"Protects against wind and rain, has good padding, and weighs just 590 g."
The outer material of the jacket is GORE-TEX Paclite® Plus.
However, in accordance with the product's concept of being "warmer, lighter, and easier to use," no seam tape is applied to the back of the stitching.
Therefore, since the product itself does not meet the waterproof level required by the GORE-TEX standards, it is marked with a white tag that says "GORE-TEX INFINIUM™."
However, as mentioned above, the outer fabric itself is GORE-TEX Paclite® Plus, so the jacket is extremely waterproof except at the sewn areas, and it is also lightweight and windproof.
The filling is made of synthetic fiber "CLIMASHIELD®".
Among synthetic cottons, it has a very high fluffiness, is lightweight, and is warm.
The good things about synthetic cotton are that it is easy to care for at home, it hardly sheds, and it retains its heat retention even when wet.
The synthetic cotton "CLIMASHIELD®" is a fluffy, sheet-like fabric that resembles cotton.
Therefore, there is no need to worry about the padding bunching up when washed in a home washing machine, nor is there any need to worry about the padding coming out from the seams.
Additionally, synthetic cotton does not absorb moisture, so there is no need to worry about its heat retention suddenly decreasing even if it gets wet in the rain.
In fact, it depends on what level of warmth you need and what you're doing, but unless you're in an extremely cold area with temperatures as low as -30 degrees, the Svalbard will be sufficient.
In fact, Tilak is pushing synthetic cotton because it is more convenient and has many superior features than natural down.
It can be stored in the mesh pocket attached to the back of the waist.
When stored it becomes the size of a pillow, so it is useful when sleeping in a tent or as a lumbar cushion on a chair.
