Washing jackets with Primaloft® Bio insulation
Padded jackets contain more materials than a lightweight shell jacket, but that doesn’t mean they’re complicated to care for. They just require a bit more time and some tumble-dryer balls.
Our jackets with PrimaLoft® BioTM can handle machine wash, and these are the steps you should follow:
Do not dry clean.
Before you wash your jacket, make sure to close all zippers, buttons, and sleeve cuffs.
Remove the attachable reflective tags. If your product has a belt, you should remove this too, if possible.
Turn your jacket inside out and make sure the front zipper is closed.
Use a mild detergent, but no bleach, softening or rinsing agents. They can damage the water-resistant properties and the colour of the fabric.
Wash the jacket alone, with tumble dryer balls. Select a gentle washing program at 30ºC.
Tumble dry at low heat or line dry the jacket. If you do the latter, make sure you shake and puff the jacket every half hour until it’s completely dry. This is to ensure that the padding dries properly.
Do not iron the product.
As an add-on you can use water-repellent spray on the outside of the garment after washing for optimal water-resistance. This has nothing to do with the waterproof quality of the garment, but it does help repel water off the fabric’s surface.

From down jackets to accessories and lightweight styles – we have a range of products in our collections, and how you can clean them depends on the fabric.
