FAQs

Is the jacket waterproof?

The jacket is water-resistant, meaning it can repel light rain and snow, but it is not fully waterproof.

How do I wash the jacket?

Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with a down-specific detergent. Tumble dry low with tennis balls.

What kind of fabric is the outer shell made of?

The outer shell is made of Polyamide Ripstop fabric with a Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish.

What are the adjustable features?

The jacket features an adjustable hood, adjustable cuffs (Velcro), and an adjustable hem (shockcord).

What is DWR?

DWR stands for Durable Water Repellent. It is a finish applied to the fabric to make it water-resistant.

Troubleshooting

Down is clumping or losing loft.

Wash the jacket using a down-specific detergent and tumble dry it on low heat with clean tennis balls. This will help to redistribute the down and restore its loft.

Water is penetrating the jacket.

If the jacket is no longer repelling water, reapply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for application.

Zippers are sticking.

Apply a zipper lubricant to the zippers to ensure smooth operation.
