Proper care is essential to maintain the longevity and performance of your down vest.
Washing: Machine wash at 30 degrees Celsius using a gentle cycle. It is recommended to use a mild detergent specifically designed for down products if available, or a non-bio detergent.
Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting with dryer balls (e.g., clean tennis balls) to help break up down clumps and restore loft. This process may take several hours. Ensure the vest is completely dry before storing to prevent mildew and preserve the down's insulating properties.
Do Not Bleach: Avoid using bleach, as it can damage the fabric and down filling.
Do Not Iron: Ironing is not recommended as high heat can damage the technical fabric.
Do Not Dry Clean: Dry cleaning solvents can strip natural oils from the down, reducing its loft and warmth.
Storage: Store the vest uncompressed in a dry, well-ventilated area to maintain its loft.
