SITKA Gear’s new HyperDown Collection represents the pinnacle of warmth, innovation and lightweight performance

SITKA Gear, the leader in high-performance hunting apparel, announces the release of its HyperDown Collection. This new collection sets the highest standards for lightweight warmth and innovation, engineered to provide unparalleled protection in the harshest environments.

The HyperDown Collection represents SITKA’s commitment to providing backcountry hunters and other outdoors adventurers with performance that protects the user and enhances their time in the field. Tested rigorously in the unforgiving Canadian Rockies, the remote Alaskan Chugach Mountain Range and the cutting-edge GORE labs, this collection showcases exceptional warmth, cutting-edge technology and top-tier performance through the world’s most unforgiving environments.
 
“The HyperDown Collection is the warmest static insulation we make,” said John Barklow, Senior Product Manager at SITKA Gear.  “This pioneering insulation blurs the lines between the lightweight packability and warmth of down and the wet weather performance of synthetic insulation. When faced with dynamic late-season weather conditions, HyperDown is your bunker from the elements allowing you to focus on your pursuit.”

Engineered with low temperatures and high altitudes in mind, the HyperDown Collection is constructed to combat the frigid temperatures of remote-country hunts where the weather is as unpredictable at best and dangerous at worst. The innovative insulation blend is wrapped in a durable ripstop face fabric, ensuring further protection during hunts in rough terrain.

HyperDown Jacket

The warmest puffer jacket SITKA makes, the HyperDown Jacket is built to be light and packable for ounce-counting, big-game hunters on their coldest hunts. Made with 800-fill PrimaLoft® Gold down blend, the insulation resists clumping in wet conditions to maintain warmth when hunters need it most. A 27D ripstop face fabric makes the HyperDown Jacket as tough as any conditions in which it may be used, and it is cut to fit over other layers and optics harness for rapid deployment.
