Product care
  • Hand washable at home — TAION design their down to be washed by hand rather than dry cleaned.
  • Use lukewarm water below 30°C with slightly less neutral detergent than the pack recommends.
  • Submerge and press gently about 20 times — press, don't rub — then soak for around 30 minutes.
  • Rinse in clean water, changing it each time, until no bubbles remain; leftover detergent makes down clump.
  • Don't wring. Put it in a laundry bag and spin for about one minute only.
  • Break up the down by hand before drying, then hang to dry in a well-ventilated, shaded spot.
  • Do not tumble dry — TAION warn it can damage the garment or cause it to lose shape.
Size & fit

TAION make these in unisex sizing, so the size on the tag isn't a men's or a women's size. TAION advise that women size down one to two sizes from what they'd normally take.

TAION also note their sizing runs small overall. Read the two together: the cut is lean, so check the flat measurements rather than the letter on the label, and allow room if you plan to wear this over a jumper rather than a tee.

  • Unisex sizing — the tag size is not a men's or women's size.
  • Women: TAION recommend sizing down 1–2 sizes from your usual women's size.
  • TAION note the sizing runs small overall.
  • Slim, low-bulk cut that layers under a coat easily — avoid over-sizing if that's how you'll wear it.
  • Check the flat measurements in the size chart rather than the letter size.
