Nuptse Apres Bootie - Men's

RDS certification ensures that the down used in our products comes from ducks and geese that are treated humanely. This means the down is sourced from farms that adhere to strict animal welfare guidelines, ensuring no live-plucking or force-feeding occurs. By choosing RDS-certified products, you are supporting ethical practices in the down industry.

Ripstop fabric is specially designed to resist tearing and ripping, thanks to a unique weaving technique that incorporates stronger threads at regular intervals. This grid pattern makes the material more durable, making it ideal for outdoor gear that needs to withstand rough conditions, ensuring your investment lasts longer.

The "550-fill" rating refers to the quality and insulating ability of the down used in our products. A higher fill power indicates better insulation; 550-fill down is considered good quality, providing warmth while remaining lightweight and compressible. This means you can stay warm without feeling weighed down, making it perfect for cold weather.

The toggle drawcord system allows you to easily adjust the fit of your booties for maximum comfort. By pulling the toggle, you can tighten or loosen the cord, making it simple to customize the fit to your liking. This feature not only enhances comfort but also makes it easier to put on and take off your booties.

Using 100% recycled P.E.T. means that our booties are made from repurposed plastic materials, such as bottles and containers. This reduces waste and minimizes the environmental impact associated with producing new materials. By choosing products made from recycled P.E.T., you are contributing to a more sustainable future.

Opting for products with RDS certification and made from recycled materials not only ensures you are making an ethical choice regarding animal welfare but also supports environmental sustainability. These choices reflect a commitment to responsible consumption, allowing you to enjoy high-quality products while making a positive impact on the planet.
