FAQs

Is this jacket warm enough for winter?

This jacket is designed for mid-seasons and offers lightweight warmth. For very cold winter conditions, it is best used as a layering piece under a heavier coat.

How do I know if I've chosen the right size?

Refer to the brand's sizing chart for accurate measurements. The jacket is designed for a fitted silhouette, so consider if you prefer a tighter or slightly looser fit when selecting your size.

Can I wear this jacket in the rain?

The technical nylon offers some protection against light rain or drizzle. However, it is not a waterproof garment and is not intended for heavy precipitation.

What does 'ultralight' mean in this context?

Ultralight refers to the jacket's minimal weight, achieved through advanced materials and construction techniques, ensuring comfort and ease of movement without sacrificing warmth.

How long does it take to pack the jacket into its clutch?

With practice, the jacket can be compressed and packed into its dedicated clutch within a minute or two.

What is the difference between this and a full down coat?

This is a sleeveless down gilet, providing core warmth without restricting arm movement. A full down coat typically has sleeves and offers more comprehensive insulation for colder weather.

Are there other colors available?

Yes, this model is available in other colors such as Black and Beige, in addition to Pink.

Troubleshooting

Down filling clumping after washing/drying.

Ensure you tumble dry on low heat with clean tennis balls or dryer balls. Gently shake the jacket periodically during the drying cycle to help redistribute the down evenly.

Jacket losing its loft or puffiness.

This can happen over time or with improper storage. Try tumble drying on low heat with dryer balls to help re-fluff the down. Ensure it's not being stored compressed for extended periods.

Zipper is difficult to move.

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently pull the fabric away. If the zipper still sticks, apply a small amount of graphite pencil lead or wax to the teeth.

Minor snags or tears in the fabric.

For small snags, try to carefully pull the thread back through to the inside. For small tears, a fabric patch or repair kit designed for outerwear may be used. Professional repair is recommended for larger damages.

Care Instructions:

  • Washing: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with mild detergent. It is recommended to wash with a few tennis balls or dryer balls to help redistribute the down filling.

  • Spot Cleaning: For minor stains, use a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. For long-term storage, avoid compressing the jacket tightly to maintain the loft of the down.
