700 Fill Down
Goose down is a wonderfully powerful thing-highly compressible, it provides exceptional warmth in a lightweight package. The quality of down and its ability to provide warmth is reflected in its fill power. The fill power of goose down is a measure of two important features: its warmth-to-weight ratio and its compressibility, both critical to the user's warmth and comfort. Fill power is measured by placing an ounce of down in a graduated cylinder and measuring the volume the down occupies in cubic inches. Thus, an ounce of 700 fill power down occupies 700 cubic inches. 850 fill power is the highest commercially available, the lightest, most readily compressible and offers the best warmth-to-weight ratio.
