The facts at a glance
Black Diamond W Approach Down Hoody
Inspired by “no pack and a pared down rack” kind of days, the Approach Down Hoody easily layers over a sun hoody on brisk multi-pitch rock routes or under a shell on ice climbs and alpine missions. The Approach Hoody’s ultralight nylon ripstop shell features Green Theme International’s revolutionary Breathable Water Protection Technology—an environmentally friendly, PFC-free DWR that’s superior in performance and substantially more durable than other DWR solutions. Inside, premium 800-fill, RDS-certified HyperDRY™ goose down insulation offers high-lofting, incredibly packable warmth that resists inclement weather. When it’s time to move, the jacket stuffs into left front chest pocket and secures to your harness with a carabiner clip loop. For 2023, the fit, design, and sizing has been entirely updated.

Technologies and manufacturing processes
EMPEL DWR by GTT
The PFC-free, extremely hard-wearing and extremely high-performance GTT Empel coating uses a patented process in which the water protection is applied directly to the individual fiber strands of a fabric using a hyperfuse process, thus creating highly hydrophobic properties with optimum breathability.RDS Certified Down
All Black Diamond down-filled garments are certified to the Responsible Down Standard (RDS). The RDS guideline ensures that the down used is sourced according to the highest ethical standards. This includes traceability and an independent assessment of all aspects of breeding, welfare and chain of custody along the entire supply chain to improve animal welfare.
