How to choose a men's down jacket
First, consider the filling: down is lightweight and very warm, while synthetic padding dries faster and handles moisture better. Next, look at the fit: short for city wear, mid-length to cover the hips, sleeveless for layering. The size of the down jacket should be taken with a sweater underneath.
Men's down jackets, coats and vests
Men's coats take over for office attire, sleeveless vests provide a lighter layer, and down jackets also include women's models: the down jacket or coat is chosen based on the outfit.
Men's down jacket colours: black, navy blue, khaki or bright colours
Black and navy blue go with everything; khaki and beige suit casual outfits; orange, red or bright green stand out from afar in the mountains. A black men's down jacket pairs well with raw denim, while a khaki down jacket goes with cargo pants.
Long down jacket, black down jacket and men's hooded down jacket
The long men's down jacket, which reaches mid-thigh, covers a suit jacket and offers better wind protection. The black men's down jacket matches everything, from office wear to joggers. The hooded down jacket, whether fixed or removable, replaces a hat in light rain. The shiny down jacket, made from lacquered fabric, and the white down jacket are more noticeable.

Frequently asked questions about men's down jackets
What size of men's down jacket should I take?
Your usual size for a down jacket worn over a thin sweater, one size up if wearing over a thick sweatshirt. The sleeves should cover the wrist when arms are extended: the right size allows shoulder movement.
How to wash a down jacket?
In the machine, on a delicate cycle at low temperature, with special down detergent, then in the tumble dryer at low temperature with two tennis balls, which restore fluffiness. Follow the care label: the down must dry completely.
Down or synthetic: what to choose?
Down is lighter and warmer at equivalent thickness; synthetic insulation retains heat better when wet and dries faster. For frequent rain, a synthetic down jacket is a safer choice.
How to wear a sleeveless men's down jacket?
Over a hooded sweatshirt, flannel shirt or sweater, with jeans or chinos. Under an open jacket or coat, it adds a warm layer without restricting arm movement.
How to store a down jacket in summer?
Clean and completely dry, hung up or folded without being compressed, in a fabric bag rather than plastic. When compressed for months, the filling loses its loft.
