If not cared for properly, you will have to buy a new item next season.

Most often, people buy a down jacket expecting to wear it for more than one winter.

Clothes will last for several seasons if they are not only washed properly, but also dried. There are several rules that will help preserve the item.

After washing, the down jacket should not be dried on a radiator or heater. This may cause deformation of the fabric and the appearance of stains.

When drying clothes on the balcony, make sure they are exposed to direct sunlight. Experts say this can cause the clothes to take on a dirty yellow tint.

This outerwear should not be dried for more than 2 days. Otherwise, the filler will become a source of unpleasant odor. It is necessary to provide conditions under which the down jacket dries in a day or even earlier.

For example, the cold mode of the hair dryer will speed up drying. In addition, it is worth kneading the filler with your hands several times a day.
