FAQs
What is the primary function of the elasticated waistband?
The elasticated waistband, often with a drawstring, helps to create a snug fit at the hips, preventing wind and snow from entering the jacket from the bottom.
Can I machine wash this jacket?
No, this jacket requires specialist cleaning only. Machine washing or tumble drying can damage the down filling and the technical fabric.
What materials are used for insulation?
The jacket is filled with 90% down and 10% feathers, providing excellent thermal insulation.
Is the hood detachable?
Yes, the jacket features a removable hood that can be detached or concealed, offering flexibility for different weather conditions and styling preferences.
What type of pockets are included?
The jacket includes zipped external pockets, internal pockets for secure storage, and a specific pocket for a ski pass.
What does 'recycled materials' mean in the product description?
It means that parts of the jacket's lining and outer fabric are made from post-consumer or post-industrial recycled polyester and polyamide, contributing to sustainability.
What is the fit of this jacket?
The jacket has a relaxed fit, designed to offer comfort and ease of movement, suitable for layering over other clothing.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is difficult to move
Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to free any snagged material. A small amount of silicone-based lubricant or wax can be applied to the zipper track for smoother operation.
Jacket feels less warm than expected
Ensure the down filling is evenly distributed. If the jacket has been compressed for storage, gently fluff it by hand. Check that all zippers and openings are fully closed to prevent drafts.
Water repellency is reduced
The water-repellent treatment may have worn off. Specialist cleaning can sometimes refresh this. For persistent issues, consider applying a re-waterproofing treatment specifically designed for technical outerwear, following product instructions carefully.
