Consumer Contract Regulations (CCR)

What are the Consumer Contract Regulations?

Under the "Consumer Contract Regulations, you have the right to cancel an order for goods made at a distance. These rights start from the moment you place your order and ends 14 days from the day you receive your goods.

Your right to cancel

Your right to cancel an order for goods starts the moment you place your order and ends 14 days from the day you receive your goods.

This 14 day period is the time you have to decide whether to cancel, you then have a further 14 days to actually send the goods back.

Your Right to a Refund under CCR

You may get a refund within 14 days of either, the trader getting the goods back, or you providing evidence of having returned the goods (for example, a proof of postage receipt from the post office), whichever is the sooner.

A deduction can be made if the value of the goods has been reduced as a result of you handling the goods more than was necessary. The extent to which you can handle the goods is the same as it would be if you were assessing them in a shop.

Refunding the cost of delivery

The trader has to refund the basic delivery cost of getting the goods to you in the first place, so if you opted for enhanced service e.g. guaranteed next day, it only has to refund the basic cost.

Exemptions

There are some circumstances where the Consumer Contracts Regulations does not give you a right to cancel. These include CDs, DVDs or software if you've broken the seal on the wrapping, perishable items and tailor-made or personalised items. They also include goods with a seal for health protection and hygiene reasons that have been broken or tampered with, e.g. Climbing Equipment and PPE.

My goods are broken

If you feel that your item is defective/broken/faulty and it is still under warranty, please contact our Customer Support team([email protected])with as much information as possible with regards to the fault, including photos if applicable.

We want to reduce our impact on the environment as much as possible, the first step for this is reducing our waste. Therefore, please note that we will always offer a professional repair in the first instance; if the product can be repaired.

This may involve your product being sent back to our suppliers or to a professional repair company. Please note that due tovaried procedures, warranty claims and repairs can take between 2 and 4 weeks to be concluded

Fjallraven Men's Expedition Down Lite Jacket Black Edition Black

Season:AW26

Brand:Fjallraven

Code:F12500209-550-550

What is the Expedition Down Lite Jacket Black Edition?

It's a black, limited-edition, lighter-weight version of Fjallraven's iconic Expedition Down Jacket, one of the warmest jackets in existence, designed for use in extremely cold environments.

This lighter-weight version is slightly shorter and filled with 35% less down, making it a more wearable piece for everyday life in milder winter climates, whilst still remaining an incredibly warm down jacket. Other than that, it's pretty much the same well-made, robust jacket as the original, which has largely been unchanged since 1974.

Materials & Technology

700 Fill Power Goose Down Insulation

The Expedition Down Lite Jacket's impressive warmth comes from the 415g of ethically sourced, 700 fill power goose down. All of the down is distributed evenly throughout a single layer of stitch-through channels, to help eliminate any cold spots in the jacket.

Despite down's incredible warmth to weight ratio, it doesn't like being compressed, therefore Fjallraven has used a synthetic insulation over the shoulders; this prevents heat loss due to the insulation being compressed by rucksack straps or becoming damp from heavy snowfall.

What Does 700 Fill Power Mean?

Fill power measures the warmth and efficiency of the down, alongside its ability to loft/fluff up. A rating of 700 fill power means that 1oz of this down fills 700 cubic inches of space when fully lofted. For a more detailed explanation, you can check out our YouTube video on fill power by clicking here.

Ethically Sourced Down

Due to their extensive experience in the outdoor industry, Fjallraven has established a responsible production process where 100% of the down used is traceable. The Fjallraven' Down Promise' is considered in the manufacturing process of every down product, ensuring that down taken from birds has been gathered ethically and is of high quality. Fjallraven's down is collected as a bi-product from the food industry, helping to reduce waste from such a large industry, and never comes from birds that have been treated cruelly (eg. being force-fed or live plucked).

Synthetic Shoulder Reinforcements

Fjallraven has used synthetic insulation across the shoulders for added durability and longevity of the insulation in high-wear areas. Unlike down, synthetic insulation is less affected by moisture and compression, helping it to maintain warmth beneath backpack straps, where down can become damaged or lose loft performance over time under repeated pressure.

Hardwearing Recycled Polyamide Outer

Surrounding the insulation and providing a barrier against the elements is a tough, hardwearing nylon outer fabric. You'll most likely never encounter rain when wearing this jacket, however, snow and wind are both repelled by this fabric thanks to its PFAS-Free DWR (durable water repellent) coating. However, please note, this does not make the fabric waterproof.

Features and Functionality

Insulated Adjustable Hood

An insulated, adjustable hood with Fjallraven's chunky drawcords and contrasting tab adjustment delivers warmth and protection in windy and exposed conditions. The drawcords' chunky nature makes them much easier to use when wearing gloves, allowing you to easily cinch the hood in quickly when the winds pick up or temperatures suddenly drop.

Reinforced Shoulders

Fjallraven has used synthetic padding reinforcements over shoulders for added durability and resistance to moisture and pressure, helping the insulation to withstand a lifetime of use with a backpack.

Two-Way Front Zip

A two-way front zip allows ventilation without having to undo the whole jacket, also making it easier to fit and adjust a harness underneath so you don't have to completely remove the jacket when winter belaying. The zip has a protective flap over the top that can be fastened with buttons to enhance weather resistance at the entry.

Practical Storage

For storage, there are two large top-opening pockets that have entry from the side as well. A zipped inner storage pocket provides a safer place to store smaller valuables.

Adjustable Fit

To adapt the fit and seal out the elements, there are drawcord adjustments on the hem and elasticated cuffs with button adjustment which are handy if you're wearing thick mitts or gloves.

Key Features

  • A lighter version of the iconic Expedition Down Jacket suitable for milder winter climates
  • Lightly padded with high-quality, ethically produced down distributed in stitch-through channels
  • Outer fabric in hardwearing polyamide with PFC-free DWR
  • Shoulders reinforced with synthetic padding to resist moisture
  • Protective hood with signature yellow drawcord and leather tab adjustment
  • Two-way front zipper plus a protective flap with buttons
  • Two large top-loaded pockets with flaps, and extra openings from the sides
  • Zippered inside storage pocket
  • Drawcord adjustments at hem and waist

How does the Expedition Down Lite Jacket fit?

The Expedition Down Lite Jacket uses the same design principles as the original Expedition Jacket but with a 16cm shorter length and 35% reduction of insulation volume, to create a more versatile fit for everyday winter wear. Its regular fit provides ample room for comfortable layering in colder conditions, whilst still sitting close enough to the body for optimal thermal efficiency.

What is the Expedition Down Lite Jacket best for?

  • Everyday winter wear throughout the coldest months
  • Cold-weather walking
  • Travel in winter conditions
  • Casual outdoor use in snowy, icy conditions
  • General cold-climate wear
  • Users wanting Expedition-level warmth in a more versatile package
