FAQs

How long is the jacket?

The garment length is approximately 118 cm.

Can I wash this in a standard washing machine?

Yes, it is machine washable on a gentle cycle, but you must follow the specific tumble drying instructions to maintain the insulation.

What is the fill power of the down?

The jacket features a 650 fill power down insulation.

What is the HeatProtect collection?

HeatProtect is a technical range from Sweaty Betty specifically rated for high thermal performance in cold weather.

Do I need dryer balls for this jacket?

Yes, using dryer balls is highly recommended to ensure the down regains its fluffiness and warmth during the drying process.

Is the outer material waterproof?

The jacket is made of polyester and designed for warmth, but it is not marketed as a fully waterproof shell.

Troubleshooting

The jacket feels flat or has lost its volume after washing

The down is likely clumped from moisture. Tumble dry on low with multiple dryer balls to redistribute the feathers and restore the loft.

Small feathers are poking through the fabric

This is common with down garments. Do not pull the feather out; instead, gently pull it back inside from the opposite side and massage the fabric to close the gap.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent warmth-to-weight ratio thanks to 650 fill power
  • Extended longline coverage for better protection against wind and cold
  • Lightweight feel prevents the bulky sensation of standard winter coats
  • Part of the specialized high-rated HeatProtect collection

Cons

  • Requires careful laundering to prevent down clumping
  • Requires tumble drying with dryer balls for optimal loft maintenance
  • Longline cut may restrict movement compared to waist-length styles

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your jacket remains in top condition, follow these care guidelines closely. For washing, use a gentle machine cycle with a mild detergent. Crucially, when drying, you must use a low-heat setting and include dryer balls. This is not optional; the dryer balls are necessary to break up the down clusters and restore the jacket’s loft after it gets wet. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can coat the down and reduce its thermal performance. When storing, keep the jacket hung in a cool, dry place to prevent compression of the feathers, which can lead to cold spots over time.
