FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
The Hyalite Down Jacket is designed for warmth and is not waterproof. It is best used in dry, cold conditions or as a layer under a shell.
Can I put this in the dryer?
Yes, you can tumble dry on low heat, ideally with tennis balls to help fluff the down.
Does it have an internal pocket?
No, this specific model features two external zippered hand pockets for storage.
How do I choose the right size?
The jacket follows a standard fit. If you plan to layer thick sweaters underneath, you may prefer to size up from your usual preference.
What is the primary material?
The jacket is crafted from high-quality, durable nylon, providing a balance of strength and lightweight performance.
Troubleshooting
Down feathers are poking through the fabric
Small amounts of shedding are normal for down garments. Gently pull the feather back into the jacket from the inside if possible, then rub the fabric to close the gap.
Jacket feels less warm after washing
This is likely due to the down clumping. Tumble dry on low with tennis balls to redistribute the down and restore loft.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
The Hyalite Down Jacket is designed for a standard, comfortable fit. To maintain the integrity of the 600-fill insulation, it is recommended to wash the garment on a gentle cycle at 40°C. Ensure all zippers are closed before washing to prevent snagging. To restore the loft of the down after drying, tumble dry on low heat with clean tennis balls. For storage, hang the jacket in a cool, dry place and avoid compressing it in a stuff sack for extended periods to maintain the down's insulating capacity.
