FAQs

What is the primary material of this jacket?

The jacket is made from 100% polyamide (nylon) with a resin coating, and it is filled with 80% duck down and 20% duck feather.

How does the jacket achieve its crinkled appearance?

The crinkled appearance is achieved through a process of resin coating the nylon fabric, followed by garment dyeing. This treatment causes the color to penetrate unevenly, resulting in a unique crinkled texture on the surface.

Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?

The jacket is treated with a special anti-drop agent, providing mild water resistance and wind resistance. It is best suited for light rain or drizzle, rather than heavy downpours.

How should I wash the jacket to maintain its features?

Machine wash cold (30°C) on a delicate cycle, inside out, and separately. Do not bleach. Tumble dry on low heat with tennis balls to help restore the down. Iron at a low temperature if necessary.

What does 'garment-dyed' mean for this jacket?

Garment-dying means the jacket is dyed after it has been fully constructed. This technique allows for unique color penetration and contributes to the jacket's distinctive crinkled look and texture.

Are there other sizes or colors available?

This guide focuses on the Stone Island Crinkle Reps Ny Jacket in Blue, size L. Other sizes and colors may be available; please check the product listing for variants.

What is the fill power of the down and feather insulation?

The product information specifies the fill as 80% Duck down, 20% duck feather, but does not provide a specific fill power rating.

Troubleshooting

Jacket loses its crinkled appearance after washing.

Ensure the jacket is thoroughly dried, ideally by tumble drying on a low setting with tennis balls. Avoid excessive heat during ironing. If the issue persists, consult the care label for specific re-treatment recommendations.

Down filling clumps after washing.

Tumble dry on a low heat setting with clean tennis balls or dryer balls. This helps to break up clumps and restore the loft of the down. Ensure the jacket is completely dry before storing.

Water repellency seems reduced.

The anti-drop finish may diminish over time with wear and washing. Consider using a specific re-waterproofing spray suitable for nylon and down-filled garments. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to operate.

Ensure the fabric around the zipper is not caught. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it remains stiff, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth.
