Big Agnes Women's Bearsley Jacket

Big Agnes Bearsley Women's Hooded Down Jacket

An ultralight, ultra-packable women's down jacket built for minimalists who want serious warmth without meaningful weight or bulk in their pack. The Bearsley's 850-fill DownTek PFC-free down, Signature Diamond Quilting, and ultralight materials combine for a 7-ounce jacket that disappears in its own pocket and delivers all-day warmth as a mid-layer or a standalone outer on bluebird winter days.

Why We Carry It
It's the down jacket we recommend for active women who want a premium fill, packable warmth layer light enough to live in a pack year-round without ever feeling like dead weight on the approach.

Highlights

• 850-fill power DownTek PFC-free water-repellent down — Big Agnes's premium fill power with a water-repellent treatment that helps down maintain loft in damp conditions without the environmental concerns of traditional PFC-based treatments. More warmth per ounce than lower fill power alternatives with the moisture resistance to back it up.
• Signature Diamond Quilting — A quilting pattern that allows down to expand to its fullest loft while using less stitching than traditional quilt lines for a higher warmth-to-weight ratio and fewer cold spots at seam lines. A construction detail that maximizes the performance of every ounce of fill.
• 7-ounce total weight with 3-ounce fill — An exceptionally light jacket that justifies year-round pack residency without evaluating whether it's worth carrying on a given day. The weight that makes the Bearsley a no-decision addition to any kit.
• Athletic fit for thermal efficiency — Fits close to the body without restriction for maximum thermal efficiency and easy layering under a shell without bunching or adding bulk at the shoulders.
• Minimalist hood and cuffs with self-adjusting elastic — A lightweight, close-fitting hood and cuff construction that seals in warmth without the bulk of a more structured hood system. Self-adjusting elastic keeps everything in place through active use without drawcords to manage.
• Discreet hem adjustment drawcord — Seals in body heat at the hem without external hardware that catches on gear or layers. Clean, minimal adjustment for variable conditions.
• Right hand pocket doubles as stuff sack — Packs into its own right hand pocket for compact storage in a pack without a separate stuff sack to lose. Easy to deploy and easy to stow.
• Two interior drop-in pockets plus two exterior hand pockets — Organized storage for valuables and essentials inside and out with YKK Vislon Slim zippers and knotted pulls for reliable, glove-friendly operation without adding unnecessary weight.
• Sustainably sourced materials without intentionally added PFAS — A clean material standard across shell, lining, and down treatment that reduces environmental impact without compromising warmth or weather resistance.

Best For

Active women, hikers, skiers, and outdoor enthusiasts who want an ultralight, premium fill down jacket for stop-and-go cold weather sports, bluebird winter days, and any situation where serious warmth in a minimal package is the priority. A strong year-round pack piece for anyone who wants a jacket light enough to always have along without thinking about it.
