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

Winter Down Jacket Masterpiece

I really like it. Better than expected. I’m normally a large but bought extra large and it’s perfect. I’m 5’11 190 muscular build. Jacket fits great with just any shirt and also with a few layers. I like everything about the hood. My XL came in at 26 Oz without hood and 29 oz with hood. This thing is basically a lifetime piece that I can see getting better with time. It’s badass!

Incredible Gear, Great Service

We rented Volant Pants and Parkas for a trip to the Arctic for a narwhal/polar bear expedition. Temperatures hovered around freezing the entire trip. Overall, the gear was warmer than needed, but during Komatik (sled) travel, all that loft was definitely required. Customer service was great end to end. Ordering was easy, and when our start date was adjusted by the operator to be a day earlier Feather Friends adjusted with no problems. Our gear arrived two days before we departed compactly packaged and with a return label. The whole process couldn't have been easier. The gear was clean, super warm, comfortable and had all the right amount of pockets while staying minimal. My only comment. If you're bigger than a mens 32" waist, get a large pant. Thanks to Feathered Friends we were by far the best equipped and most comfortable people on the expedition! -Josiah and Angie
