All in all, Mountain Hardwear has engineered a pair of down pants worth buying for serious outdoorsmen and women seeking serious performance apparel for the most difficult of environmental conditions. No doubt an excellent value buy despite the high price tag. Down is great until it gets wet. That’s probably its biggest downside. Once it does get wet, it not only loses its insulating properties, but it becomes heavy and can be slow to dry. Cleaning down garments requires special care; most suggest a mild down-specific cleaning product, front-loading washer, and other particulars when it comes time to clean. Lastly, down is expensive. The 900 fill Primaloft Gold insulation utilized here is remarkably lightweight, compressible, and insulates when wet. It’s one of the superior choices of synthetic down on the market – Sitka has truly engineered this garment for serious outdoorsmen. The Primaloft is even paneled in the high-compression area of the seat to avoid cold spots while sitting and better manage moisture and warmth, so these pants won’t mind if you take a seat somewhere chilly!
