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

Ultimate in Quality and Warmth
I’ve owned many “top” name brand down jackets in my life, but this Feathered Friends Volant puts them all to shame. The quality of craftsmanship and fill-weight quantity of one of the highest fill-powers (900+) makes this down jacket exceptionally warm and very comfortable to wear.

Warmest coat ever
Excellent warmth. Light considering the use situation. Would only wish there was a draw string.

Toasty
Had to return a large for a extra large, fits better. Runs small to size. Very warm and light weight. Great all around winter jacket
