Question 1

What's the difference between down and featherless fill?

Accepted Answer

Down is the soft plumage beneath a bird's outer feathers, and it traps a lot of air for very little weight. Featherless is a synthetic built to do the same job with no animal fill, and it holds its warmth when damp.

Question 2

Which fill packs down smallest?

Accepted Answer

Down compresses beautifully, and that's exactly why packable jackets exist. Quince's lightweight down styles are cut to squash into a bag and spring straight back when you pull them out.

Question 3

Why choose featherless?

Accepted Answer

It gives you the warmth of a puffer with no animal fill at all, across the same run of lengths, and it keeps insulating when the weather turns wet.

Question 4

What length should I choose?

Accepted Answer

A vest keeps your core warm and leaves your arms free to layer. A cropped or standard jacket will carry you through most of the year. A long puffer or parka covers to the knee for properly cold weather.

Question 5

What's a cashmere puffer?

Accepted Answer

It's a puffer built with a knit cashmere shell instead of a technical outer, so it feels soft to the touch and looks far more polished than most puffers do.

Question 6

What's a packable jacket?

Accepted Answer

A packable jacket is designed to compress into a small bag, often its own pocket. The lightweight down styles are the ones built to do it.

Question 7

Is a vest warm enough on its own?

Accepted Answer

A vest keeps your core warm and leaves your arms free, so it works well on mild days and as a layer under a coat. For deep winter, the long puffers and parkas are built for it.
