With the best warmth-to-weight ratio of any insulation currently available, down has an incredible comfort range, is highly compressible, and retains its loft even after multiple days in a stuff sack. This isn't your average feather bed: We use only the best down clusters available and provide them with their own weather-protection system. The water-resistant shell is made of ripstop polyester with plied yarns that provide additional strength. The straight fit allows for layering and covers the seat. With zippered handwarmer pockets, a drawcord hem, an interior zippered stash pocket and a DWR-treated stuff sack” (Patagonia, Winter 2002).
