FAQs
Is the jacket fully waterproof?
No, the jacket features a water-resistant finish, which is ideal for light showers, but it is not a replacement for a hardshell waterproof jacket in heavy rain.
What does 650 fill mean?
It refers to the quality and loft of the down; 650 fill provides an excellent balance of lightweight insulation and warmth.
How do I store the jacket?
Store it hanging in a dry, well-ventilated area to maintain the integrity of the down.
Can I wear this in extreme cold?
It is designed for versatile insulation. In extreme conditions, it is best used as a mid-layer under a protective shell.
Does the hood adjust?
The jacket includes an integrated hood designed to provide a snug fit to keep out draughts.
Troubleshooting
Down appears clumped after washing
Tumble dry the jacket on low heat with dryer balls or clean tennis balls to fluff the feathers.
Small feathers poking through the fabric
This is normal for high-fill down jackets; do not pull the feathers. Gently massage the fabric to pull the feather back into the baffle.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your jacket lasts, always wash it using a specialized down cleaner on a gentle cycle. Once washed, tumble dry on a low setting with clean tennis balls or dryer balls to help redistribute the down and restore the loft. When not in use, avoid storing the jacket compressed in a stuff sack for extended periods; hanging it in a cool, dry place preserves the insulation's longevity. Ensure the main zip is fully closed before washing to prevent snagging.
