The North Face Nova is filled with 800+ fill down, were this bag is 600 fill.Yes, 800 fill is much more expensive than 600 in that it is a higher quality down. Containing more fully developed down plumules and a higher percentage of pure down, 800 will be more compressible than 600. In general a 800 fill will also outlast a 600, maintaining its loft for longer.
