A perpetual favorite in the Feathered Friends line, the Volant marks the transition from sewn-through construction to a fully baffled garment. These baffles, combined with high lofting 900+ fill power down, Pertex® Shield® XT waterproof/ breathable fabric, and reinforced sleeves and shoulders creates an incredibly warm, durable, and reliable jacket. Used extensively by the climbing rangers on Rainier, the Volant Jacket is the Feathered Friends recommendation for Northwest summit attempts, chilly ascents in South America, smaller peaks in Alaska, and the lower Himalaya. 


Great For: Mountaineering, Winter Camping, Ice Climbing, General Cold Weather Use

Working outside

Love how warm the coat is working outside with long shifts. Only thing i wish it had is a drawstring at the bottom. Im 6ft 140lbs so the waist is a bit loose but the fit is great

Excellent jacket

This jacket has exactly what’s needed and no more, which keeps its weight low. The loft is very impressive, and it’s very well made. I will be taking it somewhere where the temp is likely to be well below 0 deg F and this jacket should do fine. If I was to want any change in it, it would be for it to be 2” longer to protect below the waist a little bit, which would work well with its 2-way zipper that can relieve any binding.

WARMTH LIKE YOU WOULDN'T BELIEVE - BUY THIS JACKET

Unbelievable warmth. Have to get used to the puffiness but understand it's necessary to maintain the capability to keep the wearer nice and toasty. Very comfortable and lightweight. I'm so glad that I found your product while browsing the web. I will definitely buy other products. Too bad that solid black in my size wasn't available.

Perfect cold weather hunting gear

I’ll start by saying I’m a backcountry elk hunter primarily. Kuiu’s Super Down PRO jacket $399 only has 5oz of 850 fill down where as the Feathered Friends Volant has 11oz of 900 fill down. Kuiu’s down pants 3.2oz 850 fill for $329 Feathered Friends Volant pants 5.6oz 900 fill. $349 Warmth and weather protection is not even comparable. For hardcore hunting gear in Montana or Alaska I don’t think you can go wrong with Feathered Friends Volant. Sure it’s not camouflaged but you’ll be wearing a blaze orange vest anyways so that’s not much of a concern. Also, I’m 5’10 and 185lbs The Large Volant jacket and Medium Volant pants fit me perfectly.
