The Zissou has been the darling of the outdoor industry press in 2012. The bag is one of the first of its kind to use chemically coated hydrophobic down that, according to Sierra Designs, stays drier longer, lofts better when wet, and dries faster than untreated down. Our testing- we slept out in the rain and in many wet environments- confirms that this is true, though the difference is much less significant than we anticipated. In our opinion, current DriDown is not yet the perfect hybrid of down and synthetic insulation; when wet it retains slightly more loft than traditional down, but it’s not as warm as synthetic insulation when wet.
