FAQs
What is the main advantage of this jacket?
The primary advantage is its excellent warmth-to-weight ratio due to the 90/10 goose down filling, combined with its ability to be easily packed into a small bag for portability.
Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?
This jacket is designed for warmth and is made with technical fabric that can handle light moisture or wind. For heavy rain, a waterproof outer layer would be recommended.
How do I wash the jacket to protect the down?
Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low heat with tennis balls to restore down loft.
Does the hood come off?
No, the hood is a fixed part of the jacket's design and cannot be detached.
What material is the jacket made of?
The jacket is made from 100% polyamide (nylon) with a 90/10 goose down padding.
Can I wear this jacket in very cold winter conditions?
It provides good warmth for its weight, making it suitable for mild to cool conditions. For extreme cold, it is best used as a layer underneath a heavier, insulated winter coat.
What does 'packable' mean in this context?
It means the jacket can be folded or compressed down into a very small size, often into its own pocket or an included pouch, making it easy to carry when not in use.
Troubleshooting
Jacket loft seems reduced after washing.
Place the jacket in a tumble dryer on low heat with clean tennis balls or dryer balls. This helps to break up clumps of down and restore its fluffy loft.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth.
Jacket feels less warm than expected.
Ensure the down has fully lofted. If recently compressed, tumble drying on low heat can help reactivate its insulating properties. Also, ensure all zippers and closures are fully sealed.
