What is the primary purpose of the Fusalp Barsy Down Jacket?
The jacket is designed for cold, wet conditions, offering warmth and protection for both everyday urban use and outdoor mountain adventures.

How can I restore the down's loft after washing?
Tumble dry the jacket with three tennis balls to help re-distribute and fluff the down filling.
What should I do if the water repellency fades?
You can reactivate the water repellency by ironing the outer fabric at a maximum of 110°C without steam, using a towel for protection. Professional dry cleaning is also recommended.
Is the hood detachable?
No, the jacket features an attached hood for continuous protection against the elements.
What are the benefits of the oversized fit?

Does the jacket have a snow skirt?

Troubleshooting
Jacket loses loft after washing.
Ensure you tumble dry the jacket with 3 tennis balls to help re-fluff the down insulation. If tumble drying is not possible, iron the outer fabric gently (max 110°C, no steam, with towel protection) to reactivate water repellency and may help restore some loft.
Water repellency seems reduced.
The water-repellent finish can diminish over time. Reactivate it by ironing the outer fabric at a maximum of 110°C without steam, using a towel as a barrier. Professional dry cleaning also helps maintain this finish.
Zipper is difficult to move.
Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper. Gently try to move it. If it remains stiff, a small amount of wax or graphite can be applied to the teeth, but ensure the garment is clean first.
Jacket feels bulky or unevenly filled.
This can happen if the down has clumped during washing or drying. Follow the specific drying instructions carefully, using tennis balls to redistribute the filling. If the issue persists after drying, consider professional cleaning.
