An update on our best-seller, now made with recycled fabric, this down gilet punches well above its weight when it comes to warmth, packability, and all-season versatility.

Filled with premium 90/10 down and built with a recycled nylon ripstop outer, it’s finished with a PFAS-free DWR coating and down-proofing that holds up to wind, weather, and the long haul. The mini baffle construction keeps insulation where you need it, reducing bulk while maximizing thermal efficiency.

Zipped hand pockets keep essentials close, and the right pocket doubles as a stuff sack when you're on the move. Stretch-bound armholes and hem give you a flexible, stay-put fit that layers cleanly over base layers or under a shell. Corded zipper pulls are glove-friendly and trail-ready.

Light, tough, and designed to go anywhere, from alpine mornings to coffee runs and everything in between.

  • 5
    The overall weight of the garment. Lower ratings indicate heavier, more robust gear designed for extreme weather, while higher ratings mean lightweight options ideal for packability and speed-focused activities.
  • 3
    How effectively the fabric allows moisture and sweat to escape. Lower ratings suit low-output activities where warmth is the priority, while higher ratings are better for high-intensity activities, reducing overheating and condensation inside the garment.
  • 4
    How much warmth the garment provides. Lower ratings favour breathability and mobility, while higher ratings mean maximum warmth for extreme cold, often using high-loft down or synthetic insulation.
  • 2
    The garment's ability to keep water out. Lower ratings are for water-resistant or showerproof materials that handle light rain, while higher ratings signify full waterproofing with sealed seams and durable water repellent (DWR) coatings for prolonged exposure.
  • 3
    How well the garment resists wind penetration. A lower rating means the fabric allows some air movement for better breathability, while a higher rating indicates a near-complete wind barrier, reducing windchill in exposed conditions.
  • 5
    How compactly the garment can be packed. Lower ratings indicate bulkier items that prioritise warmth or durability, while higher ratings mean the garment compresses down small, ideal for fast-paced activities or lightweight travel.
