Hey guys!
After much interest on my Instagram account I've decided to show you exactly how I wash my feather down jacket without ruining it! You will need a dryer for this technique, however I'm sure you could do this without a dryer but be prepared for a loooooong drying process.
Please note that I am NOT a feather down jacket washing professional. Follow this tutorial at your own risk! If you are not comfortable in washing your own jacket please seek a professional to help you.
Enjoy! . .

Nice.. it’s also good to turn your jacket inside out while washing

@jamesalexandergrimsl Год назад

Thanks so much for this video! I just wanted to mention something for those watching cos I was panicking when after drying it for a little while the feathers were still clumped together. The dryer DOES do most of the work as explained in the video. I had left mine in there for about 2 hours and it came out nice and puffy 😍

Thank you for the idea of what soap to use and the 3 tennis balls. My Washing machine and Dryer is LG. I make it 2 rinse, and 2 spin at 400 rpm at 20 degrees Celsius. Drying 2x at High at 29 minutes. Looks brand new again.

Very nice and pleasant video. I still don't get what the Tennis balls are really doing if you have to do so much by hands and it seems a lot of work too. I just read another one involving ping pong balls I wonder what's the difference? Thanks for putting this here.

@TheHoudaman Год назад

a year late but the tennis balls basically hit the clumps to help dislodge the feathers from eachother as they dry, same thing as doing it by hand, ping pong balls are the same concept but they seem too light to work imo, i used a hard spikey plastic ball

@takeeglancy6443 2 года назад

@Marian_Rusnak 5 месяцев назад

did you zip in all the zips ? taking it out of the washing machine could have been done more gently. also hanging it out could be more more gentle - not letting large portions hang and but instead rest on the surface of the drier. and would also not squeeze it like that.

Hi, thanks for this I will use these tips in the future. I'm thinking of buying a Macpac down jacket online and wanted to know what size jacket you have and what you recommend on sizing? Sorry this is a bit off the topic

@Katieree 4 года назад

Hi Elleese! Thankyou so much for watching! My jacket is a size 10. I’d say they’re pretty true to size. I would usually wear a size 8 in tops but always go up a size for jackets so I can wear layers underneath 😊 I hope that helps! 💖

@lollygagging7881 3 года назад

Would using/adding conditioner/fabric softener to the cycle help resolve the clumping issue (bcoz the down would dry softer and separated like hair?) 🤷‍♀️

@Katieree 3 года назад

I definitely wouldn’t recommend adding any kind of detergent as this can damage the down. The down won’t clump once it’s dry 🙂

Could it dry and be back to normal without using a dryer ? Or would those clumps stay

@Katieree 3 года назад

You can do it without a dryer but it will take a really long time to dry. Once it’s completely dry you should be able to give it a gentle shake or use your hands to separate the clumps. They won’t separate if they’re still wet! 🌻

@partyonurpussy 2 года назад

So what happens if you already washed the down vest using regular Tide detergent pods the watched your video? It was clumpy when I removed it so I let it hang dry then put it in the dryer with racquet balls on the delicate setting 3 or 4 times. It came out all fluffy but is there going to be an issue with mold or bird flu or something since I used regular detergent? Also I went to watch your Instagram posts but it looks like you changed the account name from the one you give here ….what happened?

@nazareth6262 2 года назад

@sharmanitascos 2 года назад

You're jacket should be fine but you may have damaged the feathers inside with the detergent you used because they may have been stripped of certain porteins etc, its kind of like if you washed your hair with very harsh soap. But this is probably still fine because most of the warmthIin down jackets comes from the air pockets created etc

Hey Brandon! I personally have not tried this without a dryer however I imagine it would be achievable. You would need to regularly go in and break up the clumps of feathers throughout the drying process. Keep in mind your jacket would probably take days to dry without using a dryer.

Hey Susan, I’m sorry to hear this! Never fear though.. provided you used a gentle detergent, once the down has dried it will fluff back up 🙂 hang it in the shade somewhere and give it a gentle shake every now and then. It will be back to normal in no time ❤️

@noahcook2079 3 года назад

@@Katieree hi I used one of those pods you throw in with it, was that bad?

@Katieree 3 года назад

I wouldn’t recommend using a normal detergent as it can damage the down. But that doesn’t mean it definitely will. Let it dry and then reassess 😊 Keep in mind it is likely to take a very long time to air dry - possibly a week or more! If you have access to a laundromat you may wish to use one of their dryers to speed up the process. Goodluck! ❤️

Kate Polizzi I use the ember down jacket from macpac cause here it gets pretty cold in nsw on the border of nsw and vic around -15 on a cold day lowest it was here was -22 so you need to be warm to survive not like in Melbourne where comfortable is needed here it’s for survival and it roughly takes 5 days to clean the jacket and dry it so yeah a lot different stuff
