Features
Q.Shield® DOWN
Q.Shield® DOWN infuses down fibers with water repellency to maintain insulating performance even when exposed to moisture - the achilles heel of untreated down. Because it's part of the molecular structure of the shell materials, it doesn't wear off, and will last as long as the material itself.

Ripstop stops rips!
Ripstop fabrics are fabrics woven with special reinforcing technique that makes them resistant to tearing and ripping. Used in sails, hot air balloons, kites, and parachutes (disclaimer: jacket will not work as a parachute… or at least hasn’t been tested to).

I have only used it on one hiking and climbing weekend. But, it was comfortable, warm, and during the rain I stayed dry.
