FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for winter?

This jacket is ideal for mild winter conditions or as a layering piece under a heavier coat in colder climates. Its lightweight design provides warmth but might not be sufficient as a standalone jacket in very harsh winter weather.

Can I machine wash this jacket?

Yes, you can machine wash it on a cold, gentle cycle. It's best to use a down-specific detergent and tumble dry on low heat with tennis balls to restore its fluffiness.

Is the jacket waterproof?

The jacket features a water-repellent finish, meaning it will protect you from light rain and drizzles. It is not fully waterproof and is not intended for heavy downpours.

What kind of pockets does it have?

The jacket has one interior patch pocket and one interior zip pocket for secure storage of your essentials.

What does 'recycled polyester' mean for me?

Using recycled polyester means the jacket is made from materials that have been reprocessed, often from plastic bottles. This contributes to reducing waste and the environmental impact of manufacturing new materials.

How should I store the jacket when not in use?

Store the jacket loosely in a cool, dry place. Avoid compressing it for long periods, as this can damage the down filling and reduce its insulating properties. Hanging it on the locker loop is a good option.

Troubleshooting

Jacket appears flat or clumpy after washing.

Tumble dry on low heat with 2-3 clean tennis balls or dryer balls. This helps break up down clumps and restore the jacket's loft and warmth.

Water repellency seems to diminish over time.

The water-repellent finish can wear off with extended use and washing. You can refresh it by applying a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray specifically designed for outerwear after washing and drying.

Small feathers are escaping through the fabric.

It's normal for a small number of feathers to escape from down products, especially when new. Gently pull them back into the jacket from the inside if possible, rather than pulling them out, to avoid enlarging the hole.

This jacket requires no setup and is ready to wear straight out of the packaging. It pairs effortlessly with a wide range of casual and smart-casual attire, from jeans and a t-shirt to chinos and a button-down shirt. For proper care, machine wash cold on a gentle cycle. It is recommended to use a mild, down-specific detergent. Tumble dry on a low heat with a few clean tennis balls to help redistribute and fluff the down filling, preventing clumping and restoring its loft. Do not bleach or iron. Always refer to the care label inside the jacket for specific instructions to ensure its longevity and performance.
