DWR Treatment stands for Durable Water Repellent. It’s a special coating applied to the fabric of the jacket that helps repel water, keeping you dry in light rain or snow. This means that even if you get caught in a drizzle, the jacket will shed water rather than soak it up, enhancing your comfort and keeping you warm.

A jacket with 600-fill down insulation is designed to provide significant warmth. The "fill power" rating indicates how fluffy and effective the down is at trapping heat. A higher fill power means better insulation, so 600-fill down is a great choice for cold weather, ensuring you stay cozy without being weighed down.

Heatseeker Eco is a lightweight synthetic insulation that offers excellent warmth while remaining breathable. The "Eco" designation means it’s made from recycled materials, making it an environmentally friendly option. This insulation is perfect for those who want to stay warm without compromising on sustainability.

Zonal insulation refers to the strategic placement of different types of insulation in specific areas of the jacket. This design ensures that high-wear areas receive more durable insulation, while other areas may have lighter insulation for breathability. This thoughtful approach enhances overall comfort, warmth, and durability, making the jacket more effective in various conditions.

A fixed hood is permanently attached to the jacket, providing consistent protection from wind, rain, and snow. This design ensures that you won’t lose the hood while out and about, and it offers reliable coverage to keep your head warm and dry. It’s a practical feature for anyone who spends time outdoors in unpredictable weather.

While DWR Treatment helps repel light rain and snow, it is not designed for heavy downpours. If you expect to be in very wet conditions, it’s best to look for jackets with additional waterproof features. However, for everyday use and light precipitation, a DWR-treated jacket will keep you comfortable and dry.
