In our quest for continuous innovation in the outdoor industry as well as our long-standing commitment to sustainability, Marmot presents a groundbreaking alternative for water resistant down treatments in our revamped 800FP Gas Bag series. Introducing new 100% recycled Pertex® shell fabrics and a new sustainable DWR alternative from Allied Feather, ExpeDRY. Helping down to retain loft and dries 50% quicker than untreated down. With the addition of slant wall-baffles giving effective and lightweight down control while eliminating cold spots.
I guess because well made well designed down bags are all basically about the same weight and pack size for the same quality and amount of down in them. So it's not that Marmot are making down bags - they've been doing that for donkey's years - it's that these bags have got added magic gold dust in them, that at least sounds very cool - I have no idea if it actually works though!
