FAQs

What is the temperature rating of this parka?

The parka has a temperature rating of Level 3, which is suitable for cold climates.

Is the hood adjustable?

Yes, the hood is adjustable with a cord, and it also features a detachable lambskin trim.

How do I clean the main body of the parka?

Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with a down-specific detergent. Tumble dry on low heat with dryer balls. Ensure all zippers are closed before washing.

Can I wash the lambskin trim?

The lambskin trim should be removed before washing the parka. Professional dry cleaning is recommended for the trim.

What is the water resistance of the outer fabric?

The outer fabric has a water resistance of 10,000 mm.

What type of insulation is used?

The parka is insulated with 90% duck down and 10% duck feather, providing 700 fill power.

How does the down-proof construction help?

The down-proof construction prevents the down filling from escaping through the fabric, maintaining the coat's loft and insulating effectiveness over time.

Troubleshooting

Down loft is reduced after washing.

Ensure the garment is completely dry by using a low heat tumble dry cycle with dryer balls to break up clumps and restore loft. Multiple cycles may be needed.

Water is seeping through the fabric.

Check that all zippers and fastenings are fully closed. The outer fabric is water-resistant but not fully waterproof under constant immersion. Ensure the laminated coating is intact and consider re-waterproofing if necessary.

Zipper is difficult to move.

Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper teeth. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or graphite (from a pencil tip) to the zipper teeth for smoother operation.

Lambskin trim is dirty.

Remove the lambskin trim and consult a professional dry cleaner specializing in leather and fur for appropriate cleaning methods.

Care Instructions:

  • Washing: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with a down-specific detergent. Close all zippers and fastenings. Do not bleach.
