Color: Black, Size: M. In excellent condition with no noticeable damage. Accessories: Tags, Guarantee card Compared to this winter's new models, the two slide pockets on the chest on the front are attractive. The "VERTEX" was introduced as the highest-grade model of Mizusawa Down. It's no exaggeration to say that this down jacket, which reigned at the top of the Japanese down industry, sold out in an instant after its release. It showed off its popularity and ability. The authentic evolution model that has updated its functions and design to reach even greater heights is the "VERTEX-2". The outer fabric uses DERMIZAX(R) 30d NYLON TAFFETA. This fabric is extremely lightweight yet has outstanding strength, durable water repellency, and breathability, with water resistance (20,000mm) and breathability (10,000g/m2/24hr). It boasts high specifications that are not a problem for everyday use. In addition, by adding pleating to the lining, the area of material that converts light into heat and exhibits heat retention performance has increased, making it possible to promote the effect of DESCENTE's unique active heat retention system "HEAT NAVI(R)". Because it can efficiently convert light into heat, you can stay warm in any weather. Furthermore, with the addition of heat-bonded non-quilt processing and seam tape processing for high water resistance, this garment has achieved further functional evolution and can be said to be unbeatable. The down uses 1000FP Mother White Goose Down (90/10), which exhibits the highest level of lightness and bulkiness. Once you experience the unprecedented lightness and the feeling of being wrapped in down, you will no longer be able to wear other down jackets. Moreover, this down is strictly managed by serial number and is "DOWNPASS" certified, which allows you to track the entire procurement process of all the down feathers. This is a standard that guarantees that the feathers were ethically raised and harvested based on animal protection, as established by DOWNPASS e.V. in Germany, and that high quality standards are maintained for the feathers.
