* The down comes from geese that have been born and raised on free-range European farms with the appropriate conditions. The down is washed with spring-water and then heated to kill any possible germs.
A vest with a 100 grams of filling in a "95/5" mixture includes 95 grams of down and 5 grams of feathers. To explain this even moree precisely: since each down weights only a thousands of a gram, approximately 47,499 down are included in such vest.
** Also called loft or bulking power.Enable by the natural elasticity of the keratin, the horn substance which down consist of. It is measured by putting an ounce (28,35 grams) of down in a standarised flask and loading it with a standard weight. The volume that the down retains under this weight is the fill power in cubic inches. The more the fill power, the better the insulation.
*** Ripstop-tissue of nylon thread, ten times thinner than a human hait. Very soft and dense, therefore water resistant and breathing, at the same time tear-proof. A thread of a lenght from Berlin to Görlitz would be sufficient to weave one square metre Lighty-Gram; its weighrt would be 25 grams.
