Description
Description
Down is a brilliant insulator - until it gets wet or grimy, causing down to clump, lose loft, and absorb water. When your down gear starts feeling heavy, flat, or cold, it’s time to wash it right - Nikwax Down Wash Direct is a purpose-built, technical cleaner designed to revitalise the water repellency and insulation of down. It keeps your down gear in top form by safely removing dirt and body oils from the outer fabric and fill, restoring loft, breathability and the ability to shed water.
Use it in your washing machine for thorough, even cleaning, and tumble dry for best results (if care label allows, according to manufacturers instructions on a low setting until “clumps” have disappeared).
Whether you’re prepping your winter gear for another season or freshening up a favourite puffer, this easy-to-use, PFC-free wash is a safe and reliable way to maintain warmth, reduce weight gain, and extend the life of your gear.
