Description
Wish your favorite puffy was waterproof—and a bit longer? Wish granted. The women's REI Co-op Stormhenge down hybrid parka bonds down and recycled fill to a HydroWall™ waterproof/breathable shell.
850-fill-power goose down is highly compressible and provides abundant warmth for its light weight
Down has also been treated with a durable water repellent (DWR) to help it resist water
Recycled-fiber synthetic insulation is mapped to areas of high heat and high use because it insulates when wet and dries fast
Both down and synthetic insulation is mapped to the body, providing warmth where it's needed and reduced bulk where it's not
Sleeping bag–like draft tube at neck stops heat from escaping
Bonded baffles welded to the shell trap warmth and eliminate cold spots
Insulated 3-way adjustable hood is helmet-friendly and provides protection and warmth
Hood and hem adjust easily with gloves thanks to oversize cordlocks
VISLON® 2-way waterproof zipper can act as a vent to dump core heat as needed
Seam-free shoulders won't chafe under pack straps
Elastic cuffs seal out the elements; synthetic insulation prevents wet-out at cuffs
Internal zippered pocket, internal drop-in pocket, zippered chest and hand pockets securely stow essentials
Hand pockets are placed strategically to work with a pack's waistbelt
Made to reflect our love for people and the planet through the use of recycled and bluesign®-approved materials, RDS-certified down and a Fair Trade Certified factory
