DWR
Durable Water Resistant finishes are applied to the outer surface of garments to increase their resistance to water.

Goose Down
Goose Down is the most efficient natural fill material available. Lightweight, compressible, and incredibly warm, down garments and sleeping bags are the gear of choice for serious backpackers and mountaineers. Mountain Hardwear uses three types of Goose Down, 800, 650 and 050 fill, all certified and tested for purity and loft consistency.

Velboa Raschel Lining
100% polyester fleece: fine gauge, high pile raschel knit with fine microfiber. Soft, silky, and warm.

Micro-chamois
100% polyester, warp knit tricot. 50 denier microfiber yarn knit in a fine gauge construction. Brushed face. Wicking finish.

Butter Jersey
Ultra comfortable. 86% Microfilament Polyester, 14% Lycra, sanded both sides. 4.3 oz/sq.yd. Wicking finish.

Care and Feeding of Your Down Garments
WASHING
Professional Cleaning: Your down garment can be professionally washed, but should never be dry cleaned, because the chemicals used are harmful to the fabrics and filling and will severely reduce loft and thermal efficiency. Check the yellow pages under Camping, Backpacking, or Mountaineering Equipment for folks who specialize in cleaning outdoor products. Your local retailer may also be able to refer you. Be sure to ask if they specifically wash down clothing.

Machine Wash: Zip up all the zippers, attach all Velcro and turn your garment inside out. Wash in a front-loading machine only, using cold water on a gentle setting. Use a minimum amount of a mild powder soap or special down soap (available at outdoor stores). Use at least two rinse cycles to get all the soap out of the garment.

DRYING
When moving your garment from the washer to the dryer, do so carefully by carrying it from the bottom. Tumble dry in a large commercial dryer on low heat. The dryer must be large enough for the garment to flop freely around. Drying could take several hours and your garment should be checked often to make sure it is not overheated. As it dries, look for clumps of wet down and gently shake to redistribute the down.

NO-NOS

• Do not use a top-loading washing machine (the agitator will destroy the channels).
• Do not use liquid soap or detergent. Do not use strong soap or detergent.
• Do not use your home dryer (they have been known to melt holes in the fabric).
• Do not lift your garment from one end when wet (lift the entire thing all at once from underneath).
• Do not dry in the sun (the UV will damage the nylon).
