As a necessary item for keeping warm in winter, down jackets are very important to choose a high-quality down jacket. Below I will reveal to you how to identify high-quality suede and choose a higher-end warm down jacket.
First of all, you need to understand what suede is. Suede refers to the outer fabric of a down jacket, which directly affects the thermal performance and comfort of the down jacket. The following are some ways to identify high-quality suede:
1. Suede material: High-quality suede is usually made of synthetic fibers such as nylon and polyester, which is light, Wear-resistant, waterproof and other characteristics. In addition, some high-end down jackets also use various functional fabrics, such as tactical-grade Gore-Tex, Windstopper, etc., to provide better warmth and moisture permeability.
2. Fabric weave: The weave of the suede is also very important. High-quality suede is usually tightly woven and has high wind resistance. , can effectively block the invasion of cold wind.
3. Suede thickness: The quality of the suede can be preliminarily judged by observing the thickness of the suede of the down jacket. Higher quality suede usually has a thicker feel and is easier to maintain with down filling.
4. Suede gloss: High-quality suede usually has an elegant luster and is highly reflective. The better the sheen of the suede, the higher the density of the fabric, which means better windproof and thermal insulation properties.
At the same time, when choosing a warmer and more advanced down jacket, you also need to pay attention to the following points:
1. Down filling: High-quality down jackets are filled with high-quality duck down or goose down, which has rich down content, good elasticity and better thermal insulation performance. Fingerprint fleece is a common premium filler that has higher loft and heat retention properties.
2. Grams of filling: Grams refers to the weight of filling, usually in GSM (grams per square meter). Down jackets with higher gram counts generally have higher thermal properties. Generally speaking, down jackets with filler grams above 200GSM can provide better warmth.
3. Stitching technology: High-quality down jackets use professional stitching technology, such as three-dimensional tailoring, seamless technology, etc., which can effectively reduce the displacement of down and improve warmth retention. performance.
4. Breathability and waterproofing: High-end down jackets usually have good moisture permeability and waterproofing properties, which can keep the interior dry and improve comfort.
In short, when choosing high-quality suede and higher-end warm down jackets, you need to pay attention to factors such as suede material, fabric weave, thickness, and gloss. You also need to consider The above information will help you choose a down jacket, such as filling quality, grams and stitching technology.
