Why We Made This...
When you're setting out to traverse miles and miles of terrain with countless feet of elevation gain, there shouldn't be a single ounce in your pack that isn't pulling its weight. The MicroDown collection was engineered to keep unnecessary weight off your back and still provide next-level protection from the strains of the wilderness. Using a treated down insulation that withstands moisture and compression, MicroDown makes no concessions when it comes to warmth. However, ultralight doesn’t have to mean delicate, so we wrapped this top-tier insulation in a ripstop fabric that withstands real-world use in the backcountry.
