Anyone used the UP insulation?

Anyone tried that new UP insulation, I saw it the other day on Dutchwear gear. Website says it had the fp of 650 down. Just wondering how it compares to apex or other synthetics.

Not yet, but I will next month. I have a quilt made with it by Cedar Ridge Outdoors. Also, CRO has some youtube videos comparing their quilts that have UP!, Apex, or down.

I ordered some to make a sleeping bag for my dog when camping. I think I'm going to actually order some to make a puffy jacket/pants in the future. I haven't used apex or any other synthetic insulations but the 6 ounces I ordered packs down smaller than my synthetic puffy jacket.
