Full details

FAQs

What type of insulation does this jacket use?

The jacket uses a blend of 90% natural down and 10% feathers, totaling 165 grams of fill.

Is the hood adjustable?

The hood is fixed and features elastic ribbed trims for a snug fit, but it is not adjustable via drawstrings or toggles.

How should I wash the jacket to maintain its insulation?

Machine wash at 30°C using a mild detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softener. Tumble dry on low heat with dryer balls until completely dry.

Can this jacket be worn in heavy rain?

The polyamide shell offers some water resistance, but it is not waterproof. It's suitable for light rain or drizzle, but for heavy downpours, a dedicated waterproof outer layer would be recommended.

What are the main differences between this and other Blauer jackets?

The Wave Down Jacket specifically features horizontal wave quilting and lightweight down insulation for a balance of warmth and minimal bulk, suited for everyday cold weather. Other models might vary in insulation type, fill power, shell material, or design features.

Are there internal pockets?

Yes, the jacket features internal double pockets for additional secure storage.

What is the intended fit of this jacket?

The jacket has a regular fit, designed to be comfortable for layering while maintaining a streamlined, sporty silhouette.

Troubleshooting

Jacket appears flat or lacks loft after washing

Ensure the jacket is completely dry. Place it back in the dryer on a low heat setting with clean tennis balls or dryer balls for 30-60 minutes to help break up any down clumps and restore loft.

Zipper is stiff or sticking

Gently rub a graphite pencil lead or a bit of wax along the zipper teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper slider.

Jacket loses warmth over time

This may indicate that the down fill has become compressed or is no longer as effective. Proper washing and drying can help restore loft. If the issue persists significantly, the down may need replenishment, which is a specialized repair.
