About Winter Jackets

From down to synthetic, winter insulated jackets come in a variety of insulation options that cater to different needs. Down insulation, known for its exceptional warmth-to-weight ratio, uses natural feathers from geese or ducks to provide maximum heat retention. Synthetic insulation, on the other hand, utilizes man-made materials such as PrimaLoft or Thinsulate to offer insulation even when wet. Each insulation type has its benefits and considerations, making it essential for outdoor enthusiasts to understand the different choices available when choosing a winter jacket.

Frequently Asked Questions


What is the difference between a parka and an insulated jacket?

Parkas are generally longer, heavier, and more protective than insulated jackets and are designed for extreme weather conditions, while insulated jackets are shorter and lighter, and meant for less harsh weather conditions. Lightweight insulated jackets are versatile and can be worn in a variety of situations, such as a mid layer for sports like ski, snowboard, hiking or camping. They can also be worn as an everyday jacket in cool fall or spring weather.

Do puffer jackets keep you warm?

Puffer jackets, also known as a puffy or quilted jacket, do keep you warm but you have to know what to look for..
These jackets are made up of down or synthetic insulation that’s squished between two layers of water resistant technical fabric. The stitching of a puffer jacket––and, what gives the garment the “puffy” look––evenly distributes the filling.
The final product is an incredibly warm and lightweight staple. At Altitude Sports we offer a range of high-quality puffer jackets whether you’re looking for extreme outdoor sportswear or cost-effective layers.

What are the types of jacket insulation?

Some of the most popular types of insulation include down insulation: made from the plumage of ducks or geese and synthetic insulation: made from man-made materials such as polyester. Primaloft is also a synthetic insulation that mimics down insulation.
