About Rongduo

Goose down is bigger and fuller than duck down, because the growth period of goose is at least 100 days to maturity, while that of duck is only 40 days. The longer the growth cycle, the longer the down, the bigger and more full.

About bulk

Small rhombus nodes are evenly distributed on the barbs of goose down, while the rhomboid nodes on duck down are larger and concentrated at the ends of small barbs, so goose down can produce a larger distance space and better fluffiness. Warmth is stronger.
