Quilted jackets not only reliably protect against the cold due to their light padding, but also have a light weight. Even in stormy and rainy weather conditions, this jacket is a good choice.

In summer, a light quilted jacket is useful, which can simply be "pulled over" to provide necessary warmth on cool days. But also in autumn the quilted jacket is suitable as a functional transitional jacket, which should not be missing in any closet. Depending on the density of the filling, a quilted jacket can be the perfect essential for any season. Alternatives to quilted jackets in the inter-seasons are, for example, light jackets or transitional jackets.

What materials are camel active quilted jackets made of?

Quilted jackets are made of different materials used for the outer fabric, the filling and the lining. Here are some of the most common materials:

• Outer fabric: Usually synthetic materials like polyester or nylon are used because they are light, durable and water repellent. Sometimes natural materials like cotton or wool are also used, but they are less weather resistant.
• Filling: The filling is responsible for the insulation and thermal performance of the quilted jacket. There are two main types of fillings: Down and synthetic fibers.
• Down: Down is the soft, fine feathers of ducks or geese and provides excellent warmth at a low weight. However, they are more expensive and less water repellent than synthetic fibers.
• Synthetic fibers: These are made of polyester or other synthetic materials and are a cheaper, lighter and more water repellent alternative to down.
  We at camel active attach great importance to the issue of sustainability and pay attention to the welfare of animals, which is why we have decided not to produce with down.
• Lining: The lining of a quilted jacket is often made of materials such as polyester, nylon, cotton or blended fabrics. Sometimes a moisture wicking material is also used to wick moisture away from the skin and out of the jacket to increase comfort.

What are the functions of a quilted jacket?

Due to the individual quilting with synthetic fiber filling, the quilted jacket keeps you well warm even in sub-zero temperatures. Many of our women's quilted jackets are also equipped with a stand-up collar and removable hoods to protect even more efficiently from wind and weather.
