Extended Product Information
FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
It is water-resistant thanks to a durable water repellent (DWR) finish. It will repel light moisture and snow, but it is not intended for heavy, sustained rainfall.
Can I use regular laundry detergent?
It is strongly recommended to use a down-specific cleaner. Regular detergents can strip the natural oils from the down, causing it to lose its loft and insulating properties.
What is NetPlus material?
NetPlus is a textile made from 100% recycled fishing nets, helping to mitigate ocean plastic pollution while creating durable, functional outdoor gear.
Is the hood detachable?
No, the hood is integrated into the design to ensure maximum heat retention and prevent cold drafts from entering the neck area.
How should I store this jacket during the summer?
Store it in a breathable garment bag or hanging in a closet. Avoid plastic bags, which can trap moisture and damage the down.
Troubleshooting
Down feathers are poking through the fabric
This is normal for high-fill down products. Gently pull the feather back into the jacket from the inside and rub the fabric to reseal the weave.
Jacket feels flat after washing
The down is likely still damp or clumped. Return the jacket to the dryer on a low-heat cycle with extra clean tennis balls to redistribute the feathers.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Patagonia Hi-Loft Jacket, follow these care guidelines:
- Washing: Use a front-loading washing machine on a gentle cycle with cold water. Use a down-specific detergent to maintain the oil levels in the feathers.
- Drying: Tumble dry on low heat with tennis balls or dryer balls to help fluff the down and prevent clumps. This step is essential; do not air dry the jacket as the down will not dry evenly.
- Storage: Hang the jacket in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid compressing it into a tight space for long-term storage to keep the insulation fluffy.
- Compatibility: The jacket is designed to be low-profile enough to fit comfortably under thicker winter blankets in a stroller or car seat, though always follow manufacturer guidelines regarding car seat safety and bulkier clothing.
