Down keeps you warm without the weight. It traps air better than almost anything else, so you get serious heat for very little bulk. Pack one good mens down jacket into a rucksack side pocket and forget it's there until you need it. Best suited to cold, dry days.

The down inside these jackets varies in quality, and that is where fill power comes in. Higher fill power means the down springs back better and traps more warm air for the same weight, which is why a premium puffer jacket can feel surprisingly light for the heat it gives.

Pair a water-resistant outer with a good DWR coating, and you've got a jacket that shrugs off a passing shower while keeping all that warmth locked in. It compresses down small, recovers its loft fast, and earns its place as the one jacket you reach for from October through to March.

Yes, on cold, dry days. A lightweight puffer jacket packs small enough to carry all day, so you can pull it on at the summit or during breaks and stay warm while you stop.

Most down jackets can be washed on a gentle cycle using a down-specific cleaner and then dried on low heat with dryer balls to restore loft. Always check the care label first because some technical fabrics need extra care.

A down jacket should sit close enough to keep out draughts but still allow a base or mid-layer underneath. If the jacket feels tight and compresses the baffles, the insulation will not work as effectively.

Down is usually best for cold, dry conditions where low weight and packability matter most. Synthetic insulation is better for damp or mixed weather and for people who want easier care and faster drying times.
