The quality of down is indicated with a unit called fill power (FP). When measured at a uniform weight, down with a higher fill power is loftier, holding more air and taking up more space (as shown in the photo below). What does that mean?
Simply put, using down with a higher fill power allows us to create lighter, more packable pieces of insulation. As an example, let's say we create two identical jackets with the same level of heat retention, but one is filled with 550 fill power down, and the other is filled with 1000 fill power down. The 1000 fill power down jacket will be lighter and more packable. In general, 550 to 700 fill power is considered to be of good quality. However, EX Down surpasses that with 800 to 1000 fill power.
