To reduce the price, manufacturers use down and soft feathers, denoting their quantity as 80/20 or 70/30 and marked "feather", and 100% down as "down". The more down - the warmer, options with a down content of less than 70% are suitable as light down jackets.

The synthetic winterizer is the most affordable, but it can reduce its volume after washing. The cost of a down jacket with artificial fibers is cheaper than natural ones.
