FAQs

Is the jacket waterproof?

No, it is treated with a durable water-repellent (DWR) finish which makes it water-resistant against light rain, but it is not intended for heavy rain.

What does RDS certified mean?

RDS stands for Responsible Down Standard. It ensures that the down used in the jacket comes from ducks or geese that have been treated ethically.

Can I pack this jacket for hiking?

Yes, its lightweight and packable design makes it an excellent addition to any hiking gear list for insulation during breaks or cooler temperatures.

How should I wash the jacket?

Use a mild, down-specific soap and a gentle cycle. Always use dryer balls in the tumble dryer to prevent the down from clumping.

Is the jacket suitable for extreme winter?

It provides great warmth for its weight, but for extreme cold, it is best used as a mid-layer under a heavier, windproof outer shell.

Troubleshooting

Down feathers are poking through the fabric

This is normal for down jackets. Gently pull the feather back into the jacket from the inside rather than pulling it out through the fabric hole.

Jacket feels flat after washing

Tumble dry the jacket on low heat with dryer balls to fluff the down. Ensure it is completely dry before removing it from the dryer.

Water is soaking into the fabric instead of beading

The DWR finish may have worn off. Apply a fabric-specific re-waterproofing spray to restore the water-repellent properties.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptionally lightweight for easy carrying
  • Easily packable design for travel convenience
  • Ethically sourced down (RDS certified)
  • DWR finish offers protection against light rain
  • Standing collar provides extra wind protection

Cons

  • DWR finish is not a full waterproof solution
  • Not suitable for heavy or prolonged wet conditions
  • Minimalist design lacks heavy-duty pockets or hood

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your jacket, always follow the specific care label instructions. Generally, the jacket should be washed using a detergent formulated for down products to preserve the integrity of the feathers. After washing, it is essential to tumble dry on a low heat setting with clean tennis balls or dryer balls to redistribute the down and restore its fluffiness. Store the jacket in a cool, dry place; while it is packable, it is better to hang it in your closet rather than keeping it compressed in its stuff sack for long periods. For sizing, the jacket is true to fit but works best when layered over a standard base layer.
