What is the Deploy Down Hoodie?
It's a super lightweight, insulated hoodie designed for ultralight and fast-paced mountain missions in winter. The 1000-fill down delivers an exceptional warmth-to-weight ratio in one incredibly light, packable package.
What is it made of?
This jacket uses a 4D nylon ultralight ripstop, which is unique compared to regular down jacket outer fabrics, making this hoodie so lightweight. It's filled with quality 1000-fill power Goose Down, which is warm, packable, and super light.
Can't quite catch the lingo? Here's a quick breakdown.
4D nylon ultralight ripstop - This material uses a 4-denier composition, which is incredibly light and thin. Nylon ripstop is durable enough to withstand wear outdoors, helping to reinforce the structure of the 4D material, making it reliable, although perhaps not as burly as its thicker counterparts. Therefore, we wouldn't recommend using this like a regular down jacket or as an everyday layer.
Goose Down - Goose Down is some of the highest quality down on the current market, as it has a naturally higher fill power than duck down, making this product incredibly warm, light, and efficient, ensuring you get every bang for your buck.
1000 Fill power - Fill power measures the warmth and efficiency of the down, alongside its ability to loft/fluff up. A rating of 1000 fill power means that 1oz of this down fills 1000 cubic inches of space when fully lofted.
What are its features?
The half-zip front delivers ample coverage and warmth with less weight and bulk, making this jacket easier to pack down.
You can adjust the volume of the hood and cinch to amplify the warmth. Despite its super lightweight nature, this hoodie has an internal stow pocket for small essentials.
