Revive your down jacket or sleeping bag’s performance with Nikwax Down Wash Direct—the specialist cleaner engineered to restore water repellency and insulation without harsh chemicals. Dirty down traps moisture, causing clumping and heat loss up to 25x faster than dry gear. Unlike regular detergents that leave water-attracting residues, this PFAS-free formula safely removes oils and grime while revitalizing Durable Water Repellency (DWR) on both hydrophobic and standard down fills.
Why does it matter? When dirt compromises your gear’s outer fabric, rain and sweat seep in, destroying loft and warmth. Nikwax Down Wash Direct tackles this by deeply cleansing in your washing machine—no rinsing needed—and reactivating natural water resistance so your down stays breathable and dry in damp conditions. Perfect for reviving Nikwax Hydrodown™, Hydrophobic Down™, or any down-filled item after muddy hikes or sweaty adventures.
Skip generic laundry soaps that ruin DWR! This hydrophobic down cleaner ensures thorough, gentle care while preventing weight gain and insulation loss. For best results: wash on gentle cycle, spin-dry slowly, then tumble-dry thoroughly to restore loft. Keep your gear lighter, warmer, and ready for backcountry expeditions—all while extending its lifespan responsibly. Trust the expert solution trusted by outdoor enthusiasts worldwide for machine-washable down revival.
