FAQs
Is the material waterproof?
The CORDURA ripstop nylon is highly durable and resistant to wear, but it is not a fully waterproof rain garment.
How do I choose the right size?
The vest is designed with a standard fit. We recommend checking your measurements against a standard sizing chart, keeping in mind that it is intended as a versatile layering piece.
What is the RDS certification?
The Responsible Down Standard ensures the down comes from animals that have not been subjected to unnecessary harm.
Can I machine wash this vest?
Check the internal care tag specifically, but generally, down items require specialized, gentle care to maintain the integrity of the insulation.
Does the fabric feel like plastic?
No, the Taslan yarns provide a soft, matte, and comfortable feel that is more akin to natural cotton than traditional shiny nylon.
Troubleshooting
Small feathers poking through the fabric
This is common with down garments; do not pull the feather. Instead, push it back into the vest from the inside and gently massage the fabric to close the opening.
Vest loses loft after storage
Shake the vest vigorously or tumble dry on a low-heat setting with dryer balls to redistribute the down and restore volume.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This garment is ready for immediate wear. To ensure longevity, always follow the care label instructions inside the vest. Due to the down insulation, it is recommended to dry clean or use a specialized down-safe wash cycle with a gentle detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can degrade the specialized finish of the CORDURA fabric. When storing, keep the vest in a cool, dry place and avoid compressing it under heavy items for extended periods to maintain the loft of the down.
