What is downtek? Would this bag work for a person with allergy to goose down? And also, can this bag be washed and dried in home washer/dryer? — 1 Answer

Hello there,
Downtek™ is down that has been treated with a DWR and renders the down hydrophobic. All of the down in our products is RDS certified. Big Agnes products contain their PFC-free formula which uses bluesign® approved chemistry. https://down-tek.com/
While we do not use any goose down in Big Agnes products, I am not familiar with the intricacies of goose down allergies and cannot make any recommendations on that question.
Yes, this bag can be washed and dried. Here is a link to our Big Agnes page that gives you step by step instructions on how to wash and dry your sleeping bag https://support.bigagnes.com/hc/en-us/articles/115003631208-How-To-Wash-Your-Bag.
