FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
The jacket features a technical shell that offers some protection, but it is not classified as waterproof. It is best used as an insulating layer.
How do I pack the jacket?
While many packable jackets come with a dedicated pouch, you can typically fold it into its own pocket or compress it tightly into a small space due to the high-quality down fill.
Is it suitable for heavy winter snow?
It is designed for thermal insulation in cold weather but is not a heavy-duty parka; it is best suited for layering in moderate cold or dry conditions.
Does it have internal pockets?
The jacket focuses on a streamlined silhouette, usually featuring standard external zip pockets for your essentials.
How should I choose the right size?
The jacket has a regular, athletic fit. If you plan to wear it over bulky hoodies, you might consider sizing up, otherwise, your standard size should provide a sleek fit.
Troubleshooting
Feathers starting to poke through the fabric
This is common with down garments; gently pull the feather back into the jacket from the inside if possible, or use your fingers to massage the fabric to close the gap.
Jacket feels flat after washing
Tumble dry on low heat with clean tennis balls for an extended cycle to redistribute the down and restore loft.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This jacket requires no formal setup; it is ready to wear immediately. To ensure longevity, always follow the care label instructions. Because it contains down, it is recommended to wash it on a delicate cycle with a mild detergent specifically formulated for down products to prevent the feathers from clumping. After washing, tumble dry on a low heat setting, ideally with tennis balls or dryer balls to help fluff the down back to its original loft. Store the jacket in a cool, dry place and avoid hanging it in direct sunlight for extended periods to maintain the integrity of the technical shell fabric.
