FAQs
What type of weather is this jacket best suited for?
This jacket is ideal for mild to moderate weather conditions, such as spring, autumn, or cool summer evenings. It offers light warmth and protection from light rain.
How do I pack the jacket for travel?
The jacket comes with an integrated pouch. Fold the jacket according to its internal structure and tuck it into the pouch. You can then store this pouch in a bag or backpack.
Is the jacket machine washable?
Yes, the jacket is generally machine washable. Please follow the specific care label instructions, typically washing in cold water with a mild detergent and drying on a low setting.
What does 'Plumtech padding' mean?
Plumtech is Save The Duck's proprietary padding technology. It is a synthetic filling made from recycled polyester that mimics the loft and warmth of down while being lightweight and breathable.
Can this jacket be worn in heavy rain?
The jacket has a water-repellent finish, which means it can handle light rain or drizzle. It is not designed for prolonged exposure to heavy downpours and is not fully waterproof.
What is the silhouette of the jacket?
The jacket features a trapeze silhouette, which is slightly wider towards the hem, offering a relaxed and modern fit.
Troubleshooting
Jacket not regaining full shape after unpacking.
Allow the jacket to hang for a few hours or gently tumble dry on a low heat setting to help it regain its loft and shape.
Water repellency seems reduced after washing.
Ensure you have followed the care instructions precisely, using a mild detergent and avoiding fabric softeners. Consider using a reproofing spray specifically designed for synthetic outerwear after washing and drying.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to use.
Check for any fabric caught in the zipper. Gently glide a pencil lead or a small amount of wax along the teeth of the zipper to lubricate it. Avoid forcing the zipper.
