FAQs
Is this parka machine washable?
Yes, you can machine wash the Eris Parka on a gentle cycle, but always follow the specific care instructions on the interior label.
Does the hood detach?
No, the hood is integrated into the design to ensure maximum weather protection, but it is fully adjustable for a snug fit.
Can I wear this in sub-zero temperatures?
With 120 g/m² of insulation, it is suitable for moderate winter conditions. For extreme sub-zero temperatures, layering a fleece or wool sweater underneath is recommended.
What is the benefit of the A-shape silhouette?
The A-shape provides a flattering aesthetic while allowing for more room at the hips, which prevents the jacket from restricting your stride.
How do I use the ventilation button?
If you are too warm, you can unbutton the main zipper and use the inner placket button to keep the jacket securely closed while allowing air to circulate.
Troubleshooting
Water is no longer beading on the surface of the jacket.
The DWR coating has likely worn off. Wash the jacket with a technical cleaner and apply a spray-on waterproofing treatment.
Feeling damp inside despite the jacket being waterproof.
This is likely condensation buildup from intense activity. Ensure the ventilation button on the placket is used, or unzip the jacket slightly to increase airflow.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your Didriksons Eris Parka in optimal condition, adhere to the following maintenance guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle at a low temperature. Always close all zippers and Velcro straps before washing to prevent damage to the fabric.
- Detergent: Use a technical detergent suitable for waterproof garments. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can clog the pores of the breathable membrane.
- Re-proofing: Over time, the outer water-repellent finish (DWR) may wear off. If you notice water no longer beads on the surface, apply a DWR-restoring spray and tumble dry on a low setting if the care label permits.
- Storage: Hang the parka in a cool, dry place. Avoid compressing the insulation under heavy items to maintain its loft and warmth-retention capabilities.
