Discover the Technical Insulation and Design Behind the Lava Down Puffer

Investing in high-fill power down outerwear guarantees maximum thermal efficiency without adding uncomfortable bulk or excess weight.

Built with a high-tenacity 10-denier micro ripstop Pertex Quantum® exterior—inspired by lightweight aeronautic parachutes—this jacket traps warm air close to the body while shedding light rain and snow thanks to a durable water-repellent finish. Inside, high-loft 850 fill power goose down (90% down, 10% feather) delivers exceptional warmth-to-weight performance. Thoughtful functional detailing includes an adjustable rear hood with elastic binding, a cinchable hem for a custom windproof fit, and a specialized grosgrain draft tube that prevents the zipper from snagging on the shell fabric.
