I am allergic to down, but have seen some jackets with synthetic insulation on the High Street. Any chance of you making some synthetic alternatives to your Filo?
Received my chilli red filo jacket today, incredibly fast delivery. Love it, love it, so warm and cosy and loads cheaper than the alternative brand which i was going to buy. Will probably buy another in a different colour too!!
this blog is more for our customers to comment on our products rather answering questions, as we dont all ways check it day in day out, like our emails.
However, i can say that we are working very hard to get them in before Christmas.
Cheers

Hello, could you tell me if you will have the Filo jacket in stock soon!
Many thanks Jonathan.
The Filos can be packed down pretty small - Col has managed to get a men’s XXL Filo into a small Airlok XT. We don’t sell them with stuff sacks as we have a range of bags that they can be stuffed into - the Vortex mesh bags, the Airlok XT dry bags and the Apollo II stuff sacks.
Jackets look great - can someone advise if the Filo can be packed down like comparable jackets, and does it come with a stuff sack? Thanks
I just received my Alpkit Filo Jacket, and am very impressed! The cut, features and style of the jacket are all on par with several of the more expensive down jackets down jackets on the market. As usual, the delivery time was super quick.
My only slight constructive criticism would be to fit the zippers with the Alpkit Zip Grips, as I think it would really compliment the overall appearance of such a quality piece of kit, rather than coloured tags which mine came with.
Ordered an XL Filet and XXL Filo late on Thursday, received them first thing Saturday morning.
Worn separately they are fantastic, lightweight but toasty. Worn together...well I can’t wait for the first snow of the year, I’ll be the one with the warm glow and smug look.
I ordered a chilli ladies jacket and received it within a couple of days. I am so pleased with it and think it could possibly be the best £70 I have spent for a long time. I can’t wait for the weather to get colder so I can try it out properly, rather than just around the house! Thanks

Well..... really good down, is far less allergenic than poor quality down (I used to suffer from this to), but we will at some point do a synthetic jacket.
