Do you know the differences between natural and synthetic down insulation? Synthetic down: ○ holds warm even when wet ○ easier to clean ○ hypoallergenic ○ low-maintenance product ○ dries quickly ○ doesn’t have poky feathers that can leak out when the exterior is damaged ○ but it is heavier and bulkier than real down with a lower warmth-to-weight ratio
For most cases - when it's not extreme sports like Mount Everest climbs, professional skiing, long hikes under extreme weather conditions or expeditions in Antarctica - it's best choice. It's suitable for everyday use - as in your favorized street- and sportswear. It can be recycled, reused - and above all it saves nature - especially animals like ducks. Look how cute the baby-ducks are!
