Get Down

Gill’s new Hydrophobe jacket and vest feature a water-repellent outer shell packed with water-resistant duck down. Not only are they warm and windproof, they’ll also stand up to spray. Gill says these are the first down jackets to be designed specifically for the marine market. They’re available in charcoal and sizes XS through XXL for men, and in pewter, sizes 6 through 14, for women. 

Jacket $179, vest $139. Gill, gillna.com
