Featherless

A Better Way to Warm

In any environment, in any weather, Featherless synthetic insulation performs better than 700-fill-power down.

Warm as 700-Fill-Power Down

Featherless is the next generation of synthetic insulation. Scientifically engineered with 3M Thinsulate™ to replace natural down, it traps body heat and releases moisture with the optimal warmth-to-weight ratio. This means you can adventure on in subfreezing temps—without the bulk.

Performs Even When Wet

Traditional down jackets lose their warmth, loft, and insulation properties when they get wet, plus may be slow to dry. Because we all know Mother Nature has a mind of her own, Featherless winter jackets use synthetic fill that keeps performing in rain, snow, or a little bit of both.

Ultralight, Compressible & 75% Recycled

A high-performance, highly packable down alternative, Featherless’ 75% recycled construction is light on you and the planet.

To Sum it Up

We partnered with 3M in 2017 to launch Featherless, the next generation of synthetic insulation. A culmination of 2 years of scientific testing, Featherless winter coats and winter vests were engineered to replace natural down insulation—with surpassed warmth and compressibility. Plus unlike a traditional down jacket or down vest, it keeps performing when wet, so it won’t add to your load on treks through rain and snow. With an eye towards sustainability, each lightweight winter jacket in our Featherless line is made with 75% recycled material to reduce its environmental footprint.
