FAQs

Is this jacket waterproof or water-repellent?

The jacket features a water-repellent finish, which means it can resist light rain and moisture but is not fully waterproof. It is designed to keep you comfortable in moderate weather conditions.

How do I determine the correct size?

The jacket is designed for a regular fit. We recommend referring to a standard sizing chart for women's apparel and considering what you plan to wear underneath. If you prefer a looser fit for layering, consider sizing up.

Can I machine wash this jacket?

Machine washing is not recommended for this jacket due to its down filling and delicate polyamide material. Dry cleaning is the preferred method to maintain its quality and performance.

What is the primary benefit of the down filling?

The primary benefit of the 90% down and 10% feather filling is its exceptional warmth-to-weight ratio, providing significant insulation without adding bulk to the jacket.

How do I care for the gold-tone hardware?

The gold-tone logo plaque and hardware should be cleaned gently with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or polishing compounds that could damage the finish.

Can the hood be completely removed?

Yes, the hood is detachable, allowing you to switch between a hooded and collar-only style depending on your preference and the weather.

What types of occasions is this jacket suitable for?

This jacket is versatile and suitable for urban adventures, city strolls, casual outings, and even more elegant evenings. Its sophisticated design makes it adaptable to various settings.

Troubleshooting

Jacket loses its loft or appears flat.

The down filling may have clumped. Gently tumble dry on a low heat setting with a few clean tennis balls to help redistribute the down and restore loft. Ensure the jacket is completely dry afterwards.

Zipper is difficult to move.

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently work the zipper back and forth. If stiffness persists, a small amount of graphite from a pencil lead applied to the teeth can help lubrication.

Water repellency is reduced.

The water-repellent finish may need to be reactivated or reapplied. Tumble drying on low heat (as per care instructions) can sometimes reactivate the existing DWR treatment. For significant reduction, consider using a specialized DWR spray for technical outerwear.

Care Instructions:
