What is Down Fill Power?

WHAT IS DOWN FILL POWER? COMPARING 500 VS 700+

In this video, we compare what different down qualities look like when outside of a sleeping bag or jacket. We answer the questions of why it is important to buy a higher fill power sleeping bag.

Fill power is a way of rating the quality of down in a sleeping bag or other down product. The higher the fill power the higher the quality of the down. This typically refers to the percentage of down clusters vs. feathers.

We also give visual examples of a 500 fill power down vs a 700 plus fill power down. This allows you to really understand how much higher quality down makes a difference.
