Superlight down jacket
Crux’s Neo down jacket is a lightweight layering piece specifically tailored for female adventurers. It is designed to help you maintain that fine balance between overheating and getting cold, making it ideal for keeping the chill at bay when out in above-zero Celsius temperatures, or for evening warmth on summer mountain treks. A low fill weight minimises overall weight and bulk, yet the ultra-premium 900 fill power Polish goose down delivers vital warmth. It has a close fit that extends down over the hips and presents a slim, flattering profile. A full zip, Lycra-bound hood and water-resistant face fabric add versatility for mixed conditions.
- Two zipped hand-warmer pockets
- Full zip with inner baffle to prevent cold spots
- Fixed hood with Lycra-bound edge
- Lycra-bound cuffs and hem to lock in warmth
- Filled exclusively with ethically recovered 900 fill power Polish goose down

- Always store your jacket uncompressed in a dry, airy place
- Try to keep it as clean as possible to minimize washing (this ultimately damages the down)
We highly recommend you hand-wash your down garment or, alternatively, use a professional service.

Crux kit is designed for mountaineers, by mountaineers. Well, actually, by one mountaineer – since this specialist brand is entirely owned and operated by New Zealander Carol McDermott.
Carol is a trained chemicals and materials engineer with a background in the outdoor industry. He’s also a highly experienced alpinist and climber, with ascents in most of the world’s great ranges to his name. That’s a pretty good CV for designing the world’s most uncompromising outdoor kit, focused purely on performance in the most demanding conditions. Which is why Crux use only the best quality materials, like Polish white goose down and premium Japanese fabrics, with stringent quality control that puts the big brands to shame.
