FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?
The jacket has a water-repellent treatment, which is effective against light rain and drizzle. For prolonged or heavy rain, a fully waterproof jacket would be more appropriate.
What is the fill power of the down insulation?
While specific fill power is not provided, the 90% duck down and 10% duck feather composition indicates high-quality insulation for its weight.
Can I wear this jacket in very cold, sub-zero temperatures?
For mild to cool conditions, it's excellent. In very cold temperatures, it functions best as a warm mid-layer under a heavier, windproof outer shell.
How do I know if I've selected the correct size?
The jacket is described as having a 'Regular fit'. Refer to general sizing charts for men's jackets, and consider if you prefer a snug fit for layering or a looser fit.
Are the side pockets insulated?
The product description does not specify if the side pockets are insulated, but they are zipped for secure storage.
Can the hood be removed?
No, the hood is fixed and cannot be removed.
Troubleshooting
Jacket loses loft after washing
Re-fluff the down by tumble drying on a very low heat setting with clean tennis balls, or by gently shaking and patting the jacket while it air dries flat.
Water-repellent finish seems reduced
After washing and drying, iron the garment on a low setting to reactivate the water-repellent treatment. For a more thorough restoration, consider applying a specific water-repellent spray suitable for down clothing.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper teeth. Gently run a graphite pencil or a small amount of wax along the zipper teeth to lubricate it. Clean the teeth if dirt is present.
