It's cold. How can you survive the long winter without a satisfying down jacket? The following life knowledge editor summarizes several key points of selecting down jacket for you. You should not only be beautiful, but also warm.

        Mistake 1: the higher the cashmere content, the better

        According to the national standard of down clothing, down type, down content and down filling amount must be indicated. Down content refers to the percentage of down and down silk in down. According to the regulations, down content shall not be less than 50%. The higher the down content of the same kind of down jacket, the better the thermal effect. However, general consumers choose 70% - 80% of the cashmere content can meet the demand.

        Mistake 2 thick down jacket is warmer.

        Down filling amount refers to the total weight of all down filled in down jacket. It is related to the size, length and style of the clothes. The national standard does not make any mandatory provisions on this index. But what needs to be reminded is not that the more down is filled and the heavier the clothes are, the more warm the down jacket will be. Because with the increase of filling density, the loss of heat through the filler increases. Improving the fluffy degree of down filler is the key to improve the thermal insulation. The higher the puffiness is, the more insulating air the down contains, so the better the heat insulation performance is. This is why in recent years on the market some light down jacket, warm effect is also very good reason. Some down garments with more down filling content are mixed with feather silk, down silk and crushed wool. Even if the down content is the same, the fluffy degree will decrease. At present, the fluffy degree of down jacket with general price is about 450-500, and that of down jacket with slightly higher price can reach 600-900.

        Mistake 3 down jacket has no feather stem to feel, the softer the better.

        In fact, it is very normal for high-quality down to contain a certain limit of tiny hair stalks. If it feels very soft, you can't touch the stem at all, you should be careful to buy such products. Because some manufacturers will be leftovers, fluffy cotton, feathers broken, filled in the clothes, as down to deceive consumers. Not only can not achieve good thermal effect, sanitation may not be up to standard.

        Understand the above several misunderstandings, consumers in the selection is much easier. Here are some tips for judging the quality of down jacket

        First look: see if there are product quality labels, test reports, etc., and whether the down type, down content and down filling amount are clearly marked on the label.

        Second touch: good quality down jacket feels soft to the touch, with a complete piece of hair, but not many feather stalks, at the same time, to ensure that the hair stem is soft.

        Three press: press down the down jacket with your hand and release it immediately. If it rebounds quickly and returns to its original state, the fluffy degree of down is good. Poor resilience, heavy feeling in the hand, it means that the cashmere content is low, or may be mixed with a certain amount of wool flakes or crushed wool.

        Four taps: take a hard pat on the down jacket. If down comes out or dust spills from the stitches, it indicates that the fabric is poor in anti down drilling, or the sewing needle hole is too large, and this kind of down jacket will become thinner and thinner. Some down jacket fabrics do not drill down and are waterproof, but poor air permeability, water vapor is not easy to send out, after washing is not easy to dry, down will be affected by moisture will produce varying degrees of deterioration, or breeding microorganisms, emitting odor

        Five smell: nose close to down jacket, smell carefully, if there is obvious odor or odor, it may be filled with inferior down, it is recommended not to buy.

        Six weigh: weigh the weight of down jacket, comparatively speaking, the lighter the weight, the bigger the better.

        Finally, pay attention to tailoring when purchasing. The more squares are used to fix down, the better. Otherwise, after washing several times, the down may be clumped and drooping like a gourd. People who plan to travel for a long time should choose the down jacket with small size and light weight, which can be compressed in the backpack; for those who need to stay in the cold environment for a long time, it is better to choose a down jacket with long style, wear-resistant fabric, and more pocket to store personal belongings. The hat should have fur edge to prevent wind; and the down jacket vest worn inside should be relatively close to the body.
