Troubleshooting
Jacket feels flat or lacks loft after washing.
Ensure the jacket was tumble dried on low heat with clean tennis balls to help redistribute and re-fluff the down and feather filling.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to use.
Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. Lubricating the zipper teeth with a graphite pencil or wax can help.
Visible down or feathers escaping.
This can occasionally happen with down-filled garments. Gently pull any escaping feathers back inside the fabric. If extensive leakage occurs, contact customer support.
