Featured in Switchback Travel's Best Down Jackets Guide

"Plopping squarely in the lightweight category, this cozy down jacket boasts an incredible warmth-to-weight ratio, phenomenal fit, and relatively affordable price tag to boot. The synthetic insulation in moisture-prone areas (similar to ___'s pricier ___) has made this one of our favorite insulators for fast-and-light climbing trips and mountaineering objectives, but it’s also sleek enough to wear casually."

This just may be the ideal puffy for many backpackers.

In fact, it’s tempting to call the Accelerator the Goldilocks of down jackets, because it seems so ideal for camping in the mountains in the typically cool weather of summer and fall, or spring and fall in the desert Southwest: It’s not so thin and lightweight that it’s never quite warm enough for many people, but also not overly warm, which would make it unnecessarily heavier and bulkier.

Featured in "BEST DOWN JACKETS"

 "...the Himali Accelerator is a solid lightweight down jacket at a competitive price, and performs especially well for technical, high aerobic pursuits."

Dirtbag Dreams - Proview

 "You will find yourself carrying this jacket every day you think the weather might be even just a little bit unfavorable."

Best Performance Down Jacket

"The Himali Accelerator Hooded Down Jacket is a slim-fitting, versatile down jacket made from high quality materials. It is light, durable, and looks awesome on the wearer. It has an impressive warmth-to-weight ratio, making it an excellent piece of insulation."

High-End Puffy With All the Features

"HIMALI nailed it: the Accelerator feels light, trim and ready to move. It's warm and functional enough for adventure, but sleek enough to wear out in town. That's pretty much the combo everyone is looking for. "

Description

The Accelerator Down Jacket is perfect for an array of activities in the mountains - think demanding mountaineering expeditions, summer backpacking trips, and ski days with friends. The premium materials & athletic design create a lightweight down jacket that is made to perform. 


The Pertex® Quantum ripstop nylon shell keeps the wind out and holds ~4oz of ethically sourced 850 Fill-Power, water resistant down for lightweight warmth. A PFAS-Free water-repellent coating on the shell fabric, combined with water-expanding thread, acts as the first defense against precipitation, while the PFAS-Free water-resistant down prevents internal moisture buildup. 


Synthetic insulation mapping in high-moisture areas (underarms and mouth guard) keeps you warm during high-heart-rate activities.


The athletic fit is designed to fit perfectly over a base layer (and potentially a whisper-thin mid layer). This takes advantage of down’s insulating properties by reducing the need to heat unnecessary dead space and by reducing updrafts.


Hem and hood drawcords prevent unwanted airflow and work to keep you warm. 


An integrated stuff sack in the left-hand pocket allows the entire jacket to easily compress to a size similar to a standard 32 oz Nalgene.


We use top-of-the line YKK zippers for all of our products. 

It’s athletic fit is designed to fit perfectly over a base layer (and potentially a whisper thin midlayer). This takes advantage of down’s insulating properties by reducing dead space between your body and the down. If you are looking to layer more than this underneath, we recommend sizing up.

 

**The design of this jacket was inspired by our Altocumulous Down Jacket**
