Cotton clothes and down jackets are common clothes to keep warm in winter. What's the difference between them? Mainly reflected in the following points:


1. Filler: cotton is the filler of cotton clothes, and duck or goose is the filler of down jacket.
The padding of cotton clothes is natural cotton, which is relatively hygroscopic and breathable, but not fluffy enough;
The filling of down jacket is usually the down of duck or goose, which is fluffy and soft, and it is more comfortable to wear.


2. Thermal insulation: generally, the thermal insulation of down jacket is better than that of cotton jacket.
The thermal insulation of animal down is better than that of plant fiber, so the thermal insulation of down jacket is better than that of cotton jacket. Accordingly, the price of down jacket is generally much higher than that of cotton jacket.


3. Thickness and weight: under the same thermal insulation, the down jacket is lighter and thinner than the cotton jacket.
With the same thermal insulation, the down jacket is light and thin, while the cotton jacket is relatively thick and heavy. The effect of wearing it on the body is that the down jacket looks close and beautiful, while the cotton jacket is relatively bulky and spacious.


4. Washability: cotton clothes tend to agglomerate after washing, and the thermal insulation becomes poor. The down jacket can be restored after washing and drying, and the thermal insulation is good.


Cotton will become harder and harder after washing, and it is easy to clump. Cotton clothes can't escape this disadvantage, so cotton clothes are not very washable, and the warmth retention will become worse if washed frequently. After washing the down jacket, just pat it for a while after drying, and the down inside will become fluffy and soft again, and the thermal insulation will not be easy to deteriorate.
