Gear of the Week | PYUA DULL Insulation jacket

Comfortable to wear, lightweight and sustainable

by Lorenzo Rieg 01/17/2021
PYUA has stood for sustainable outdoor clothing since it was founded 12 years ago. This is also the case with the "Dull" insulation jacket, which is not only light, warm and packable, but is also made from 100% recycled polyester. This applies to both the filling and the fabric. As the jacket can therefore be completely recycled again, it is a product made for the circular economy.

The soft material is immediately noticeable when unpacking the jacket. This is quite unusual for an outdoor jacket, but it is very comfortable to wear and doesn't rustle. Especially in combination with the inserts under the sleeves and the slightly stretchy material, the result is a really comfortable jacket that you won't want to take off and that looks good not only in the snow, but also on the couch at home.

The two pockets lined with soft fleece, which keep your hands nice and warm when you put them in and can also be closed with zippers to store smaller items safely in them, also go well with this.

The jacket has a simple look and cut and is designed to be worn under a hard shell. Of course, it also looks good on its own and offers great warmth, but it doesn't fully defy all the elements and is therefore more suitable for a city stroll than for the high mountains.

However, the close-fitting cut and soft material mean it fits very well under a hardshell or in the onion system. It also does not restrict freedom of movement and is less bulky. Two features also have a positive effect here, which to be honest irritated me briefly at first, namely the rather short sleeves for me (although I have this problem more often) and the fact that the jacket doesn't have a hood.

However, this makes it fit even better under a hardshell and also avoids the problem of having 2 or more hoods.

Of course, the jacket also warms very well. I would say that the thermal performance is within the expected range and is neither better nor worse than that of comparable jackets with other filling material.

Conclusion

Comfortable to wear, warm, packable, sustainable and stylish. There are many reasons to choose the PYUA Dull. In this respect, a clear recommendation from me, at least if you don't need or want a hood.
