Down Pants: FAQ

How do I ensure the size fits correctly when ordering globally?

AliExpress sellers often use Asian sizing which runs 1-2 sizes smaller than US or EU standards. Always ignore the letter size (M, L, XL) and match your waist and inseam measurements in centimeters against the seller's specific size chart.

How can I verify the quality of the down insulation?

Look for a 'Fill Power' rating of 600 or higher and a 'Down Content' ratio of at least 90%. Reputable listings will often show a transparency test or a video demonstrating the loft recovery after compression.

What shell material is best for durability and warmth?

Seek out high-density ripstop nylon (20D or 40D) with a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish. This prevents the down from leaking through the fabric and protects the insulation from losing its loft when exposed to moisture.

Will the pants arrive flat or damaged due to shipping compression?

Down is highly compressible and is usually shipped in vacuum-sealed bags to save space. Once unboxed, shake the pants vigorously and hang them for 24-48 hours to allow the down clusters to fully expand and regain their thermal properties.

Recommendations for buyers

✓
Fill Power vs. Fill Weight
Fill power measures the loft/quality of the down, while fill weight measures the quantity. For extreme cold, look for a combination of 700+ fill power and at least 150g of fill weight.
✓
Baffle Construction
Choose 'Box-Wall' construction for maximum warmth as it eliminates cold spots at the seams, whereas 'Stitch-Through' is lighter and better for moderate winter temperatures.
✓
Ankle and Waist Seals
Ensure the design includes elasticized cuffs or drawstrings at the ankles to trap heat and prevent snow or wind from entering the garment.
