HOW TO CARE FOR YOUR DOWN JACKET
To keep your down jacket in top condition, follow these care steps:
1. Washing:
- Machine Wash: Use a front-loading washing machine to avoid damage to the delicate down insulation. If using a top-loader, consider using a mesh laundry bag to protect the jacket.
- Gentle Cycle & Cold Water: Wash the jacket on a gentle cycle with cold water to prevent damage to the down and the outer fabric.
- Mild Detergent: Use a down-specific detergent or a mild, non-detergent soap. Avoid fabric softeners, bleach, and regular laundry detergents, as these can strip the down of its natural oils and reduce loft.
2. Drying:
- Tumble Dry on Low Heat: Dry the jacket on low heat using a tumble dryer. Add a couple of clean tennis balls or dryer balls to help break up clumps of down and restore its loft.
- Patience is Key: Drying can take several hours. Be sure to stop the dryer every 20-30 minutes to manually break up any clumps that may form.
- Air Dry (Optional): If you prefer, you can air dry the jacket, but be sure to shake and fluff it regularly to restore loft.
3. Storing:
- Loosely Store: Avoid storing the jacket compressed in a stuff sack for long periods. Store it in a breathable garment bag or hang it in a dry, cool place to maintain loft and avoid mildew or mold.
- Keep Dry: Always ensure the jacket is fully dry before storing to prevent moisture from causing damage or mold.
4. Spot Cleaning:
- For small stains, use a damp cloth and mild soap to spot clean instead of washing the entire jacket.
5. Avoid:
- Dry Cleaning: Do not dry clean your down jacket, as the chemicals used can damage the down insulation.
- High Heat: Never expose the jacket to high heat, whether in the dryer or near radiators, as this can damage the fabric and insulation.
- Bleach & Harsh Chemicals: Bleach and harsh chemicals can strip the natural oils from down, reducing its insulating properties.
UNPACKING YOUR NEW DOWN JACKET
When you first unpack your down jacket, it may appear flat or compressed. This is normal due to the packaging. To restore its natural loft, hang the jacket in a well-ventilated area for at least 48 hours. This allows the down feathers to "fluff" and regain their full volume, ensuring maximum insulation. Avoid wearing or storing the jacket before this process is complete for optimal warmth and comfort.
