Down leakage is a perfectly normal occurrence, especially when the garment is new or recently washed. The fabrics used are down proof, but there are situations in which the down will appear to be leaking through your fabric.
This is because the down is usually a mix of 90% down and 10% feathers. The feathers within the down possess sharp quills and these are the bits that can work their way through the fabric. A small amount of down escaping
through the fabric or through any seam line is expected and common in any down garment, particularly early on. Down is exceptionally fine and can work itself through small openings.
If you do see some down or a feather poking through the fabric do NOT pull it through the fabric. Try to pull the down or feather back inside the jacket and then gently rub the area between your fingers. Pulling the cluster
through the jacket may cause an even bigger hole to develop. Gently rubbing the area where the down or feather was poking through will move the fabric strands back together, helping to seal up the opening.
