What sources for down do you know of? Looking for 700-900 fill. I see some at T-H, but was hoping for another source. Thanks.
Jul 14, 2011 at 7:39 am #1759211I know HammockGear.com sells down at 6.50 an oz, which is a pretty good price. 800+ fill. I think there is a place that will sell for 5.50 an oz somewhere, but I can't remember the site.
This is the link to hammockgear

Same priceJul 26, 2011 at 12:20 pm #1763221Down-lite sells 800, 700, and 600 FP down by the pound:

Feathertex is the cheapest I have seen online, but they have no stock until this fall.
Feather Industries, in Toronto, sells in quantities as small as two pounds at a premium to their normal minimum of twenty pounds. They were very nice in pointing me to down-lite (above), which was more economical for an order of one pound. Feather Industries also suggested checking with Pacific Coast Feather, and United Feather & Down. I did not call those last two.
