A lightweight, robust rip-stop face fabric allows the down to achieve full loft and its Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish resists rain. Potential wet-out zones at the cuffs, hem and collar are reinforced with 120g of synthetic insulation meaning even less fear of moisture. Highly versatile, the Fenrir hydrophobic down jacket is at home in the vertical as it is in everyday use. Available Now
