Ghost Whisperer Down Jacket - Women's

RDS-certified down means that the feathers used in the product come from ducks and geese that have been treated humanely, following the Responsible Down Standard. This certification ensures that the birds are not live-plucked or force-fed, giving you peace of mind that your purchase supports ethical sourcing.

The 800-fill rating indicates a high-quality down insulation that provides excellent warmth-to-weight ratio. A higher fill power means the down can trap more air, resulting in better insulation. This means you can stay warm without the bulk, making it perfect for cold weather activities.

Ultra-lightweight nylon ripstop fabric is designed to be both durable and lightweight. The ripstop technique prevents tearing and ripping, making it ideal for outdoor gear. This means you can enjoy your activities without worrying about damaging your jacket, and its light weight ensures comfort and ease of movement.

A packable jacket can be easily folded or compressed into a smaller size, often fitting into its own pocket. This feature makes it convenient to carry when not in use, allowing you to take it along on hikes or trips without taking up much space in your bag.

The drawcord hem adjustment allows you to tighten or loosen the bottom of the jacket. This feature is useful for keeping warmth inside and preventing cold air from entering, enhancing your comfort during outdoor activities. It also allows for a customizable fit, ensuring the jacket stays in place while you move.

While RDS certification primarily focuses on the ethical treatment of birds, it often correlates with higher quality down. Brands that prioritize responsible sourcing typically invest in better materials and manufacturing processes, resulting in a product that not only supports animal welfare but also performs well in terms of warmth and durability.
