Introduction

Down jackets are a great way to stay warm in cold weather, but they can be tricky to care for. If you don't wash and dry them properly, you can damage the down and ruin the jacket. Here are the steps on how to properly wash and dry a down jacket:

Washing

1. Close all zippers and velcro closures on the jacket.
2. Turn the jacket inside out.
3. Wash the jacket on a gentle cycle in cold water.
4. Use a mild detergent that is designed for down jackets.
5. Rinse the jacket thoroughly.
6. Do not use fabric softener.

Drying

1. Remove the jacket from the washing machine and shake it to distribute the down.
2. Tumble dry the jacket on low heat with dryer balls.
3. Dry the jacket until it is completely dry.
4. Do not over-dry the jacket, as this can damage the down.

Tips

Here are a few tips for washing and drying a down jacket:
• Wash the jacket as infrequently as possible.
• If the jacket is only lightly soiled, you can spot clean it instead of washing it.
• Do not use bleach on a down jacket.
• Do not dry clean a down jacket.
• Store the jacket in a cool, dry place.

By following these steps, you can help keep your down jacket looking and performing its best for many years to come.
