The benchmark in performance of all synthetic insulations, PrimaLoft® Gold Insulation is the go-to choice for adventurers
looking for static protection in extreme conditions. Microfibres trap body heat to make this the most thermally-efficient
synthetic insulation available, with water-repellency that insulates even in the wettest weather – maintaining 96% of warmth
when wet. These unmatched thermal properties along with enhanced packability and outstanding softness mean Primaloft is
the perfect choice for light-weight, static warmth.
