Sintepon, holofiber or natural down (feather) are most often used as a filler. Advantages: the first type has a low price, the second has hypoallergenicity and wear resistance, the third has increased thermal insulation properties. It is jackets filled with natural down that are better than other options for extremely low temperatures. But their cost is higher than products insulated with padding polyester or holofiber.

Before choosing a winter down jacket, you need to pay attention to the features of the stitching:

• vertical;
• squares;
• horizontal;
• diagonal.

If the distance between the lines is more than twenty centimeters, the chances are increased that the filler will still get lost in some place, thereby reducing the thermal insulation properties of the other zone.

Design matters

Laconic monochromatic models are bought by more conservative ladies, bright ones - bold, active and extraordinary personalities.
