FAQs
What is the primary material of this jacket?
The jacket is primarily made of 100% Polyamide/Nylon for the exterior and lining, with a filling of 90% down and 10% feather.
Is the hood detachable?
Yes, the hood is described as both adjustable and detachable, allowing for versatility in different weather conditions.
How do I determine the correct size?
Refer to the 'Dimensions & fit' section in the product description for model height and measurements, and consider the jacket's classic, slightly tailored cut that falls at the hips. It is recommended to compare these with your own measurements.
Can this jacket be worn in heavy rain?
The jacket is made from water-resistant nylon, offering protection against light rain or snow. For heavy downpours, a more specialized waterproof jacket would be recommended.
What is 'longue saison' nylon?
Longue saison is a type of nylon fabric known for being lightweight while providing significant warmth, often used in high-quality outerwear.
How should I clean the jacket?
It is recommended to wash on a cold, gentle cycle with down-specific detergent and tumble dry on low with dryer balls. Professional dry cleaning is also an option. Always check the garment's care label.
What does 'boudin quilting' mean?
Boudin quilting refers to the horizontal, channel-like stitching that creates the puffy, quilted appearance. It's a classic design element in down jackets for even insulation.
Troubleshooting
Jacket appears flat or clumpy after washing/drying.
Ensure the jacket is completely dry. Re-tumble dry on low heat with dryer balls or tennis balls to help break up clumps and restore loft. If the issue persists, consult a professional cleaner experienced with down garments.
Zipper is difficult to operate.
Gently try to operate the zipper. If it snags, check for any fabric caught in the teeth. Lubricate the zipper track with a graphite pencil tip or a specialized zipper lubricant. Avoid forcing the zipper.
Down feathers are escaping from the seams.
A small amount of feather loss is normal initially. For persistent leakage, gently pull the feather back into the garment if possible. If the fabric appears torn, it may require professional repair.
Jacket loses its water-repellent property.
The durable water repellent (DWR) finish may wear off over time. Consider reapplying a DWR treatment specifically designed for technical outerwear. Follow product instructions carefully.
