This results in the largest and most resilient down clusters that provide greater warmth than common down.
Muscovy down stands apart for its durability, loft, and purity. Engineered by nature and refined through careful sourcing, it delivers reliable warmth with a focus on long-term performance.
Muscovy ducks require a longer maturation period, typically 90 to 100 days, around twice that of standard ducks. This extended growth allows larger, more developed down clusters, stronger fibre formation, and improved overall insulation quality.
Muscovy ducks produce notably large and resilient down clusters. Each cluster features thicker, stronger fibre stems compared to traditional goose down. This increased structural integrity helps the down maintain loft over time, resisting breakdown through repeated use and compression.
The architecture of Muscovy down is what truly defines its performance. The clusters contain a higher proportion of reverse barbs, fine filaments that interlock and expand.
This structure: Enhances loft, improves air trapping, and increases thermal efficiency. The result is insulation that has a highly warmth to weight ratio.
Muscovy down plumes contain less natural fat and oil than other down types.
This means reduced odour retention, cleaner performance over time, and greater comfort in close-contact use.
Muscovy down is a by-product of the poultry industry, ensuring nothing is wasted.
Certified under the Responsible Down Standard (RDS). This guarantees ethical treatment, traceability, and responsible sourcing practices.
