Winter jackets do not have to be bought only in winter. It depends on the geographical location where you are or the one you are going to visit. Mostly people use this type of garment in autumn, on the other hand, in northern European countries they can be used even in summer.

We take out our winter jackets with temperatures below 15º C. Although this will also depend on other factors such as humidity, wind or how cold we are.

What are the alternatives to the winter jacket?

Today there is nothing that equals the benefits of a winter jacket, but we can choose other options such as rain jacket, cropped varsity jacket and thermal clothing.

What is the best way to store a winter jacket?

We have different ways of doing it, but if what we want is not to take up space at home, then the best solution is to use vacuum bags for clothes. Yes, yes, as you read it. There is no other form of storage that occupies less space than this, yes; you must have a vacuum cleaner and the vacuum bags themselves.

To keep it in perfect condition, do not leave the jacket in the bag for many months and, if possible, fold it correctly before inserting it. This technique is also very useful to carry the jacket in the suitcase without taking up much space. You can apply same technique to store your off white varsity jacket mens.

How to wash a winter jacket?

First of all, we must take into account the material of the jacket. If the material is natural, it is recommended to treat it more delicately than synthetic ones. Here are some examples of how to wash a jacket depending on its material:

Woollen coats:

The first thing we will have to do is remove the lint that the coat may contain, in this way we will not damage the washing machine. Then we will turn the garment over, so that the inside of the jacket is on the outside.

Select a program for woolen garments, in case you do not have this program, you can use the one for delicate garments.

As it is a natural material, we must wash it with cold or lukewarm water, without exceeding 30º C.

Once washed, we recommend letting the jacket dry with an unclosed fabric cover, in this way moisture will not accumulate.

Down jacket:

First of all, we must close the jacket before inserting it inside the washing machine.

We recommend adding other clothes to balance the washing machine load.

For down jackets, it should not exceed 30ºC.

The program that we must use is the microfiber or eco program.

For drying, it is recommended to use the dryer so that it can absorb the moisture from the feathers. If we do not have a dryer, we will let it dry on the clothesline.
