Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of the Aurora Down Jacket, proper maintenance of the technical fabric is essential. Always check the internal care label before washing; generally, use a gentle cycle with a detergent specifically designed for technical or down-filled outerwear to maintain the jacket's waterproof properties and insulation loft. Avoid harsh fabric softeners or bleaching agents. For the hood, remove the faux fur trim before laundering to preserve its texture. When storing the jacket, ensure it is completely dry and hung in a well-ventilated space; avoid compressing the garment for extended periods, as this can degrade the insulating quality of the fill. If the waterproof efficacy begins to diminish over time, a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) re-proofing spray can be applied to the outer nylon shell.
