What is the Norrona Men's Trollveggen Down800 Hood Jacket?
The Trollveggen Down800 Hood Jacket is Norrona's pinnacle of warmth and comfort in extreme conditions. This jacket is designed for mountaineering and belaying, but excels in many different activities like icy climbing expeditions or casual winter strolls where retaining heat is essential.
What is it made of?
The Trollvegen Down800 jacket is made of aeroDownproof face fabric that offers great weather protection while being lightweight, strong, and soft to the touch. This fabric is made from 100% recycled nylon, which can handle abrasions and harsh weather conditions. Using recycled nylon helps reduce waste and lowers the demand for new raw materials, making this jacket a more responsible choice.
For insulation, Norrona uses 800+ fill power 90/10 duck down, which is certified by the Responsible Down Standard (RDS). This certification ensures that the down is sourced from ducks that have been treated with care and respect, following strict animal welfare guidelines.
The fill power measures how fluffy the down is, and 800+ is very high, meaning the jacket is super warm without being heavy. The down is also treated with PFC-free chemicals to make this jacket water-repellent, so the jacket dries quickly if it gets wet.
The mix of 90% down and 10% feathers provides the best warmth-to-weight ratio, making the jacket very packable.
Additionally, the Trollveggen Down800 meets Bluesign standards. This certification ensures that harmful substances are eliminated from the beginning of the manufacturing process. It also verifies whether the methods used in the production of this jacket are safe for workers and if they reduce a negative environmental impact.
Features:
The jacket has a regular fit with a longer cut in the back for extra protection. This design ensures better coverage during activities such as climbing or belaying, preventing your back from being exposed to cold or wet conditions.
The Trollvoggen Down800 jacket also comes with a storm hood, which is fitted for a climbing helmet and is easy to adjust with just one hand. This feature allows you to make adjustments to the hood without removing your gloves, ensuring you can quickly adapt to changing weather conditions while maintaining full mobility during your climbs or other active pursuits.
Two hand-warming pockets are strategically placed for easy access, providing a cosy refuge for cold hands in chilly conditions. Additionally, an internal pocket offers a secure spot for keeping essentials like phones, wallets, or keys safe and within easy reach.
Thanks to the bottom hem adjustment, you can customise the fit around your waist. By tightening or loosening the hem, you can seal out cold air and retain warmth or create more space for layering. This feature ensures a snug and comfortable fit, enhancing overall protection and comfort in various weather conditions.
Additionally, the jacket proudly features the Norrona Viking logo, symbolising the spirit of resilience and adventure.Like the Vikings who braved harsh conditions with strength and determination, this jacket helps you conquer the elements and embrace your outdoor adventureswith confidence.
