FAQs
What is the primary material of this jacket?
The jacket is made from technical fabric with goose-down padding for warmth and comfort.
Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?
Yes, the goose-down padding provides excellent insulation and is suitable for cold conditions, especially when layered.
How do I clean the jacket?
Machine wash at 30°C on a delicate cycle with a mild detergent. Tumble dry on low heat with tennis balls to restore loft. Avoid dry cleaning or using fabric softeners.
Can I store this jacket compressed for a long time?
It is best to store the jacket loosely or in its dust bag. Prolonged compression can damage the down and reduce its insulating capabilities.
What does 'packable' mean in this context?
'Packable' means the jacket can be folded or compressed into a small size, often fitting into its own pocket or an included dust bag, making it easy to carry.
What are the washing precautions for down jackets?
Use a mild detergent suitable for down, wash on a delicate cycle, and tumble dry on low heat with dryer balls. Ensure the jacket is completely dry before use or storage.
Does this jacket have a hood?
This specific model, the Core Identity packable down jacket, features a stand collar. Some other EA7 jackets may include a hood, but this version does not.
Troubleshooting
Jacket has lost its loft
Place the jacket in a tumble dryer on a low heat setting with clean tennis balls or dryer balls. This agitation will help break up clumps of down and restore its volume.
Down feathers are escaping
Minor feather leakage is normal for down products. If significant leakage occurs, gently pull the feather back through the fabric from the inside. Ensure washing and drying instructions are followed precisely.
Jacket appears less warm than usual
The down may have become compressed or lost its loft. Follow the re-fluffing instructions using a tumble dryer. Ensure the jacket is completely dry after washing, as residual moisture can impact warmth.

Care Instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash at a maximum of 30°C (86°F) on a delicate cycle. Use a mild detergent specifically designed for down or technical fabrics.
