Benefits

disadvantages

• over time, the filler begins to climb out of the product;
• products with natural down can prickle the skin;
• dense fabric does not pass air;
• not suitable for people with allergies.

These problems are more likely to concern products of dubious quality that are sold on the market. If you get a down jacket of a well-known brand that monitors the quality of its products, you are unlikely to encounter such problems.

To prevent the natural filler from tingling the skin, make sure that it contains at least 80% fluff and only 20% feathers. If you want your skin to breathe, choose a product from a breathable membrane. In case you are allergic, choose a product with high-quality artificial filler that is not inferior to natural in its heat-insulating properties.

With inserts. Popular models with leather, suede and fur accents. They look very impressive and stylish, so they are suitable for urban everyday life, and for going to work.

Short. Shortened jackets end in the lumbar region without covering the hips. They are suitable for slim fashionistas and modern avtolyedi. So that it can be combined with any clothing, choose a model that looks like a jacket. And lovers of active sports will like cropped jackets in a sporty style.

Materials unusual for us that look very elegant are in fashion. This is tweed, cashmere, wool, fabric with a metallic sheen. But you should forget about nylon, it is only appropriate on ski jackets.

Fur, in any of its manifestations, also does not go out of fashion. For example, in the collections of Stella McCartney, which does not use natural materials to create clothes, you can find decent down jackets with faux fur. They are suitable for those who share the views of the "green" on the use of animal skins in clothing.

If you want your down jacket to serve more than one season, choose a product with high-quality filler.

1. Natural fluff. Very warm filler that retains heat well. The air that is between the filler fibers is heated by the heat of your body, creating a warm air layer. Sometimes it gets into lumps after washing, but it is not difficult to reanimate it, distributing the fluff over the jacket back.
2. Natural feathers. The filler is not very high quality, which will be bad to warm, get out of the jacket and prick. It is categorically not suitable for winter, it can be worn only in the spring-autumn period.
3. Hollofiber. Very light and warm filler of high quality. When washing, it does not lose its heat-insulating properties, does not stray into lumps. Suitable for people with allergies.
4. Synthetic winterizer. A popular budget material that is often found in winter jackets. However, it does not retain heat very well, therefore it is not suitable for severe frosts. But it is easily erased and dries quickly enough.

The color scheme of modern down jackets is diverse. In the collections of famous designers you can find models of emerald, orange, purple, burgundy. More complex shades are also popular: pearl gray, rose quartz, linden color, indigo.

The undisputed favorite is a white down jacket that looks very impressive.Of course, it is very easily soiled and is not suitable for daily trips in public transport, but it will not hurt to have it as a backup option.

The most diverse colors are in fashion: camouflage, cage, strip, floral and animal print, surrealistic motifs and abstraction. Young girls should pay attention to models that combine at least two contrasting colors.

Down jackets with prints of state flags, with military emblems and stripes look especially successful. They add zest to any image and will appeal to those who are used to always being in the spotlight.

Shortened down jackets can also be voluminous, inflated. Due to the wide elastic at the waist, some of them resemble insulated bombers. Such a jacket is a great fashionable solution for girls with slim long legs.

Ski jackets are a classic sport that does not go out of fashion, anyway, in this season they are very popular. Choose a volumetric model just below the buttocks with a large fur hood. This jacket is ideal for a ski resort, but it can also be worn in the city. A game in contrast looks especially interesting - a tight-fitting skinny or stocking dress and a massive oversized ski jacket.

When choosing a down jacket, you need to focus on four main criteria:

1. Type of filler;
2. Product quality;
3. The functionality of the selected model;
4. Suitable style.

Perhaps it’s worth starting with the style - if the model does not suit you or does not like, it makes no sense to look at the quality.

Owners of the figure “apple” fit the fitted model with diagonal stripes or inserts at the waist, which will create the effect of the figure “hourglass”. Avoid short models with a belt and patch pockets.

Girls - "pears" fit down jackets with a belt at the waist and an unusual shape of the bottom. Asymmetric bottom visually distracts attention from imperfections. Avoid models with tightening elements on the hem; the bottom should be flat or slightly flared.

Short girls with a boyish figure will suit short down jackets, maximum to the middle of the thigh. He will open slender legs, visually make them longer, and the silhouette is taller. Avoid models with long sleeves and voluminous shoulders, they will look comical on you. Better pay attention to the shortened sleeves that accentuate your fragile wrists.

If the down jacket suits you externally, check its quality and be sure to read the information about the "stuffing".You can familiarize yourself with the popular types of filler above, choose the one whose characteristics are most suitable for you.

Pay attention to the quality of the fittings, it must be of high quality. At a good manufacturer in the kit you will find a bag with spare buttons, buttons and other elements.

The seams on the down jacket should be even and strong, no threads sticking out. If the lining is also quilted, this is a guarantee that the filler will not stray and fall off during wear.

As for the functionality of the model you have chosen, it’s good if the hood and fur trim come unfastened. The presence of internal pockets and an additional removable lining will not be superfluous.

If one of the above criteria does not suit you, feel free to refuse the purchase! Products of inadequate quality or style that is not suitable for you are not worth the money spent.

In order for the down jacket to serve you as long as possible, it requires proper care. Washing is carried out at a temperature not exceeding 40 degrees. It is impossible to soak it, it should be in water as little as possible. Therefore, try to choose a quick wash mode, having previously removed strong soiling manually. Use a gentle stain remover for this, and for washing, use an antibacterial agent that will prevent various microorganisms from multiplying in the filler.

Now you are familiar with fashion trends, popular styles and colors of down jackets. Thanks to the most important selection criteria, you can purchase a high-quality, stylish and fashionable product that will last you for many years!
