goose down

Soft pillow filling

Goose down is the soft, fluffy undercoating beneath the outer feathers of geese, prized for its exceptional insulation and lightness.

Used as filling for jackets, comforters, sleeping bags, and pillows: a goose down duvet, a puffy goose down parka.

Down traps air efficiently, providing warmth without bulk.
