Sierra Designs DriDown™ Gnar Lite – Stay Warm and Dry Up Quicker
By Editor | September 25, 2013
The Gnar Lite DriDown jacket can be worn by itself on cool windy days or even under a shell on frigid days. As the DriDown name suggest Gnar Lite jacket is filled with 800 fill DriDown™ hydrophobic insulation for superior warmth, especially on those bone chilling, wet damp days.
Extremely light and compressible for a down jacket, the Gnar Lite can fit in all your travel backpacks or luggages.
So what is the difference between DriDowns and regular down?
Well, DriDown is sprayed with a microscopic polymer to create a hydrophobic finish on each individual down plume. This coating gives DriDown™ the ability to stay dry longer, loft better, and dry faster than regular down.
The result is better retention of heat which benefits the wearer in any environment.
