When we already have a warm jacket or a sleeping bag, we want it to stay with us for longer. For this purpose, it is necessary to properly maintain it - storage and washing. It happens that we make many mistakes in this matter. We asked an expert for advice - Wojtek Kłapcia from PAJAK , which has been specializing in the production of clothes filled with goose down for many years. We usually fold the jacket and roll up the sleeping bag, often even tying it with something extra to put it in the cover. As it turns out, this is a big mistake. Wojtek Kłapcia advises never to fold or roll up a jacket or a sleeping bag . Why? Because we usually fold and roll in the same way. This results in a permanent deformation on the fabric (like a hem in trousers) and in the insulation. This creates a permanent thermal bridge that runs exactly along the longitudinal axis of symmetry in the case of a sleeping bag or at the folds of the jacket.
