The construction of the XKG Down Transition Jacket exemplifies the performance qualities of the XKG Series and sets a new standard for lightweight and packable layering. Built with 145 grams of 800 fill waterproof down, this jacket has the best warmth to weight ratio of anything in the XKG line-up. This jacket easily fits over any mid-layer piece and can be worn under any of King's shell pieces for when conditions are at their toughest.
Traditional down has its shortcomings when it gets wet it loses all its lofting and insulating power and takes forever to dry. Thats why King's has chosen a new waterproof treated down technology to overcome these faults and deliver a jacket that pushes the expectation of packable down. The exceptional insulating power of this jacket can quickly go from compressed to lofted and traps more air than lesser fills to keep you warmer and performing at a high level.
