FAQs

Is this jacket waterproof?

It features a water-repellent finish which sheds light precipitation, but it is not fully waterproof.

Does it come with a hood?

Yes, it includes a stowable hood that can be packed into the collar.

How should I wash the jacket?

Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle and tumble dry on low with dryer balls.

Is the fit true to size?

The jacket features a retro, boxy fit. If you prefer a more tailored look, you may want to consider sizing down.

What is the primary material?

The exterior shell is made from durable, high-quality Nylon.

Troubleshooting

Down feathers coming through the fabric

Small amounts of shedding are normal for down jackets. Do not pull the feathers; instead, push them back inside the jacket.

Jacket feels flat after washing

Tumble dry the jacket on low heat with clean dryer balls to restore the loft of the goose down.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent warmth-to-weight ratio
  • Durable, long-lasting construction
  • Packable, stowable hood for versatility
  • Classic design aesthetic

Cons

  • Boxy fit can be bulky for some users
  • Requires professional cleaning for down maintenance
  • Not intended for extreme high-intensity mountaineering

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because this is an insulated garment, care is essential for maintaining the down's loft. The jacket is machine washable; use a gentle cycle with cold water and a mild detergent specifically designed for down garments. It is highly recommended to tumble dry on low heat with tennis balls or dryer balls to help fluff the down back to its original state. Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners. When not in use, store the jacket in a cool, dry place and try to hang it up rather than leaving it compressed in a stuff sack for extended periods to ensure the longevity of the insulation.
