FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
It offers water resistance suitable for light precipitation, but it is not a fully waterproof rain jacket.
Can I wear this for skiing?
While it provides warmth, it lacks the technical features like powder skirts or reinforced seams found on dedicated ski gear.
How should I store the jacket in summer?
Store it in a cool, dry place on a hanger rather than compressed in a vacuum-sealed bag to preserve the fill.
What is the best way to clean the puffer?
Machine wash on a gentle cycle with cold water and tumble dry on low heat with dryer balls.
Does it run true to size?
Yes, it follows standard sizing, though the fit is intended to be roomy enough to accommodate base layers.
Troubleshooting

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your puffer jacket, always check the internal care label. Generally, this garment should be machine washed on a gentle cycle with cold water using a mild detergent designed for down or synthetic insulation. Avoid fabric softeners which can damage the water-resistant coating. Tumble dry on low heat with clean tennis balls or dryer balls to help restore the jacket's original loft and fluffiness. For storage, avoid compressing the jacket under heavy items for extended periods to maintain its insulating properties.
