Materials
PAKAFILL® Insulation
Warmer than any synthetically-insulated jacket currently on the marketplace 2.59 thermal CLO value (tested by IDFL Laboratory and Institute). 130 GSM in the body and 110 GSM in the arms and hood. Half the volume of down. Keeps you warm when wet (unlike down, which can be life-threatening on the mountain). Thermoregulates from freezing temperatures to high aerobic activity to keep you in a neutral comfort range.
Eco Durable Water Repellent Coating (PFAS Free) On Shell
Highly water-repellent with multi-needle quilting. Shell fabric has a cotton feel without the stiff plastic touch that most DWR jackets have.
bluesign® Certified Material
Guarantees the highest level of security for consumers to ensure healthy and safe textile materials
Traceable Alpaca™ From Peru
The fiber used in PAKAFILL® is fully traceable, all the way back to the small farm in the Andes where it was sourced from.
Certified Rainproof Stretch Shell
4-way stretch allows for optimal movement, without restriction.
This Parka was designed to enhance the benefits of PAKAFILL® insulation to perform from freezing temperatures to aerobic activities on the mountain. We used 130 GSM in the body and 110 GSM in the sleeves and hood to maximize mobility. To increase the comfort range, we used a breathable lining and added armpit zips, to achieve a shiver-proof and sweat-proof jacket.
This jacket performs best in the temperature range of:

Other Jackets
Sustainable Insulation
Insulated with fiber from free-roaming alpacas in Peru.
Insulated with fossil fuels extracted from the earth (synthetics) or feathers from dead birds (down).
Storm-proof
PAKAFILL® doesn’t wilt when you’re caught in the rain, snow, or wind, keeping you safe in even the most extreme climates.
Weaker when wet. Other insulations (such as down) lose their loft when the weather gets tough, putting you in a dangerous place on the mountain
Sweat and odor-proof
PAKAFILL® is naturally anti-bacterial and odor-resistant (with only 8% moisture retention rate), requiring less washing or care.
Sweaty and smelly. Synthetics trap sweat and bacteria together - a combination which results in odor.
Made with care
The fiber in PAKAFILL® is fully traceable, all the way back to the coordinates of the small farm in the Andes where it was shorn.
Lack of transparency with sourcing and where the fibers or manufacturing is from.

PAKAFILL® has ½ the volume of down due to its uniquely structured hollow air pockets, which increase the fiber’s thermal retention while allowing for increased ventilation - keeping the material light, warm, and dry.
Thermoregulating
Naturally adapts to the temperature, keeping you warm in the cold and cool in the heat
Durable
Alpaca fiber has a tensile strength of 50 N/ktex
Lightweight
Alpaca fiber has hollow air pockets that give it an incredible warmth-to-weight ratio
Water resistant
Dries faster and insulates better than down when wet
