Stratus Hoodie - Black - XL

The Stratus Hoodie is water-resistant, meaning it can handle light rain or snow. For prolonged or heavy downpours, a waterproof outer shell is recommended.

It's best to wash your down hoodie only when necessary, such as when it is visibly dirty or has lost loft. Over-washing can reduce the down's effectiveness. Follow the specific care instructions for washing.

Fill power (750 in this case) is a measure of the down's loft or quality. Higher fill power indicates that the down can trap more air, providing better insulation for its weight.

The Stratus Hoodie provides significant warmth for its weight and is excellent for layering. For very cold temperatures (below freezing), it is best used as a mid-layer combined with a warm base layer and a windproof/waterproof outer shell.

This hoodie is designed for lightweight warmth and packability, making it ideal for active use and travel in milder conditions or as a layering piece. Parkas are typically longer, heavier, and designed for extreme cold weather protection.

For long-term storage, keep the hoodie uncompressed in a dry, breathable environment. Avoid storing it in a compression sack, as this can damage the down's ability to loft and insulate effectively.

This is normal for down-filled products. Gently pull the cluster back into the garment from the inside or carefully trim any protruding feather shaft with scissors. Do not pull.

Ensure the jacket was thoroughly dried on a low heat setting with dryer balls to break up down clumps. You may need to repeat the drying process. Use a down-specific cleaner.

The water-resistant coating may be diminishing or the fabric has been saturated. Ensure the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment is intact. Reapply a DWR treatment if necessary following product instructions.

Gently try to move the zipper up and down. Apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant or wax (like a candle or lip balm) to the zipper teeth and try again.
