Black Diamond Deploy Down 1.0 Hoody - Men

This is the kind of insulating layer that makes sense when you're paying attention to every gram and every bit of pack space. At just 304 g, the Deploy Down 1.0 provides a useful amount of warmth while packing down remarkably small. We especially like it as a backup layer for ski touring, for cool belays and transitions, or tucked into a climbing pack when the forecast calls for changing temperatures. 

Consider Another Option If

You need a warmer insulating layer for long periods of inactivity or a more durable outer layer for regular contact with rock, trees or rough surfaces. The Deploy's lightweight fabrics prioritize low weight and packability over abrasion resistance.

How warm is the Black Diamond Deploy Down 1.0 Hoody?

With 110 g of 800-fill goose down, it offers an excellent warmth-to-weight ratio, but it is designed primarily as a lightweight mountain insulation piece rather than a heavyweight belay jacket.

Is the Deploy Down 1.0 Hoody good for ski touring?

Yes. Its low weight, small packed size and efficient down insulation make it particularly useful as an insulating layer carried in your pack for transitions, breaks and colder conditions.

Can it be worn under a shell?

Yes. Black Diamond specifically designed the Deploy Down 1.0 to work as a lightweight insulating layer, including underneath a shell for ice climbing and alpine use.

Does it pack into its own pocket?

Yes. The jacket stuffs into its own pocket and includes a carabiner clip loop, making it easy to carry on a harness or in a small pack.
