Long down parka with GORE® Windstopper™ shell, made in USA

Western Mountaineering's Ion Parka will keep you happy and toasty warm in the face of cold weather. A unique 3-layer design provides the warmth of most baffled parkas, but with less weight and fewer exposed seams on the outer shell. It is cut longer throughout the body and made with a windproof and highly water-resistant GORE® Windstopper™ shell to keep heat in and moisture out. At just 25 ounces, the Ion is one of the lightest big mountain parkas you will find.

Western Mountaineering's top-notch construction methods, attention to detail, and years of experience working solely with premium down set them apart from other brands; they are simply one of the world's best down companies, bar none. Based in San Jose, CA, they are committed to manufacturing the in USA. Their down is sourced from free-range mother geese who are never live-plucked or force-fed.
