FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for very cold winter conditions?

Yes, the jacket features a high percentage of duck down (90%) and duck feathers (10%), providing significant insulation suitable for cold weather. However, for extreme cold, layering may be advisable.

How do I choose the right size?

The jacket has a relaxed fit. Refer to the sizing chart for measurements and consider your preferred layering options. If you are between sizes or prefer a less roomy feel, you might consider sizing down.

Can I wear both sides of the jacket in the rain?

The jacket is made of 100% polyester, which offers some water resistance. However, it is not waterproof. The packaway hood provides protection, but prolonged exposure to heavy rain may affect performance and require drying.

What does 'packaway hood' mean?

A packaway hood is a hood that can be folded or rolled up and stored within a specially designed compartment, usually in the collar, of the jacket. This keeps the silhouette clean when the hood is not needed.

What is the Knight Stamp?

The Knight Stamp is a brand application featured on the solid-colored side of the reversible jacket, serving as a subtle design element associated with Burberry.

How should I store the jacket when not in use?

Store the jacket in a cool, dry place. Avoid storing it in a tightly compressed bag for extended periods, as this can reduce the loft of the down filling. Hanging is ideal.

What is the difference between this jacket and a synthetic-fill jacket?

Down-filled jackets generally offer superior warmth-to-weight ratio compared to synthetic-fill jackets, meaning they are lighter for the same level of warmth. However, down can lose its insulating properties when wet, whereas synthetic fills retain some insulation even when damp.

Troubleshooting

Down clumping after washing

Re-tumble dry the jacket on a low heat setting with clean tennis balls or dryer balls. This helps to break up the clumps and restore the down's loft.

Zipper is difficult to move

Gently try to move the zipper. If it snags on fabric, carefully pull the fabric away from the zipper teeth. You can also apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth.

Jacket not as warm as expected

Ensure the jacket is completely dry, as damp down loses insulation. Check that all zippers and the hem drawstring are closed to prevent drafts. Consider if the ambient temperature requires a warmer layer underneath.

Outer fabric feels stiff

This is usually temporary after washing. Ensure thorough drying and gentle tumbling to restore softness. Avoid harsh detergents.

Care Instructions:

  • Machine Wash: The jacket can be machine washed. Follow the instructions below carefully to maintain the integrity of the down filling and fabric.
  • Washing: Wash inside out on a gentle cycle with cold water (30°C or 86°F). Use a detergent specifically designed for down products or a mild detergent. It is recommended to wash the jacket with tennis balls or dryer balls to help keep the down from clumping.
  • Rinsing: Ensure the jacket is thoroughly rinsed to remove all detergent.
  • Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting with dryer balls. Continue tumbling until the jacket is completely dry and the down has regained its loft. This may take several cycles. Do not dry clean.
  • Storage: Store in a dry, well-ventilated area. Avoid compressing the jacket for long periods to preserve the down's loft.
