Our Volant Jacket got an update! For more sizes and new colors, check out the new Volant Down Jacket.
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

United StatesThe most comfortable jacket I've ever worn
I’m 5'4" and 120 lbs. The XS fits me perfectly in terms of sleeve length and overall fit. However, if you plan to wear multiple layers underneath, it might be better to go one size up. This jacket works great for Wisconsin winters.

United StatesAllow me to reintroduce myself !
My experience with the Volant Down Jacket is what an incredible piece of garment. It extremely warm and water resistant. Perfect for the NYC winters . I’m excited to purchase more products from Feathered Friends. Especially knowing how the product is sourced and produced makes it even more significant.

United StatesWorking 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

United StatesExcellent 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.
