Why Choose Down Fill?

Down insulation offers the best warmth-to-weight ratio of any sleeping bag fill. It's highly compressible, incredibly warm, and when properly cared for, can last for decades.

Understanding Fill Power

Fill power measures the loft (fluffiness) of down. Higher fill power means more warmth with less weight:

  • 550-600 Fill: Good quality, budget-friendly option
  • 650-700 Fill: Better warmth-to-weight, mid-range price
  • 800+ Fill: Premium quality, best for ultralight backpacking

Pros of Down

  • Best warmth-to-weight ratio
  • Highly compressible
  • Extremely durable (lasts decades)
  • Breathable and comfortable
  • Natural material

Cons of Down

  • Loses insulation when wet
  • Takes longer to dry
  • More expensive
  • Requires careful cleaning
  • Not suitable for humid climates
Pro Tip: Look for "DriDown" or "hydrophobic down" which is treated to resist moisture, addressing down's biggest weakness.
