FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
It is designed to be warm and durable, but it is not a technical waterproof shell. It performs best in dry, cold conditions.
Can I layer clothing under this puffer?
Yes, the jacket is designed with a fit that accommodates standard base layers or light sweaters underneath.
How should I wash the jacket?
Always check the internal tag for specific instructions, but generally, use a gentle cycle with cold water and mild detergent.
What is the best way to store it in summer?
Store it in a breathable garment bag in a cool, dry closet to prevent moisture buildup and maintain insulation loft.
Is this suitable for extreme alpine conditions?
While warm, it is intended for everyday adult wear. For extreme alpine environments, you may require specialized technical gear.
Troubleshooting
Zipper feels stiff or catches
Clear any debris or fabric caught in the zipper track and apply a light silicone-based lubricant if necessary.
Insulation appears flattened
Gently shake or tumble the jacket on a low-heat setting with dryer balls to restore the loft of the internal insulation.
Minor exterior snag
Use a small repair patch kit or consult a professional tailor to prevent the tear from widening.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your TNF OS Puffer, proper care is essential. When not wearing the jacket, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can degrade synthetic fibers over time. For cleaning, follow the manufacturer's care label specifically; generally, it is best to use a mild detergent and avoid harsh fabric softeners that can strip the water-repellent properties of the shell fabric. Avoid high-heat drying, as this can affect the loft and integrity of the internal insulation. If the jacket becomes damp, allow it to air dry fully in a well-ventilated area before putting it into long-term storage.
