Mens Lightweight Down Body Warmers provide an extra insulation layer for your core without adding extra bulk to your arms.
These body warmers are manufactured from an ultralight soft down-proof 36gm² polyamide mini ripstop shell fabric that is extremely breathable, windproof and water repellent*. Baffles in the fabric are constructed using micro-stitch through techniques to prevent down migration through the cottons and to provide excellent down stabilisation.
All Sub Zero down body warmers are filled with the finest grade of ethically sourced European hydrophobic goose down and feathers to a composition of 90/10. The durable water repellent (hydrophobic) treatment on the down helps it to repel moisture, enabling the down retain its loft in damp weather and to dry quicker when wet. With 750+ fill power and a total down content of 90g (large size), this makes these vests some of the warmest in their class.
On the outside there are two zipped hand warmer pockets and a zipped left hand chest pocket, all with textured pullers for better grip. Inside there is a zipped chest pocket on the right hand side and an elasticated storage pocket on the left hand side. The full length zip has a wide wind baffle on the reverse that also incorporates a micro fleece chin guard for extra protection. All zips used in these body warmers are supplied by YKK for unparalleled quality and reliability.
The fit is snug, but still large enough to allow them to be worn over a couple of layers, including a jumper. Single handed operation drawstrings on either side of the body allows the wearer to fully adjust the hem of the vests for a close fit. A small back drop on the reverse of the vests provides protection to the lower back when sitting down, and reflective logos on the chest and the back neck increase your visibility. When not in use, these body warmers can be packed down in to a compact stuff sack (included) for storage in a jacket pocket or rucksack.
* The micro ripstop shell fabric is waterproof but the stitching and zips are not, so water will eventually permeate through these areas.
