Product Information

Full details

The Karrimor Base Camp Down Jacket is an ideal choice for outdoor enthusiasts and hikers who require a reliable, lightweight layering piece for cold-weather adventures. This jacket delivers high-quality 600 fill insulation and wind-resistant protection, making it a versatile staple for chilly conditions; however, users should note that while it features a DWR finish for water resistance, it is not a fully waterproof shell and should be paired with a rain jacket in severe downpours.

FAQs

Is the hood removable?

Yes, the jacket features a detachable hood that can be easily removed or adjusted using the integrated toggles.

Can I wear this in the rain?

The jacket has a DWR finish which sheds light moisture, but it is not waterproof. For heavy rain, wear a dedicated waterproof shell over it.

How should I store the jacket?

It is best stored hanging in a cool, dry place to prevent the down from becoming permanently compressed.

What does 600 fill power mean?

It refers to the quality of the down; 600 fill provides a great balance of insulation and compressibility.

Is the jacket machine washable?

Yes, but use a mild, down-specific detergent and a delicate cycle to preserve the integrity of the fill.

Troubleshooting

Feathers leaking through the seams

This is common with down garments; gently pull the feather back into the jacket from the inside rather than pulling it through the fabric.

Jacket losing warmth over time

The down may have clumped together; wash and tumble dry on low heat with clean tennis balls to re-fluff the insulation.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Lightweight construction for easy packing
  • High-fill insulation provides excellent warmth
  • Effective wind-resistant outer layer
  • Adjustable features like the detachable hood enhance versatility

Cons

  • Not intended for heavy, prolonged rain exposure
  • Requires careful laundering to maintain loft
  • Limited to two hand pockets

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your jacket remains in top condition, always shake it gently after removing it from storage to help the down regain its loft. For cleaning, it is recommended to follow the specific care label instructions, typically involving machine washing on a delicate cycle with a detergent designed for down garments. Avoid using fabric softeners as they can strip the DWR finish and inhibit the effectiveness of the insulation. When storing, try to hang the jacket in a cool, dry place rather than compressing it in a stuff sack for extended periods. If you are layering, this jacket fits well under a hardshell waterproof jacket if you expect heavy rain.
