FAQs
Is the C.P. Company DD Shell Medium Down Jacket waterproof?
The jacket is crafted from micro-ripstop opaque 7-denier nylon, which offers good wind resistance and protection in cooler weather. While it provides some resistance to light moisture, it is not fully waterproof and is not designed for heavy rain.
How should I clean my C.P. Company down jacket?
Always refer to the specific care label inside your jacket. Generally, down jackets require a delicate wash cycle with cold water and a specialized down-specific detergent. Avoid traditional detergents, bleach, or fabric softeners. It is crucial to tumble dry on a low heat with tennis balls to re-fluff the down.
What kind of insulation does this jacket use?
This jacket features a high-quality insulation blend of 95% white duck down feathers and 5% feathers, providing excellent warmth-to-weight ratio.
What are the goggles on the hood for?
The goggles on the hood are a signature design element of C.P. Company, known for its distinctive and functional aesthetics. They contribute to the jacket's unique style.
Is this jacket suitable for very cold winters?
The jacket provides good warmth for cooler temperatures and mild winter conditions due to its down insulation. However, for extremely cold winter weather, especially in sub-zero temperatures, you might need to layer appropriately or opt for a heavier-duty winter coat.
Does the jacket have internal pockets?
The product description mentions a "two-pocket construction" for small essentials, which typically refers to exterior pockets. No internal pockets are explicitly mentioned.
Troubleshooting
Jacket appears flat or less puffy after washing
This is common with down jackets. Tumble dry the jacket on a low heat setting with 2-3 clean tennis balls. The tennis balls will help agitate and redistribute the down, restoring its loft. This may require several drying cycles.
Water repellency seems reduced
The micro-ripstop nylon offers some water resistance, but it's not fully waterproof. Over time, or after many washes, this repellency can diminish. Consider using a technical wash-in or spray-on DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment specifically designed for technical outerwear and down products, following the product's instructions carefully.
Small feathers are escaping through the fabric
It's normal for a small amount of down to escape, especially with new jackets. If it's excessive, check for any small tears or punctures in the fabric. For minor escapes, gently pull the feather back from the inside if possible, rather than pulling it out completely, which can create a larger opening.

This jacket requires no specific 'setup.' Simply choose the correct size for your build (available in sizes like S, M, L, XL, XXXL for adult males). It is compatible with a range of casual and smart-casual outfits, designed for versatile wear. For optimal longevity and performance, always refer to the product's care label for precise washing instructions. Generally, down jackets like this require careful handling:
- Cleaning: Typically, down jackets should be machine washed on a gentle, cold cycle with a specialized down detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or fabric softeners. Thorough rinsing is crucial.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting with a few clean tennis balls. This helps to break up the down clumps and restore the jacket's loft and warmth. This process can take several hours and may need multiple cycles. Ensure the jacket is completely dry before storing to prevent mildew.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally hanging or loosely folded, to maintain the down's loft. Avoid compressing for extended periods.
- Compatibility: Designed for adult males, offered in a regular fit.
