FAQs
What is the fill power of the down?
The jacket is filled with 80% down and 20% feather, providing excellent insulation for its weight. Specific fill power (FP) is not provided, but this ratio indicates good thermal performance.
Is this jacket waterproof?
The jacket is designed for warmth and is water-resistant due to its polyamide shell, but it is not fully waterproof. For heavy rain, it is recommended to wear a waterproof outer layer over it.
How do I clean the jacket if it gets dirty?
Hand wash or machine wash on a gentle cycle at 30°C with a mild detergent specifically for down. Rinse thoroughly and tumble dry on low heat with dryer balls until completely dry. Refer to the 'Care' section for detailed instructions.
Can I wear this in very cold, wet weather?
While it provides good insulation, down loses its loft and insulating properties when wet. For very cold and wet conditions, it is best used as a mid-layer with a waterproof and windproof outer shell.
How small does it pack down?
One of the pockets is designed to act as a stuff sack, allowing you to fold and pack the jacket compactly for easy storage and transport.
What are the dimensions of the pockets?
The product description mentions two lower pockets and one chest pocket, all with zip fastenings for secure storage. Specific dimensions are not provided.
Is the hood adjustable?
The jacket features a grown-on hood. While the hood itself is not explicitly stated as adjustable, the hem drawcord and cuff adjustments can help seal in warmth around the head and neck area.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels less warm than usual
The down may have lost loft. Ensure the jacket is completely dry and tumble dry on low heat with dryer balls to help restore loft. Check care label for specific instructions.
Zippers are stiff or catching
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and a little water. For stubborn zippers, a small amount of graphite from a pencil lead can help lubricate them. Avoid using oil-based lubricants.
Down feathers are escaping through the fabric
This can occasionally happen with downproof fabrics. Gently pull the feather back through from the inside if possible. Minor leakage is normal, but significant loss may indicate a seam issue.
Jacket has an odor
Ensure the jacket is thoroughly clean and completely dry. Odors can occur if damp down is stored. Follow the recommended washing and drying instructions carefully.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: This jacket requires no setup. Simply unpack it and wear it. Adjust the cuffs and hem drawcord for a comfortable fit.
Compatibility: Suitable for adult males. Pairs well with casual wear, hiking attire, and can be layered under waterproof outerwear. Available in multiple sizes and colors.
Care: To maintain the performance and loft of the down filling:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle at 30°C with a specialized down wash or mild detergent. Use a front-loading machine as top-loaders can damage the down.
- Rinsing: Rinse twice to ensure all detergent is removed.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting. It may take several hours. Add clean tennis balls or dryer balls to help break up clumps of down and restore loft. Ensure the jacket is completely dry before storing.
- Storage: Store loosely in a breathable bag or its stuff sack to allow air circulation and prevent the down from compressing.
