Winter is coming. With all kinds of down jackets, how can you choose the one that is warm and suitable for you? Here is a guide to buying down jackets for you!

Whether you choose a down jacket is good or bad, it is related to the vital interests of consumers, and it may also have adverse effects on human health. When purchasing, you should pay special attention to the following aspects:

Down content and filling amount: You should choose the down content and filling amount that suits your needs. The down content of down jackets is generally 70% or above, which has a certain degree of fluffiness and softness. The amount of filling is related to the warmth of the down jacket, which should be determined according to your wearing needs.

Resilience: If you press a fluffy down jacket and then release it, it will bounce back quickly and return to its original shape, which means the down is very fluffy.

Anti-down penetration performance: The lining of down products should have anti-down penetration performance. If you find down penetrating through the surface of the down product, it is definitely a poor product. Due to the smooth nature of down, it is normal for a small amount of down to penetrate through the seams.

Breathability: Down jackets cannot be penetrated by down, but they must have a certain degree of breathability. For example, if the fabric, lining, and lining of down jackets have poor breathability, the first is that the water vapor is not easy to dissipate during wearing, causing dampness and discomfort and lack of warmth. The second is that it is not easy to dry after washing. The above two factors will cause the down to deteriorate to varying degrees under damp conditions and emit a bad smell.

Smell: smell it, hold the down product close to you and take a deep breath, smell the odor inside, and avoid buying products with strong pungent odors. However, since it is animal feathers, it is normal to have a certain odor.

Accessories: A down jacket has many accessories, such as zippers, metal buckles, etc., see whether they are beautiful, smooth, and of appropriate tightness.
