Care Instructions
To ensure the longevity and performance of your Belstaff Circuit Jacket, follow these care guidelines carefully:
- Preparation: Before washing, ensure all zippers are closed and press-studs are fastened.
- Washing: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle using a mild, down-specific detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, bleach, or harsh chemicals as these can damage the down and fabric.
- Rinsing: Run an extra rinse cycle to ensure all detergent is thoroughly removed.
- Drying: This is the most crucial step for down jackets.
- Tumble dry on low heat with a few clean tennis balls or dryer balls. These help to break up down clumps and restore loft, ensuring even distribution of insulation.
- Periodically remove the jacket from the dryer and manually fluff the down, ensuring no clumps remain. This process may take several hours.
- Ensure the jacket is completely dry before storing to prevent mildew and preserve down integrity. Even a slight dampness can cause issues.
- Do Not Iron: The polyamide shell should not be ironed.
- Storage: Store the jacket uncompressed in a cool, dry place. Avoid prolonged compression, as this can permanently reduce the down's loft and insulating capabilities.
