Good to know

Explained briefly

If you want to dig deeper

Knowledge

For movement or for breaks?

First clarify what you need it for: everyday wear, hiking, ski touring or skiing. Then consider whether you need the jacket while moving or mainly when stopped. Warmth requirements, wind and your other layers all work together.

Synthetic fill alone does not prove active insulation. A jacket for sweaty activity must be described as suitable for it. Choose a jacket for breaks based on its intended use; low weight alone does not answer the question of warmth.

For everyday wear and the city, consider parkas, down coats and quilted jackets explicitly described for these uses. Without specific evidence, a warm everyday jacket is not a ski touring jacket.

Down and synthetic fill

Down and synthetic fills are different insulating materials. The specific construction, fill weight and moisture management also determine how you use a jacket.

A water-repellent outer fabric or hydrophobic down does not mean the whole jacket is waterproof. For prolonged rain, you need an outer layer proven suitable for it. Follow the model's care and drying instructions.

What does fillpower tell you?

Loft, or fillpower, describes a property of down fill. The number is not a temperature rating or a complete warmth rating for the jacket. Fill weight, baffles, fit and other clothing also play a role.

For a comparison, the test methods, edition and conditioning must be known and the same. EN 12130 distinguishes between methods. A blanket conversion between US and EU figures is not a substitute. Without a test reference, the comparison remains open.

A gram is not always a gram

Fill weight in grams refers to the mass of fill in a jacket and needs a reference point. Weight per square metre can describe the insulation of a particular area. Total weight, meanwhile, is the mass of the whole jacket.

Do not convert these figures into one another. Do not transfer the fill of a men's jacket to the women's version or an adult figure to a children's model. Even identical names can refer to different generations.

Features for the intended use

For tours, packability, accessible pockets and a suitable hood can be important. Check whether the hood is meant to fit over or under a helmet. These details are different.

Try the jacket on with your planned layers and, if applicable, a rucksack or climbing harness. A two-way zip and high-set pockets are only features of the model if they are explicitly stated.

What do you do when information is missing?

Missing information means unknown. It proves neither that a feature is present nor that it is absent. For a Best Choice, the required information for your answer path must be clarified.

Compare the price only after considering the intended use and fit. The price preview uses the selected available models; it promises neither a specific temperature rating nor an independent product test.

Frequently asked questions

Why are technical details missing for some models?

We only include clearly verified details for the specific model. If the source is unclear or sources conflict, the detail stays open. This prevents a model being labelled Best choice when the value is needed for your answers.
