HIGH ALPINE GEAR AND NEXT-GEN ELEVATED DESIGNS
ALLIED DOWN
Every element of the Bering Down’s development, performance and materials was carefully considered and assembled with an eye to creating the ultimate jacket for extreme weather conditions from Hokkaido to Tromsø.
The 850-fill ALLIED Down is one of the highest performing, and stands as the benchmark for sustainability.
ExpeDRY is ALLIED DOWN’s innovative ultra dry down featuring FUZE® technology for a chemical free alternative to hydrophobic-treated down.
ExpeDRY works through a permanent and chemical-free bonding of non- toxic gold particles to the down cluster which aid in the evaporation of water molecules, causing the down to dry faster and stay dry in high humidity and extreme conditions.
CARE FOR YOUR BERING DOWN
STEP 1 - Place inside garment bag and fully close bag before washing.
* If possible, pre-rinse products without detergent. This helps to saturate the items allowing the detergent to penetrate the fabrics more effectively and get to the down clusters to clean them thoroughly.
STEP 2 - Low Temp, Delicate Wash
Wash on warm/low temperature and a gentle cycle.
There is a greater likelihood that the fabrics will require a lower temperature
than the down itself. This also saves energy when it is not needed.
STEP 3 - Additional Rinse
Following wash, run an additional rinse without detergent. This will ensure that all detergent was completely rinsed out of the down and the product. Leaving residual detergent on the down may cause a
reduction in fill power.
STEP 4 - Tumble Dry
Tumble dry on low temperature until completely dry with clean tennis balls or a clean shoe.
If you think the item is dry, it is worth running one last dry cycle. Many people assume it is dry by the feel of the textile, but the down inside remains slightly damp. This may take several cycles. It is not possible to over-dry in a home laundry machine, and is always better to err on the side of dry with down insulation.
It may be obvious, but do not bleach or iron your down filled products.
We also generally recommend against dry cleaning, but if that is necessary
because of certain trims on the item, it is recommended to use an eco-friendly
dry cleaner who has experience with down filled products.
