Taion

Taion is a Japanese outerwear brand whose name translates to "body temperature," and that is exactly what they have been perfecting since launching in 2016. Specialising in lightweight down, Taion uses a blend of mature waterfowl down and feathers with water-repellent nylon shells to create jackets that weigh as little as 200 grams while delivering exceptional warmth. Their signature geometric square down construction is engineered to compress and retain heat as efficiently as possible. Designed with layering in mind, every piece is ultralight and packable without compromising on insulation. At Wally, our Taion NZ collection includes down jackets and vests built for New Zealand's changeable conditions. Shop Taion in store at Takapuna or online with free delivery over $80.

Taion down jackets and vests

Designed with layering in mind, the down pieces are the reason most people find Taion. The Military V-Neck W-Zip Down Vest comes in two cuts and the jacket versions sit alongside it, from the V-neck through to the MA-1 bomber shape. The W-Zip Down Hoodie has been the pick of the heavier pieces on sales.
