Washing Down Gear Is More Important Than You Think!
In this video, I talk about down insulation, and specifically, why and how it needs to be washed. You should do it once every season or every other season, depending on how often you use your down sleeping bags and down puffy jackets. Washing down insulation restores its fluffiness and restores its insulating ability to nearly how it was when you first received it. Use this guide to wash down sleeping bags, down puffy jackets, and other down gear.
