Drying the sleeping bag after washing
Dying in the fresh air:
Carefully lift the wet item from the tub. It will weigh many times its weight due to the
soaked filling, thereby increasing the risk of the seams ripping. The product should,
therefore, be laid out flat to dry rather than being hung up.
Down clumps together when wet:
This means that it should be squeezed out hourly at first during the drying process
(which can take up to three days depending on the temperature and filling weight) and
then shaken out two to three times daily to redistribute the down evenly within the
chambers.
How and where to store the sleeping bag
Never store your sleeping bag compressed in a packsack for extended periods, but rather
loosely packed or hung on a hanger. A large air-permeable bag, e.g. a pillowcase, can be
used. Store the sleeping bag in a dry room.
