Insulated and down jackets need less frequent washings than most outerwear. Over extended use, however, dirt and oils can build on both the fabric and the down fill. To extend the life of Oiselle insulated outerwear styles do the following:
- Follow care instructions on garment
- Spot clean as necessary
- Machine wash, ensuring all zippers are closed
- For best results, use a specific down cleaning product such as Nikwax Down Wash Direct®
- To maximize loft of the insulation, tumble dry your garment on a low setting with a couple of tennis balls which will prevent the insulation from clumping
