Who did we design it for?

For expedition alpinists and climbers facing extreme cold, during prolonged rest phases when retaining heat becomes essential.

Designed for high-altitude bivouacs, rest stops in extreme conditions, and moments of stillness when temperatures drop rapidly, often with moisture present.

For those who prioritise reliable thermal protection when activity slows, because in these conditions, staying warm doesn't depend on movement.

How do you wear it?

As an outer layer in extreme cold and dry conditions, or as a mid-layer under a hardshell.

Generous fit — size down to avoid thermal bridging.

What makes the difference?

Its insulation CIMALOFT® synthetic retains its warmth even when wet — making it the go-to thermal layer for expeditions in extreme cold, where moisture can be present.

Insulation for extreme conditions

In extreme cold, the priority isn't weight — it's thermal reliability. At the bivvy, during extended rest stops or exposed waits, the body cools rapidly. Inadequate insulation then becomes a genuine risk.

This down jacket is designed for the moments when you stop. Its synthetic insulation retains its properties even in wet conditions, delivering consistent warmth when activity slows. Its high thermal protection makes it an ideal ally for bivouacs, periods of inactivity at altitude or long rest stops in the cold. For every situation where you need to stay exposed without moving.

Because in these conditions, warmth must never depend on movement.

This is a superb puffer jacket- warm, lovely touches like velvet inside sleeve ends (very important as my morel expensive jackets fail miserably in that department) and at zip guard. I actually got rid of a Paramo jacket which was twice the price ( a good jacket though) but chaffed the wrists and cold studs and zip very unpleasant at the throat. To be fair I think their newer version has addressed that problem but I think CiMalp does a better job in every way. Totally recommend this Himalya puffer for warmth,comfort, style and ethical sustainability.

Taille grand mais le S me va très bien moi qui a l’habitude de porter du M. c’est la meilleure doudoune que j’ai pu mettre et tester. Je travaille de nuit en extérieur toute l’année et j’ai vraiment besoin d’un vêtement chaud respirant et surtout qui isole du vent et de l’humidité. Tous les critères sont réunis pour cette doudoune et le confort est réel. Cet hiver elle ne me quittera plus.

J’ai suivi les recommandations, je mesure 1m73 pour 60 kg , j’ai donc opter pour une taille S. Effectivement c’est parfait ! Je suis très satisfait de cette doudoune reçue très rapidement. La chaleur est au rendez vous, un vrai bonheur à porter, vraiment très confortable. Les poches sont larges et très douces au toucher. Je pense vraiment que le rapport qualité prix est très bon. Bref je suis content !

An excellent jacket! I'm about 1.8m and 77/78 kg and this medium fits just right. It's well made, just heavy enough to feel substantial but not so heavy that you can't carry it around all day - it comes with it's own pack-pocket too. So far I've only used it once on cold day in December in the Herault, and it kept me beautifully warm, with just a long-sleeved shirt underneath and a warm hat on top. I wanted a highly visible, warm top for the autumn/winter that wasn't bright orange - and this fits the bill. Looking forward to more (cold) birding in this when I return in February. Thoroughly recommended.

Parfait. J'avais un peu peur sur la couleur annoncée : violet sur la fiche de l'article, mais finalement c'est un très beau bleu tirant très légèrement sur le violet. Produit qui tient particulièrement chaud. J'ai pris taille S pour 172cm et 67kgs ça taille bien. Je l'ai essayé avec un pull en laine dessous c'est ok mais pas plus de couches. Produit de qualité avec de grandes poches bien douillettes. Très Satisfait de mon achat.
