FAQs
What does 750 fill power mean for the down insulation?
750 fill power indicates the quality and loft of the down. Higher fill power means the down is lighter, more compressible, and provides better insulation for its weight compared to lower fill power down.
Is the jacket suitable for heavy rain?
The jacket features a water-repellent ripstop fabric, which is suitable for light rain or snow. For prolonged exposure to heavy downpours, a waterproof outer layer would be more appropriate.
How should I store the jacket when not in use?
For long-term storage, it is best to hang the jacket loosely in a breathable garment bag or on a hanger. Avoid compressing it tightly in a bag, as this can damage the down's loft and reduce its insulating ability over time.
Can I wear the Gorham jacket in very cold temperatures?
Yes, the jacket is designed for cold weather. For extreme cold, layering additional warm clothing underneath, such as a fleece or a thermal base layer, is recommended.
What is the main fabric made from?
The main fabric of the jacket is 100% recycled polyester. The lining is 100% polyamide, and the padding consists of 90% down and 10% feathers.
How do I adjust the fit of the jacket?
The jacket features adjustable hook-and-loop tabs on the cuffs and a drawstring hem, allowing you to customize the fit to better trap heat and block out drafts.
Is this jacket suitable for athletic activities?
While the jacket offers warmth and mobility for casual activities, it is not specifically designed for high-intensity athletic pursuits. Its insulation might be too warm, and breathability might be limited for strenuous exercise.
Troubleshooting
Jacket not providing enough warmth.
Ensure all zippers are fully closed and the drawstring hem is tightened. Check that the jacket is not overly compressed, which can reduce the loft and insulating properties of the down. If the jacket has been washed, ensure it is fully dry and has been tumble-dried on low with tennis balls to re-fluff the down.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to use.
Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it remains stiff, apply a small amount of graphite from a pencil lead or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth. Avoid forcing the zipper, as this can cause damage.
Down feathers are leaking from seams.
A small amount of down leakage can be normal, especially when the jacket is new. Gently pull the feather back through the fabric from the inside if possible. If significant leakage occurs, it may indicate a manufacturing defect and you should contact customer support.
Jacket smells musty after washing.
Ensure the jacket is completely dry before storing. If the musty smell persists, it may not have been dried thoroughly enough. Re-tumble dry on a low setting with dryer balls or tennis balls. Ensure the washing machine was also clean before washing.
