Troubleshooting
Down feathers poking through fabric

Coat appears flat after unpacking
Give the coat a firm shake and hang it in a ventilated area for a few hours to allow the down to regain its loft.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
As this is a down-filled garment, proper maintenance is vital to ensure long-term performance.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Avoid keeping it compressed in a bag for extended periods to maintain the down's loft.
- Cleaning: Always check the interior garment label. Due to the real down fill, professional cleaning is generally recommended to ensure the down does not clump.
- Layering: The regular fit is designed to accommodate standard layers like blouses or mid-weight sweaters.
- Weather: While the material provides protection against light wind and rain, it is not categorized as fully waterproof; ensure you have additional rain protection if expecting heavy precipitation.
