NANGA WHITE LABEL DOWN JACKET TYPE 3

The "Ultimate Down Jacket Type 3" is a stand-collar model based on our "Ultimate Down Jacket Type 1."

Its straight-cut hem creates a sleek silhouette that balances beautifully with any style of trousers.
This design ensures it doesn't feel bulky when traveling by car and pairs perfectly with hooded inner layers.

We especially encourage those who might wonder, "Is it truly warm enough to be called 'Ultimate'?" to try it on just once.
The moment you slip it on, you will experience genuine warmth spreading instantly and a sensation of being gently enveloped by the jacket.

A primary reason people feel cold is the loss of body heat.
The fundamental role of a down jacket is to trap heat within the layer of air held by the down feathers, surrounding the body in warmth.
Therefore, the ability to retain a large volume of air is the key to quality.
Fill Power (FP) is the metric used to measure this performance.
While 600 FP is generally considered high-quality, we utilize Hungarian silver goose down boasting over 900 FP.
Raised in a harsh natural environment, these feathers possess exceptional loft recovery and trap vast amounts of air.
Furthermore, by using UDD (Ultra Dry Down)—feathers treated with a super water-repellent finish—we have overcome the common weakness of down losing its loft when wet.

Another crucial factor determining cold-weather performance is the fill weight—the amount of down used.
For the Type 3, we generously use this high-quality down, filling it to 234g (average for size M)—the structural limit for filling at NANGA's factory.
This specific amount was determined through repeated testing with our craftspeople and pattern makers to achieve the perfect balance between ease of movement and thermal insulation.

To fully showcase the natural loft of this down, we selected a lightweight yet highly durable 2.5-layer waterproof, breathable material for the outer shell. Despite its lightweight 20-denier construction, it combines high levels of waterproofing, breathability, and tear resistance, offering a supple, stretchy, and comfortable fit.
The lining blends stain-resistant, durable water-repellent nylon with anti-static material, ensuring the jacket is easy to put on and take off comfortably, even in the dry winter months.
Additionally, a unique seamless structure around the shoulders prevents cold air from entering while reducing the strain caused by carrying a backpack.

We also focused heavily on everyday practicality.
To prevent collar stains—a common cause of wear and tear or the need for replacement—we lined the neck area with comfortable, stain-resistant block fleece.
Naturally, the jacket is machine-washable at home, making daily care simple.
The collar itself is generously filled with down, designed to seal the gap around the neck and block out cold air.
The outer zippers are highly water-resistant, and the jacket features ample pockets for storage.
Pit zips under the arms allow for the quick release of excess heat and moisture—whether moving indoors or being active—enabling comfortable temperature regulation without removing the jacket.
The front pockets feature a hand-warmer design combining down and fleece, while the hidden chest pocket is engineered so that the surrounding down insulation helps prevent smartphone batteries from draining in the cold.

For the 2026 model, we have introduced a new "cord-adjusting fastener" for the hem.
We re-evaluated the usability of the traditional drawcord—which was often difficult to loosen once tightened—to allow for smooth release and readjustment.

The color concept is "The Beautiful Scenery of Hokkaido."
Rather than focusing on famous tourist spots, we carefully selected and expressed colors inspired by the winter landscapes and crisp air we encounter in our daily lives.

This ultimate down jacket bears no flashy, instantly recognizable icon. At first glance, it looks like a simple garment, yet it was designed to deliver the ultimate cold-weather protection for city wear.
Born in the freezing climate of Asahikawa, this is the ultimate down jacket—the best we could possibly conceive.
