FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?
The jacket has a water-repellent finish, which is suitable for light rain or snow. For heavy downpours, a fully waterproof jacket would be more appropriate.
How warm is this jacket?
This jacket offers high insulation due to its duck down and feather filling, making it very warm and suitable for cold weather conditions.
What is the fit like?
The jacket runs small. It is strongly recommended to consider sizing up for a comfortable fit, especially if you plan to wear thicker layers underneath.
Can I wear a thick sweater under this jacket?
While the jacket offers stretch inserts, it runs small. If you intend to wear thick sweaters, sizing up is highly advisable to ensure comfort and mobility.
How should I clean the jacket to maintain its properties?
Machine wash cold (30°C) and tumble dry low with dryer balls. Avoid bleach, ironing, and dry cleaning to preserve the fabric and filling.
What is the outer shell made of?
The outer fabric is composed of 85% polyamide and 15% elastane, offering a balance of durability and stretch.
Does the hood offer protection from wind?
Yes, the hood is integrated and adjustable, helping to provide protection against wind and retain warmth around the head and neck.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels too tight despite ordering usual size
The Colmar Durability Down Jacket is designed to run small. Consider ordering one size up from your usual size for a more comfortable fit, especially if you prefer layering underneath.
Down feathers are escaping through seams
Some minor feather leakage can occur, especially in new down products. Gently pull escaped feathers back through the fabric from the opposite side. If leakage is excessive, contact customer support.
Water repellency seems reduced
Water repellency can decrease over time. Consider reapplying a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish using a product specifically designed for down jackets and outdoor apparel, following the product's instructions.
Jacket has lost its loft and appears flat after washing
Ensure the jacket was tumble dried on a low setting with dryer balls or clean tennis balls. This helps to break up clumps of down and restore the loft. If still flat, try another low-heat tumble dry cycle with dryer balls.

Care Instructions:
To maintain the jacket's performance and longevity, follow these care guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash cold (30°C). Use a mild detergent. It is recommended to wash the jacket inside out.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low setting. It is advisable to add tennis balls or dryer balls to the dryer to help redistribute the down filling evenly and restore loft.
