FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
It is water-repellent, meaning it can handle light rain and snow, but it is not intended for heavy, prolonged downpours.
Can I store the jacket in its pocket long-term?
It is recommended to store the jacket hung up in a closet to preserve the down's loft; only pack it away for travel purposes.
What does 650-fill-power mean?
It refers to the quality of the down; 650-fill indicates a high level of loft and warmth for a jacket of this weight.
Is the hood removable?
This model features a mockneck design without a hood.
Does it have internal pockets?
The jacket features two external front zip pockets for secure storage.
Troubleshooting
Down feathers poking through the fabric
This is common with down garments; gently pull the feather back into the garment from the inside rather than pulling it all the way out.
Jacket lost its loft after washing
Re-tumble the jacket in the dryer on low heat with clean tennis balls for an additional 20-30 minutes to redistribute the down.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maintain the integrity of the down insulation, machine wash the jacket on a gentle cycle using a mild detergent specifically formulated for down products. Always include a few clean tennis balls in the dryer during the low-heat drying process to ensure the down clusters regain their loft. Avoid using fabric softeners or bleach, as these can strip the water-repellent treatment from the polyester shell. Store the jacket hanging in a cool, dry place when not in use; avoid keeping it compressed in its packable pocket for extended periods, as this can degrade the loft of the down over time.
