Due to its high heat retention capabilities, the Down Jacket was soon adopted by other explorers and adventure teams looking to conquer some of the world's harshest terrains.

Other details of note are the two-tone zip, with brass teeth and aluminium finished sliders, accompanied by a leather pull tab. The concealed side pockets are fleece lined for exceptional comfort and warmth. Off-white drawstrings adjust the waist, hem and hood

The button storm-flap and tonal hood adjuster benefit from bespoke hardware.
