FAQs

What makes the 'longue saison' fabric special?

Longue saison is an innovative nylon fabric developed by Moncler. It's designed to be lightweight while still providing excellent warmth and water repellency, making it ideal for transitional weather wear.

Is this jacket warm enough for very cold winters?

The Acorus jacket is designed for mid-season and milder winter days. For extremely cold conditions, it is best used as a mid-layer over warmer base layers or under a heavier outer shell.

How should I store the jacket when not in use?

You can fold or roll the jacket compactly. Store it in a dry place. Avoid storing it compressed for long periods, as this can affect the loft of the down filling.

What is the filling made of?

The jacket is filled with 90% down and 10% feather for optimal warmth and insulation. The detailing padding is made of 100% polyester.

Can I machine wash this jacket?

No, machine washing is not recommended. The care instructions specify hand washing only to maintain the integrity of the fabric and the down filling.

What are the size details for this specific product?

This guide specifically pertains to the Moncler Enfant Acorus Packable Down Jacket in Black, Size: 7-8 (UK youth sizing).

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels less puffy after washing.

Gently tumble dry on a low heat setting with a few clean tennis balls to help re-fluff the down filling. Ensure the jacket is completely dry before use.

Zipper is difficult to move.

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to free the fabric. You can also apply a small amount of graphite from a pencil or a tiny bit of wax to the zipper track to help it glide more smoothly.

Water repellency seems reduced.

The water-repellent treatment may diminish over time. Consider using a specialized DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray suitable for down jackets to restore its protective properties after washing and drying.
