FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
The jacket is designed for warmth and features some resistance to the elements, but it is not fully waterproof. It is best suited for dry, cold weather.
Can I wear this under a shell jacket?
Yes, because of its lightweight and non-bulky profile, it acts as an excellent insulating mid-layer underneath a waterproof shell.
How do I pack the jacket?
The jacket is designed to fold or roll into its included stuff sack. Ensure the jacket is dry before packing it away for long periods.
Does it have an internal pocket?
The model features multiple lower zipped pockets for external secure storage.
How should I wash it?
Use a specialized down cleaner on a gentle, cold wash cycle. Always ensure it is thoroughly dried to prevent clumping of the insulation.
Troubleshooting
Feathers leaking through the fabric
Small amounts of shedding are normal for down jackets. Avoid pulling the feathers out; instead, gently pull the feather back into the jacket from the opposite side and massage the fabric to close the hole.
Jacket feels flat or lacks warmth
The down may be compressed. Tumble dry the jacket on a low heat setting with a clean tennis ball or dryer ball to help redistribute the down and restore its loft.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your DLX Thompson Down Jacket in optimal condition, always store it hanging in a cool, dry place when not in use for extended periods; long-term compression in the stuff sack can reduce the down's insulating loft. When cleaning, refer to the garment tag for specific instructions, typically involving a gentle machine wash on a delicate cycle with a detergent formulated for down. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can coat the down and decrease its thermal efficiency. The jacket is designed for standard layering, fitting well over base layers or light sweaters.
