The jacket has a water-repellent finish, but it is not fully waterproof. It can withstand light rain and snow, but it is not designed for prolonged exposure to wet conditions.

How do I store the jacket during the off-season?

Store the jacket in a cool, dry place. Avoid compressing it for extended periods to maintain the down's loft and insulation properties.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is not as warm as expected.

Ensure the jacket is completely dry. Check for any damage or tears that may be causing down leakage. Consider layering with additional clothing.

Down is clumping after washing.

Tumble dry the jacket on low heat with clean tennis balls to redistribute the down and restore loft.
