- Is the Therme warm enough for below-freezing winters?
- Yes for typical city cold, especially layered over a sweater. It is a town coat, not a mountaineering layer, so pair it with a midlayer in deep cold.
- Is it actually waterproof?
- The Gore-Tex shell is waterproof and windproof, and the seams are sealed. The down fill stays dry in rain, unlike untreated down jackets.
- How does it fit?
- It has a straight, roomy cut that layers over a sweater or blazer. Slim buyers may want to size down.
- How should I wash a down jacket like this?
- Use a down-specific detergent, front-load or hand wash, and tumble dry low with dryer balls to restore loft. Avoid regular detergent and fabric softener.
- When is the best time to buy it?
- Down jackets usually discount at the end of winter and during mid-season sales. At $800 at Nordstrom as of November 7, 2026, it is at full price, so waiting for a markdown can save money.
