Caring for ALTOS Down-Filled Mummy Sleeping BagsUpdated 3 months ago

Our ALTOS Down-Filled Mummy Sleeping Bags offer excellent warmth and packability, but they require special care to maintain their insulation and performance. Proper maintenance will help extend the life of your bag and keep it adventure-ready.

Cleaning & Maintenance

  • We recommend spot cleaning your bag with a warm, damp cloth to remove dirt or stains. Washing a down sleeping bag will void the warranty, and improper cleaning can cause the down fill to clump, reducing its insulation.
  • If a full wash is necessary, the best method is handwashing in a bathtub with warm water and a small amount of mild detergent. Agitate gently, rinse thoroughly, and air dry—preferably in the sun.
  • If you choose to machine wash, use a front-loading washer on a gentle cycle with a detergent made specifically for down. Avoid top-loading washers, as they can damage the bag.
  • Air drying is the safest way to dry your ALTOS sleeping bag. If using a dryer, choose a commercial-size dryer on low heat and add tennis balls to help break up any clumps and restore loft.

By following these care instructions, your ALTOS Down-Filled Mummy Sleeping Bag will continue to provide optimal warmth and comfort on all your adventures!
