all fluorocarbon chemicals, of which PFOS and PFOA are sub-groups. Different chemicals in this family have a varying number of carbon atoms, so C6 has six carbon atoms and C8 has eight. While the outdoor industry has moved away from C8 (or 'long chain') PFCs, C6 (short chain) PFCs are currently unbeatable in their waterproofing performance. They're considered less harmful to the environment than C8, but they have not been proven to be safe. PFCs are known as forever chemicals; once created they will never break down and are harmful to people and the planet. To read more about the chemistry related to PFCs, head here.
PFC-Free DWR uses alternative, biodegradable technologies that repels water from the surface of a fabric - such as Fjallraven's Greenland Wax. PFC-Free DWR coatings are water resistant enough for most daily activities, so if you don’t need a highly technical waterproof, consider a PFC-Free garment instead.
By recycling fabrics, we are not only stopping extra waste heading to landfill but also reducing the need for virgin fabrics to be created. Recycled fabrics can be anything from recycled polyester to recycled cotton and where recycled cotton is used, it's often offcuts from factory floors that would otherwise end up in landfill.
Sometimes using animal products can be a more sustainable alternative than using non-biodegradable plastic, but it is imperative that an animal’s welfare is respected. The Responsible Down Standard (RDS) was started by The North Face, Textile Exchange, Allied Feather Down and Control Union. RDS down cannot come from farms that engage in force feeding or live plucking and they must respect the Five Freedoms of animal welfare: freedom from hunger and thirst; from discomfort; from pain, injury or disease; to express normal behaviour; and from fear and distress. Parent farm (the farm where the birds are kept for producing eggs) certification is optional unless the down is harvested there. RDS down is traceable back to source via Track My Down.
