eproof is a lightweight wind resistant nylon fabric ideal for changeable climates. With a Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish and a micro-porous breathable coating, it allows perspiration to escape while keeping moisture out – keeping you warm, dry and comfortable.
Goose and Duck down fill provides the ultimate in insulation for the least bulk. Highly compressible for quick storage when travelling, down insulation will keep you toasty when the temperature drops. Down performance is measured by loft power – the higher the numberthe more efficient the insulation.
