FAQs

What is the primary purpose of this jacket?

The Fusalp Charloy Down Jacket is designed for both ski-ready performance and stylish everyday wear, offering warmth and weather protection with a retro aesthetic.

How should I determine my size?

The jacket has an oversized fit. For a more regular fit, it is recommended to choose one size down from your usual size.

Can this jacket be worn in heavy rain?

Yes, the jacket features a waterproof, windproof, and breathable membrane, and a water-repellent shell, providing significant protection against rain and snow.

How do I maintain the water repellency?

Water repellency can be reactivated by tumble drying with tennis balls or by ironing the outer fabric (protected by a towel) at a low temperature. Regular dry cleaning also helps maintain its performance.

What kind of insulation does it use?

It uses synthetic down insulation, which provides warmth comparable to natural down but is more resilient to moisture.

Are the pockets suitable for ski essentials?

Yes, it includes a dedicated ski pass pocket and an interior chest pocket, in addition to two external pockets.

What materials is the jacket made from?

The main fabric is 82% Polyester and 18% Polyurethane. The lining is 100% Polyamide, and the padding is 100% Polyester. Storm cuffs are 88% Polyester and 12% Elastane.

Troubleshooting

Jacket not keeping water out

Ensure all zippers are fully closed. The water-repellent treatment may need to be reactivated by tumble drying with tennis balls or careful ironing as per care instructions.

Insulation feels flat or clumped

Tumble dry the jacket with 3 clean tennis balls on a low heat setting. This helps to redistribute and re-loft the synthetic insulation.

Colors appear faded after washing

Follow the 'wash inside out' and 'quick machine wash (max 30 minutes)' instructions strictly. Avoid harsh detergents and bleach. Consider dry cleaning for optimal color retention.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent warmth-to-weight ratio due to synthetic down insulation.
  • High level of weather protection with waterproof, windproof, and breathable features.
  • Stylish design with retro color blocking and an iridescent finish.
  • Functional features tailored for skiing, like a ski pass pocket and snow skirt.
  • Versatile for both mountain activities and everyday wear.

Cons

  • The oversized fit may not suit everyone and might require sizing down.
  • Requires specific care instructions for washing and maintaining water repellency.
  • Synthetic insulation, while warm, may not offer the same compressibility as high-loft down.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This jacket requires no assembly. It is ready to wear upon purchase.

Compatibility: Designed for adult women. Its oversized fit means it can be layered comfortably over other garments.

Care Instructions:

  • Washing: Close zippers before washing. Wash inside out using a quick machine wash cycle (maximum 30 minutes). Do not use bleach or fabric softener.
  • Drying: Tumble dry on low heat. Remove the garment immediately after drying and use 3 tennis balls in the dryer to help fluff the synthetic insulation and maintain loft.
  • Reactivating Water Repellency: Without a dryer, you can iron the outer fabric at a maximum of 110°C without steam, ensuring the fabric is protected by a towel. For best results and to maintain the fabric's integrity, dry cleaning is recommended.
