Alexandra Filiova, a dermatologist and expert at the "Hemotest" laboratory, has advised choosing winter clothes with natural fillings. When choosing a down jacket, she recommends paying attention not only to the style and color, but also to the outer fabric and lining. "Synthetic materials do not get wet and do not let in drafts, while keeping you warm," Filiova noted.
According to her, a membrane significantly increases the fabric's resistance to moisture, and microfiber retains heat excellently. Natural fillings such as down and feathers provide good protection against the cold, added the doctor. Earlier, Dmitry Kicha, a technologist and expert at the Sneaknfresh dry cleaning network, explained how to take care of down clothing to extend its lifespan.
