From Decathlon's website:
"100% down and feather filling"
"Filled with 85% down/ 15% feathers (95 g in size L)"
So it's not 100% down?
EDIT.
I see their point - it's not like the cheaper ones that have holofil sleeves and a down/feather torso.
Further reading of the Decathlon page proves more entertaining:
"Our feathers come from Chinese ducks reared for their meat; we remove their feathers after slaughter. We hold the death certificates for these ducks."
I guess everyone has to have a hobby, but collecting ducks' death certificates? The rest of the world just collect stamps n stuff. The French are weird.
"Care instructions: Wash inside out. Wash alone."
There are some things I prefer to wash alone - but I tend not to put them in the washing machine!

It's because less reputable suppliers gather feathers and down by ripping them off the birds while still alive, which sounds horrific. Decathlon at least are a reputable company.
