Troubleshooting
Down loft appears diminished after washing
Tumble dry on low heat with clean tennis balls. This helps to break up clumps and restore the down's natural loft.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Gently try to move the zipper. You can use a graphite pencil tip or a small amount of wax on the zipper teeth to lubricate it. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper track.
Jacket does not feel warm enough
Consider layering the jacket over a warmer mid-layer, such as a fleece or a thermal shirt, for added insulation in colder conditions.
Jacket has a persistent odor
Ensure the jacket is completely dry after washing and drying. If the odor persists, it may require another wash following the care instructions carefully.
