Down ski jackets really are the best way to keep warm on the ski slopes, and they're still the favored choice for the majority of ski wear wardrobes. We stock plenty of down skiing jackets here at White Stone, and we're often asked for advice on washing and drying them properly... after all it can feel like a big risk - especially if you really love your jacket and you're heading to sub-zero climates!
Washing a down jacket is essential to maintain its maximum loft, and it can also significantly increase its lifespan, so it is definitely worth doing fairly regularly. Though it very much depends on how much wear and tear your jacket gets, it is normally worth washing a down jacket at least once a year.
All of the down ski jackets that we sell come with their own specific washing instructions which should always be retained and followed each time the jacket is washed. Though you should always follow the manufacturers instructions to the letter, here are a few pointers that apply to the vast majority of down-filled products, which should help to ensure that you don't damage your jacket in the washing or drying process...
These tips are intended as a general guideline for washing a down ski jacket, but you should always check the instructions that came with the jacket, or consult the manufacturers website for any specific instructions before washing your jacket.
