Questions & Answers
Does this jacket have any windproof protection?
I don't have a dryer, just a regular washing machine, can I still use tennis balls when this jacket is on the Spin mode (which basically removes all the water)?
Asked by: KiwiNoy
As an insulation layer, this will provide some protection from wind, however the material is not windproof. We would not recommend using a spin cycle instead of a dryer.

Does the mustard yellow jacket get dirty easily? How easy is it to wipe dirt off with damp cloth?
Asked by: Zee22
This yellow colour will be one that could get dirty easily just because of the light colour. This does completely depend on your use of the jacket. The good this is that down jackets are pretty easy to wash! You could definitely use a damp cloth to get rid of excess dirt or you can wash the jacket in your washing machine using a down wash with no enzymes and then using dryer balls or clean tennis balls in the dryer to fluff up the jacket nicely. For more information on how to care for your down jacket, please refer to our Help Centre and then under 'Product Information' you will see 'Product Care'. Click on this one and you will find a lot of in depth information from our product experts!

Would you recommend adding a waterproofing spray coat to make it more resistant to water ? If yes, any waterproofing spray or one for a special material ?
Asked by: AlexAlex
This product already has a DWR coating applied, which is what most waterproofing sprays contain. Applying a spray would most likely not help much, as the seams are not sealed on this garment which is where most water will soak through.

Would this jacket be good for a 655km hike at winter time in freezing temperatures with snow in Victoria, Australia
Asked by: Ayden
The level of insulation will be great for your adventure, but you you will need to combine with a waterproof outershell as this jacket is only lightly water resistant.
