Is it warm enough for extreme cold?

Yes. This is a very warm insulated jacket, suited to treks and expeditions in extreme cold, as well as long stops in exposed conditions.

Does it stand up to rain and wind?

It’s water-repellent, not waterproof: its DWR treatment sheds water, and its insulation retains warmth even when damp. The double-layer construction shields you from strong winds; in sustained rain, wear it under a waterproof jacket.

How should you wear it?

As an outer layer in extreme cold and dry weather, or as a midlayer under a waterproof jacket.

Does the hood fit over a helmet?

Yes: the hood fits over a helmet for technical outings.

How many pockets does it have?

Two zipped chest pockets and one internal mesh pocket.

It does not compress much: it packs into its compression sack but takes up space in your pack.

Which size should I choose?

It runs slightly large: if you are between sizes, choose the smaller one.

How should I wash and dry this synthetic insulated jacket?

Machine-wash this jacket with synthetic insulation (polyester and Sorona) at 30 °C or on a synthetics cycle, no more than once or twice a year. Use a suitable detergent without fabric softener, a gentle 600 rpm spin, and laundry or tennis balls to help fluff up the insulation. Dry it flat, shaking it out as it dries, or tumble-dry on a low heat, then pat it to restore its loft. Store it completely dry and uncompressed.

What are the delivery times for this product?

If you place your order before 1 pm (excluding weekends), it will be dispatched the same day. Allow 2 to 4 working days for home delivery or collection point delivery within mainland France.

Can I return the item if the size doesn't fit?

Yes, absolutely. You have 30 days to return it and get a refund or an exchange. Return shipping is free. The item must be new, unworn, unwashed, and have its original tag.

Who did we design it for?

For hikers and trekkers heading into extreme cold, on expeditions or to Nordic countries, or simply wanting to stay properly warm on a walk.

How warm is it?

Exceptionally warm: a double down jacket, like two jackets layered together, with insulation that retains warmth even when damp. Built for bivvies and long stops in extreme cold.

How much does it weigh, and how small does it pack?

1250g in size M: warmth takes priority over low weight here. It does not compress much but packs into its compression sack.

What makes it different?

Our CIMALOFT® technology combines recycled polyester and corn fibre insulation that retains warmth even when damp. An easy-care alternative to natural down.

When you stop, the cold sets in

In extreme cold, low weight matters less than reliable warmth. At a bivvy, on a trek or during a long stop in exposed conditions, your body cools quickly.

This down jacket is built for when you stop moving. It’s double-layered, like two jackets worn together: its synthetic insulation retains warmth even when damp, while the wind has a harder time getting through. The high collar and zip guard keep the cold off your neck, even without a scarf.

The hood fits over a helmet, two chest pockets keep your map and GPS within reach without removing your gloves, and a drawcord hem helps reduce heat loss at the back.

On an expedition, a trek or simply a walk when you need to stay properly warm: in these conditions, staying warm must never depend on keeping moving.

I haven't tested this anorak outdoors yet. But it's very pleasant, light, warm and breathable. I'm very satisfied with it. To be seen in more extreme conditions!

The down jacket is very comfortable, though time will tell since it hasn't been used much due to the weather.
