FAQs
What is the primary benefit of the 90/10 goose feather padding?
The 90/10 ratio means 90% down and 10% small feathers, providing excellent warmth and insulation with a high fill power, ensuring the jacket is lightweight yet very warm.
How do I know if the XXXXL size will fit me?
It is recommended to consult the specific size chart provided by EA7 for this jacket. Compare your own body measurements (chest, waist, length) to the chart to determine the best fit.
Is this jacket waterproof?
The jacket is made from technical polyamide fabric, which offers water resistance against light rain or snow. It is not fully waterproof and may not withstand heavy downpours.
How small does the jacket fold down?
The jacket folds into a compact size, suitable for easy storage in a backpack or travel bag. An accompanying bag is provided for this purpose.
Can I wear this jacket in very cold, sub-zero temperatures?
While the jacket offers significant warmth, for extreme sub-zero temperatures, it is recommended to layer it over or under other warm garments for enhanced insulation.
What material is the jacket made of?
The main fabric is 100% polyamide, the elastic trim is 77% polyamide and 23% elastane, and the padding consists of 90% white duck feathers.
How often should I wash the jacket?
Wash only when necessary to preserve the down's properties. Follow the specific care instructions for washing and drying to maintain its loft and insulation.
Troubleshooting
Jacket loses loft after washing
Ensure the jacket is completely dry and has been tumble dried on low heat with tennis balls or dryer balls to help break up clumps of down and restore loft.
Zipper is difficult to use
Check for any fabric caught in the zipper. Gently pull the fabric away and try zipping again. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or wax to the zipper teeth for smoother operation.
Down feathers are escaping through the fabric
This is normal for high-quality down products. If a few feathers escape, gently pull them back through from the inside rather than pulling them out. Excessive leakage may indicate a seam issue.
Jacket feels damp or loses insulation
The jacket may not be fully dry after washing. Ensure it is thoroughly tumble dried on low heat until all internal moisture has evaporated. Check care label for specific drying instructions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: This jacket requires no assembly. Simply unpack it from its packaging or travel bag.
Compatibility: This is an apparel item, designed for adult males. Its sizing is generic (XXXXL), so it's recommended to consult a size chart before purchase to ensure the best fit.
Care Instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash cold (30°C) on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. It is crucial to wash the jacket with a few tennis balls or dryer balls to help redistribute and fluff the down filling during the wash.
- Rinsing: Ensure the jacket is thoroughly rinsed to remove all detergent.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a very low heat setting with tennis balls or dryer balls. This is the most critical step to restore the down's loft and ensure even distribution. Continue drying until completely dry, which may take several cycles.
- Storage: Store the jacket loosely or in its provided bag to prevent the down from being compressed for long periods.
- Spot Cleaning: For minor stains, use a damp cloth and mild soap, then rinse the area and air dry.
