Inflating Power of down/feather filling
This 85% down/15% feather jacket has a guaranteed filling power of 800 CUIN (European standard)
. The filling power is a measure of the down’s thermal insulation capacity and its ability to "trap" air. Down with a higher filling power (a higher CUIN number) takes up more space, trapping more air and providing greater thermal insulation.
Weight of the filling
S: 60,3 g
M: 63,9g
L: 67,5 g
XL: 70.1 g
2XL: 75.6 g
3XL: 79.2
The advantages of a duck down and feather filling
The durable filling power of down gives it 3 qualities for hiking and trekking:
- Thermal insulation, thanks to the air trapped in the down and feathers
. Ultra lightweight: down is lighter than synthetic wadding yet provides the same degree of warmth. This saves even more weight in your backpack.
- Ultra compressibility
