Full details
The Animal Light Cloud Cosi Padded Jacket is an essential outer layer for adult men seeking reliable warmth and protection during cold-weather outdoor activities. Featuring high-quality synthetic microfibre padding and a DWR-treated water-resistant finish, it offers excellent heat retention and weather resistance in temperatures as low as -20 C. While it provides exceptional thermal performance, users should note that as a synthetic-filled garment, it requires specific care to maintain the loft and effectiveness of its insulation over time.

FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for extreme heavy rain?
No, it is treated with DWR to repel light rain, but it is not fully waterproof and should be paired with a shell in heavy downpours.
What is the lowest temperature this jacket is rated for?
The jacket has been thermal tested to perform in temperatures down to -20 C, depending on individual activity levels.
Does this jacket contain real down?
No, it uses high-quality synthetic microfibre padding, which acts as an effective, animal-friendly alternative to down.
Can I use fabric softener when washing?
No, you should avoid fabric softeners as they can damage the synthetic insulation and compromise the DWR water-resistant coating.
Are the pockets deep enough for a smartphone?
Yes, the integrated zipped pockets are designed to securely store essential personal items, including standard-sized smartphones.
Troubleshooting
Water no longer beads on the surface
The DWR finish has likely worn off. Wash the garment and apply a fresh DWR spray treatment followed by low-heat tumble drying to reactivate.
Insulation feels flat or clumpy
Tumble dry the jacket on low heat with tennis balls to fluff the microfibre padding and restore its original loft.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your jacket, adhere to the following care instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle using a mild detergent designed for technical outerwear. Avoid fabric softeners as they can strip the DWR treatment.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting. Including clean tennis balls in the dryer can help redistribute the synthetic insulation and restore loft.
- Re-proofing: If the outer fabric begins to 'wet out' instead of beading water, apply a DWR spray treatment to restore the water-resistant properties.
- Storage: Store the jacket in a cool, dry place on a wide hanger to maintain its shape and prevent compression of the padding.
