FAQs
What is the fill power of the down insulation?
The Stratus Hoodie uses high-loft 750 fill power down insulation.
Is the jacket waterproof?
The jacket features a water-resistant ripstop shell, which can handle light rain or snow, but it is not fully waterproof. For heavy precipitation, a waterproof outer shell is recommended.
How do I ensure the down doesn't clump?
Proper washing and drying are key. Tumble dry on low with tennis balls. Avoid washing too frequently to preserve the down's natural oils.
Can this jacket be worn in very cold weather?
It provides excellent warmth for its weight, but for extreme cold, it's best used as part of a layering system with a warm base layer and a thermal mid-layer.
What is the best way to store the hoodie when not in use?
Store it loosely in a breathable bag or hang it in a closet. Avoid long-term compression in a stuff sack, as this can degrade the down's loft over time.
What are the main materials used in the Stratus Hoodie?
The jacket is made from a Nylon ripstop shell and insulated with 90% down and 10% feathers.
Troubleshooting
Down loft appears reduced after washing.
Tumble dry on low heat with clean tennis balls. The balls will help break up clumps and restore the down's loft. Repeat drying cycles if necessary until fully dry and lofty.
Slight down leakage from seams.
This is normal for down garments and usually minimal. Gently pull any protruding down back into the jacket from the inside. Avoid snagging or pulling vigorously.
Jacket feels less warm than expected.
Ensure the hem drawcord is tightened to seal out drafts. For colder conditions, consider layering a base and mid-layer underneath the hoodie. Verify the down is fully lofted.
