W's Dunfri Parka

What makes it special?
The idea behind Dunfri Parka originally came to us from a mountain guide that wanted a longer insulation jacket to bring in his backpack. To stay comfortable in general but also as a safety garment if he had to spend the night outside. An insulation jacket that covers not only the torso but also the hips makes a big difference in a survival situation. Most of us spend a limited amount of nights sitting around in mountain passes but the lightweight, wonderfully warm performance of Dunfri Parka will make you happy however you choose to spend your winters.

How does it work?
Women's Dunfri Parka is made with Spinner Ripstop, a very light and durable fabric and insulated with Primaloft® Gold, a cutting edge synthetic padding. Primaloft® Gold has a similar warmth-to-weight ratio as down, but performs much better in wet conditions. It packs down nicely in a stow pocket and has a wonderful soft feeling. Dunfri Parka is treated with a PFAS-free water repellency treatment. Both the fabric and the insulation is made from 100% recycled and recyclable polyester. We use synthetic padding not only for the performance benefits but also because we don’t believe birds should suffer for our comfort’s sake.

When should I use it?
Bring women's Dunfri Parka to stay warm on your ski touring or climbing expedition, pack it for your camping trip, or simply wear it to fight the cold on your way to work. The combination of clean, minimalist looks with cutting edge performance makes it a true chameleon, both in terms of functionality and style. It can be worn as a standalone piece or as an insulation garment under or over a shell jacket.

Please don’t throw this garment away when it’s worn out. The materials are fully circular and can be recycled for use in new products. Please return it to Houdini or a Houdini retailer that has a Houdini recycling unit.

Padded garments

Our padded garments are made with synthetic insulation from Primaloft. There are many advantages to a synthetic padding compared to down: You don't have to tumble dry the garment with balls to regain the shape, it dries faster and it doesn't smell when it's damp.

• Air clothes instead of washing to save water, energy and to make the garments last longer.
• Use a washing bag to protect your garments and to prevent fibers from leaking. When cleaning the bag and filter in the machine, make sure to wipe it clean and throw the lint in your trash can. Never rinse it in water since we don't want the fibers to end up in lakes or oceans.
• Machine wash cold.
• Use mild environmentally certified detergents and make sure to use the right dose.
• Avoid fabric softener. Besides being harmful for our environment, they have a negative impact on the garment performance, mainly moisture transportation and breathability.
• Hang dry. Just remember to introduce heat to the garment after washing to reactivate the water resistant surface of the outer fabric. Use a drying cabinet, dryer or iron. Make sure you monitor the heat so the garment does not melt.

Circular

The Circular label means that this product is made either from recycled and recyclable or renewable and biodegradable fibers. Most products in today's society are made in a linear lifecycle, where earth's resources are extracted, used and then discarded. This is not working in the long run and comes at a great environmental impact. Instead, we want to close the loop and reuse the material we already have. But we need your help. When your Houdini garments are completely worn out, please return them to us through the recycling units we have in all our own stores and at many retailers.

Recycled

The Recycled label means that this garment contains at least 50% recycled fibers (often more, see product description). The source is either recycled clothes or other sources like PET bottles. We mainly use recycled polyester, which has many benefits. It reduces both CO2 emissions and water use compared to virgin polyester. How much depends on the type of recycling. One of our suppliers show 32% less CO2 emissions and 94% less water use for mechanically recycled polyester. Besides the production impact, the major shift is using "waste" as raw material instead of crude oil.

Recyclable

The Recyclable label means that the raw material in this product can be used for new products, instead of becoming waste. Our goal is that by 2030, we will take no raw material to our products from the earth's crust. Circular products, made from reycled and recyclable materials are a real game changer, but we need your help for the system to work. When your Houdini garments are completely worn out, please return them to us. We have recycle units in all of our own stores and at many retailers.

Bluesign®

The Bluesign® Label means that the production is vetted by a third party to eliminate any harmful chemicals or substances right from the beginning of the production process. This benefits both people, animals and our entire planet.
