FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
The jacket features a TPU membrane which provides protection against wind and moderate moisture, but it is not classified as fully waterproof.
Can I wash this in a standard washing machine?
It is best to use a front-loading machine on a delicate cycle with a detergent specifically formulated for down.
What is the benefit of the 80/20 down ratio?
The 80% down provides the primary insulation, while the 20% feather content adds structure and helps the jacket maintain its shape.
Does the hood detach?
No, the Lainey jacket features a grown-on hood, meaning it is permanently attached for better windproofing.
Is the jacket true to size?
The DLX Lainey is designed as a standard fit, but if you intend to layer heavy sweaters underneath, you may prefer to size up.
Troubleshooting
Down feathers are poking through the fabric
This is normal for down products; gently pull the feather back into the garment from the inside rather than pulling it out.
Jacket feels flat after washing
Tumble dry on low heat with dryer balls or clean tennis balls to fluff the feathers back up.
Zipper is sticking
Check for fabric caught in the teeth and gently clean the zipper track with a soft cloth to remove debris.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your DLX Lainey jacket maintains its loft and thermal properties, avoid storing the jacket compressed for long periods. When cleaning is necessary, follow the care label strictly—typically involving a gentle wash cycle with specialized down detergent. It is highly recommended to tumble dry the garment with clean tennis balls to help redistribute the down feathers and restore the jacket's "puffiness" after washing. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can strip away the breathability of the TPU membrane and the natural oils in the down.
