Troubleshooting

The jacket feels less warm than expected.

Ensure the jacket is clean and dry. Check that the down fill is evenly distributed. If the jacket is wet, it will lose some of its insulation properties. Allow it to dry completely before use.

The jacket is losing down feathers.

This is normal with down jackets. Trim any loose feathers and avoid pulling them out. The jacket should not be overfilled.

The zipper is stuck.

Try lubricating the zipper with a zipper wax or a bar of soap. Gently work the zipper up and down to free it.
