Full details
The EA7 Core Identity Jacket in White (XXXXL) is designed for adult males seeking a stylish yet functional outerwear piece for colder weather. Its key benefit is the excellent warmth-to-weight ratio provided by its down and feather fill, combined with packability for easy transport. A potential caveat is that while it offers lightweight weather protection, it is not a heavy-duty waterproof garment. This jacket features a regular fit, a polyamide outer for durability, and a blend of 90% white duck down and 10% feather for insulation.

FAQs
What is the primary purpose of this jacket?
The EA7 Core Identity Jacket is designed to provide warmth and comfort in cool to cold weather, with the added benefit of being easily packable for convenience.
How warm is the jacket?
It features a high percentage of white duck down (90%) and feather (10%), offering significant warmth for its lightweight design, suitable for mild to cold conditions.
Is the jacket waterproof?
The jacket has a 100% polyamide outer fabric that provides lightweight weather protection, meaning it can handle light rain or snow but is not fully waterproof for heavy downpours.
How do I clean the jacket?
It is best to machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent and tumble dry on low heat with tennis balls to help maintain the down's loft. Always check the garment's care label for specific instructions.
Can this jacket be worn in very cold temperatures?
While it offers good warmth, for extremely cold or harsh winter conditions, it might be best used as a mid-layer under a more robust, waterproof outer shell.
What does 'packable' mean in this context?
Packable means the jacket can be folded or compressed into a small size, making it easy to carry in a bag or backpack when not in use.
What material is the jacket made of?
The outer fabric is 100% polyamide, and the filling is 90% white duck down and 10% feather.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels flat or lacks loft after washing
Ensure the jacket is completely dry. Run it through the tumble dryer on a low heat setting again, adding clean tennis balls or dryer balls to help break up clumps of down and restore loft.
Down feathers are leaking through the fabric
Minor leakage can occur with down products. If significant leakage is observed, check for any small tears or seam issues. Gently pull any protruding feathers back through from the inside rather than pulling them out from the outside.
Outer fabric feels stiff or less water-repellent
Consider using a specific down wash and a re-proofer for outerwear during the next wash cycle, following the product's instructions carefully.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup: As an apparel item, this jacket requires no technical setup. It is ready to wear straight out of the packaging.
Compatibility: This jacket is designed as outerwear for adult males. Its casual and sportswear style makes it compatible with a wide range of casual clothing, including jeans, trousers, and sportswear.
Care Instructions: To maintain the quality and loft of the down filling, always refer to the care label on the garment. Generally, down-filled items require gentle washing and specific drying methods:
- Washing: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. It is recommended to wash the jacket with a few clean tennis balls to help redistribute the down during the drying process.
- Rinsing: Ensure the jacket is thoroughly rinsed to remove all detergent residue.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting with clean tennis balls or dryer balls. This is crucial for restoring the loft and fluffiness of the down. It may take several cycles to dry completely.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Avoid storing in a compressed state for extended periods to preserve the down's insulating properties.
