Grough reviews the Filoment insulated down jacket

Grough reviews the Filoment insulated down jacket

By Alice Peyredieu

With unparalleled insulation and a featherweight design, the Filoment Jacket defies expectations, keeping adventurers warm and comfortable, even when temperatures plummet.

"Warmth was good and the Alpkit jacket resisted snow and sleet showers quite well. The jacket also blocked the wind well. Overall, the jacket was comfortable and didn’t restrict movement.

The Filoment represents good value for money for a down jacket and has good green credentials. It’s lightweight but still provides a good level of warmth."
