DIXON, CALIFORNIA – KUIU releases the new Super Down LT collection, adding to the current Super Down product line of ultralight, highly packable insulation layers.
The Super Down LT combines water resistant Quixdown insulation with an all-new durable, matte-face fabric, and updated styling for a significant improvement over previous designs. The fabric is lighter, quieter, and more packable, while both the durability and tear strength increased by 50%. The redesigned baffle structure increases loft and warmth throughout the jacket, while the fit is improved for standalone wear and layering.
Unlike typical down insulated jacket and pants that use a shiny face fabric, the Super Down LT features a dull, matte finish for improved concealment. Super Down LT’s fabric beads water and resists saturation thanks to the K-DWR water resistant treatment. The fabric takes on very little moisture and dries quickly after extreme use.
Available in both men’s and women’s, the Super Down LT collection includes a vest, jacket, hooded jacket, and pants. Sizing is a mid-layer fit, so it comfortably layers over a base layer and mid-layer fleece, yet it’s trim enough to layer under our rain gear in the same size.
The jacket and vest feature a new two-stage packability system. It self-stows in the right-hand pocket, with enough room to also stow the Super Down LT Pant. In this configuration it doubles as a comfortable camp pillow. If pack space is limited, a secondary cinch can be used to compress the jacket to half the stowed size.
