Machine wash on a gentle cycle with a down-specific detergent. Tumble dry on low heat with dryer balls to restore loft. Always follow the care label instructions.

Use a down-specific detergent that is designed to clean down and maintain its loft. Avoid detergents with fabric softeners or bleach.

Can I iron the jacket?

No, do not iron the jacket. The heat can damage the fabric and insulation. If needed, you can use a steamer on a low setting.

How should I store the jacket during the off-season?

Store the jacket in a dry, well-ventilated place. Avoid compressing it for long periods. A breathable storage bag is ideal.

What type of insulation is used in the jacket?

Is the jacket suitable for extreme cold?

Troubleshooting

Water is penetrating the jacket.

Check for any damage to the outer fabric, such as tears or punctures. If there are any, repair them. Re-treat the jacket with a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) product to restore its water resistance.

Loss of loft in the down insulation.

Wash and dry the jacket according to the care instructions. Ensure the down is completely dry to restore its loft. If the issue persists, the down may be damaged and professional repair might be needed.

Zippers are sticking.

Lubricate the zippers with a zipper lubricant or a bar of soap. Gently work the zipper up and down to distribute the lubricant.
