Patagonia LW Down Sweater Cardigan - Our FAQs

1. What is the main advantage of a down cardigan over a standard down jacket? The collarless V neck design prevents bunching around your throat, making it much easier to layer under hooded rain coats or heavy coats.
2. How is the down insulation in this garment sourced? Patagonia uses only 100% Responsible Down Standard certified down, which guarantees strict animal welfare standards throughout the production process.
3. Will this cardigan keep me dry if it starts raining? The recycled nylon outer face is treated with a water repellent coating that easily deflects mist and light rain.
4. How compressible is this piece for travel? Thanks to the 800 fill power down, it packs down into a tiny footprint inside your backpack or weekend holdall.
5. How do I restore the insulation loft after washing it? Tumble drying on low heat with a couple of tennis balls helps separate damp down feathers and restores full fluffiness.
