Compared with buying a new down jacket, it can basically save half the money, so now many people choose to renovate the old down jacket.

However, in the process of refurbishment, there are many tricks. The China Consumers Association (China Consumers Association) issued a warning that the phenomenon of poor down quality and shoddyness has become a hidden rule in customizing the down apparel industry. Consumers need to be vigilant. .

China Consumers Association said that the poor fabric is a common problem in the renovation of down jackets and custom shops. Before customizing down jackets, businesses generally tell consumers that the cashmere content is more than 90%, but in fact, there are very few down jackets in the market that meet this standard. The national down apparel standard specifies that the express value of down cashmere should not be less than 50%. Many down jackets that are used in down jacket renovations and customized small shops do not meet this standard.

At the same time, the cost of fabrics for custom-built and refurbished down garments is extremely low, and the cost of fabrics for a down jacket is only 30-40 yuan, which is better if only 50-60 yuan each.

Reporter yesterday visited the city down jacket renovation shop learned that the current price of refurbished down jacket is basically between 200 to 300 yuan, the price of custom down jacket in the 400 ~ 500 yuan.

During the refurbishment, people cut corners and work, and the consumers did not pay attention. To replace the good feathers in the original clothes with those of the poor ones was another trick in the down jacket renovation industry. China Consumers Association introduced that the use of large brands of down is relatively good, therefore, many shops on the sensation, or cut corners when filling down, deducted a little down, or steal the column, with a good feather down replaced with a good down.

In response to the above three issues, the China Consumers Association reminds consumers that before refurbishing, it is advisable to take down and keep their own food until the coat is finished. Then the consumer supervises the processing and filling the velvet seal, and leaves some “samples” in advance. When taking clothes, it is best to ask for formal bills so that there is no basis for rights protection when disputes arise.
