Men's Lightweight Down Gilet

A World-First...

The very first of its kind; a highly technical goose down gilet and world's first to feature expedition-grade Pertex® Quantum Pro outer fabric crafted from NetPlus® — 100% recycled fishing nets, fully traceable to their source. This tough, innovative, water-resistant fabric makes this Asta our most durable yet. Delivering positive impact while upholding a legacy of uncompromising performance, durability, and longevity.

The Asta boasts our optimum warmth-to-weight balance and 850 Fill Power DownTek™ hydrophobic down with a premium 93/7 down/feather ratio, the highest practically possible. DownTek™ down stays dry 10x longer and dries 3x quicker than standard down. Our ethical approach complies with the Responsible Down Standard, and our hydrophobic down uses bluesign®-approved clean chemistry for its water repellent treatment.

A lightweight multi-use piece for flexibility on the mountain and everyday wear in the valley; wear under a shell as a minimalist midlayer for core warmth, or as a standalone.

Also available as a jacket.

Reviews displayed include the earlier editions of the Asta. We’ve kept them here to showcase the Asta legacy while introducing this world-first version.
