Feathers are in the same time soft and very good at maintaining heat, this is why they are widely used in high-class bedding, especially in pillows, blankets and mattresses. Feathers are also used as filling for winter clothing (such as quilted coats), and outdoor bedding (like sleeping bags). Goose and eider down are highly appreciated for their capacity to expand from a compressed state to trap large amounts of insulating air. Besides feather products hold their loft up to 3 times longer than synthetic alternatives and is very soft.
