FAQs
Can I machine wash this vest?
Yes, use a gentle cycle with cold water and a down-specific detergent, then tumble dry low with dryer balls.
Is this vest waterproof?
It is water-repellent due to a DWR finish, which helps shed light rain, but it is not fully waterproof.
What does the regular fit mean?
It means the vest is designed to sit comfortably over light layers without being too tight or too oversized.
Is the material recycled?
Yes, the vest is made from certified recycled materials.
Does it have an inside pocket?
The vest features two outer angled welt pockets; there is no specific inner pocket listed.
How do I choose the right size?
The vest follows standard sizing (XS to XXXL). Refer to your usual size, keeping in mind it is a regular fit.
Troubleshooting
Down feathers are poking through the fabric
This is common with down products. Gently pull the feather back into the garment from the inside rather than pulling it out.
The vest feels flat after washing
Tumble dry on low heat with dryer balls or clean tennis balls to redistribute the down and restore loft.
Water is no longer beading on the surface
The DWR finish may have worn off. Apply a DWR spray treatment according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because this is a down-filled garment, proper care is essential to maintain the loft and thermal properties. We recommend machine washing on a gentle cycle with a detergent formulated for down apparel. Always include clean tennis balls or dryer balls in the tumble dryer on a low setting to ensure the down feathers regain their fluffiness. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can damage the DWR coating. Store the vest in a cool, dry place and avoid hanging it in direct sunlight for extended periods to maintain the beige colour integrity.
