Aconcagua 3 Jacket - Men's

DWR is a treatment applied to fabrics that makes them water-resistant, helping to keep you dry in light rain or snow. Choosing a jacket with DWR means you can enjoy outdoor activities without worrying about getting soaked, while the "non-PFC DWR" option ensures that you're making an environmentally friendly choice.

The term "600-fill down" refers to the quality of the down insulation used in the jacket. A higher fill power indicates better insulation, and 600-fill provides a great balance of warmth and weight. This means you can stay warm in cold weather without feeling weighed down, making it perfect for winter adventures.

Jackets made with recycled polyester are created from recycled plastic bottles and waste, which helps reduce environmental impact. By choosing this material, you're supporting sustainability and minimizing waste, making it a responsible choice for eco-conscious consumers.

An insulated draft-flap is an extra layer of insulation that covers the zipper area of the jacket. This feature helps block cold air from entering, providing additional warmth and comfort. It’s especially useful during windy conditions, ensuring you stay cozy while enjoying the outdoors.

Zonal sheet insulation strategically places different types of insulation in areas of the jacket that are more prone to getting wet or losing heat. This targeted approach ensures that you receive optimal warmth and comfort where you need it most, making the jacket more effective in varying weather conditions.
