How true. I have a cheapo Eddie Bauer down jacket that I have had for at least 10 years and it has been thru so many washings and tough stuff and still keeps me toasty warm. I need to replace it because...well..my figure isn't a size small anymore <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" />

Lower volume down is necessarily denser because of the bulkiness of the down plumes not being the lightest 800+ stuff. It makes for better stand in the wind clothes to have 550-650 fill IME too <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" />
