| GOOSE DOWN |
The North Face® uses the highest quality goose down for all its products, and tests each batch of down at three different stages of production to verify its swelling, moisture resistance and ability to recover its volume after compression. The filling power of goose down is an indicator of two important characteristics: the heat/weight ratio and compressibility, two essential elements that provide warmth and comfort. The filling power is measured by placing a constant weight of goose down in a graduated cylinder, and measuring the volume taken up by the down in cubic centimetres. The North Face® products are insulated with high quality goose down with a high filling capacity, ranging from 550 to 900, which represents the best quality down available on the market. |
