Maintenance and care of down jackets

‌Maintenance and care of down jackets‌ mainly include cleaning, drying, storage and regular turning. Here are some specific maintenance tips:

Cleaning tips
‌Choose the right washing method‌: Down jackets should not be washed frequently. Usually, they can be washed 1-2 times after use in winter. Hand washing is a better choice. Use neutral and mild detergents. The water temperature should be below 30 degrees. Avoid using bleach or softener. If the washing machine allows, you can choose the gentle mode and put it in the laundry bag for washing. ‌
‌Local cleaning‌: For local stains, you can use special down jacket cleaning wipes or degreasing balls. These products are mild and non-corrosive, suitable for use in autumn and winter, and can also extend the warmth of down jackets. ‌
‌Avoid high temperature treatment‌: The water temperature should not exceed 30 degrees during washing. Avoid high temperature ironing and drying to avoid damaging the down. ‌
Drying tips
‌Natural drying‌: After washing the down jacket, gently squeeze out the water. Avoid wringing it hard or using the washing machine's dehydration function. It is recommended to dry naturally. You can use a low-temperature dryer but not a high-temperature one.
‌Restore Fluffy‌: If you find that the down is clumping after drying, you can gently pull it apart and pat it to restore the fluffy state of the down jacket. ‌
Storage Tips
‌Dry Storage‌: Make sure the down jacket is completely dry before storage to avoid moisture. It is best to hang it for storage to avoid compression and maintain its fluffiness and warmth.
‌Insect Prevention‌: You can put some insect repellent during storage to prevent small insects from damaging the down jacket.
‌Use Dust Bag‌: You can wrap the down jacket in a dust bag and hang it in the closet. At the same time, you can put some desiccant to help prevent moisture. ‌
Turn it regularly to keep its shape
Turn the down jacket regularly to keep its shape and prevent the down from clumping or deformation. If you don't wear it for a long time, remember to take it out to dry and pat it gently to maintain its fluffiness and warmth.

The above maintenance tips can effectively extend the service life of the down jacket and maintain its warmth and appearance.
