Women’s Warm Down Jacket with Hood – Outdoor Research Transcendent

The Transcendent Down Hoodie merges eco-conscious innovation with premium thermal performance for adventurers and urban explorers alike. Crafted from 100% bluesign® certified recycled nylon shell (20D), this featherlight jacket delivers 800+ fill power Hungarian down insulation – responsibly sourced to exceed RDS standards – while maintaining an impressively low pack volume of just 1 liter when compressed via its integrated left-hand stuff sack pocket.

Engineered for dynamic cold-weather use between 25°F and -10°F (-4°C to -23°C), this technical hoodie combines water-repellent face fabric with windproof construction to shield against sudden weather shifts during backcountry missions or frosty city commutes. The ergonomic design features tricot-lined handwarmer pockets with secure zip closures to protect valuables during alpine traverses or crowded transit rides.

Distinctive functional elements set this apart from standard puffers jackets:
– Articulated hood with adjustable cord lock maintains visibility during storms
– Reflective trim enhances nighttime visibility on trail runs or urban walks
– Internal media pocket with headphone pass-through for hands-free audio
– gusseted underarms improve mobility during layering or active pursuits

Ideal as a standalone urban winter layer or mid-layer for mountain expeditions, its compressible design easily stows in ski packs or travel luggage without losing loft. The bluesign® approved manufacturing process ensures every component meets strict environmental safety standards while delivering 20% better warmth-to-weight ratio than conventional 700FP down products.

Certified by both Responsible Down Standard (RDS) and OEKO-TEX® for chemical safety compliance, this versatile cold-weather essential transitions seamlessly between backcountry belay stations and chilly café terraces while maintaining packable convenience.
