"A puffer jacket hung in a shower gets a scrub down with liquid detergent and a cleaning mitt."

The science

  1. Soap can lift surface soil

    A suitable detergent can remove oils from the shell fabric, but the clip does not identify the detergent or jacket care instructions.

  2. Fill can hold water

    Thorough wetting without a controlled rinse and dry can leave clumped insulation or lingering moisture inside the jacket.

  3. Follow the care label

    Use the jacket maker's wash and dry instructions; allow enough time to dry the fill completely before storage or use.

Do this instead

Send it to a laundromat. This is not a checkout task.
