はじめに
The feathers in a down jacket need to be held in place or else they’ll all slide to the bottom of the jacket, leaving your upper torso and shoulders without insulation. The easiest method to prevent this is simply sewing the jacket’s outer and inner fabrics together with seams to keep the feathers from shifting about. While this type of construction solves the problem of feather migration, the seams and corresponding holes in the fabric allow moisture and cold air to penetrate the jacket, decreasing the down’s insulating efficiency. Many Patagonia jackets incorporate internal baffles to keep the down from shifting. The baffle acts like a shelf inside your jacket to hold the down insulation while eliminating the need for seams that pierce both the internal and external fabric. While this is a more complicated construction method, the performance of the finished jacket is greatly improved.This guide shows you how to repair a non-lined portion of your jacket. If you’re not sure whether or not you jacket is lined, or you have a lined jacket, complete our Opening a Patagonia Down Jacket Guide before you follow the steps in this guide.

I could never do this myself. Is there any talented seamster or seamstress out there who has done this before and would like to do my repair for a fee?
Can one buy matching fabric from patagonia?

Yes, this seems overwhelming. Patagonia, please sell simple, iron-on supplies in your colors. This would be a GENIUS move. I just bought a used Down Sweater for a mere $30 and need to repair 2 holes. My plan is to stitch them tight with a needle & thread in a similar color (it's Viking Blue), but was hoping for a SIMPLE patch solution on here. None exists. Most of us don't have time for replacing baffles, and aren't looking for perfection. Matching colors would be awesome. As would a clear patch that will last through a lifetime of washes, and has Patagonia's seal of approval. I bet you could come out with a line of simple fix-it products. Even if iron-on solutions only last for say, 10 washes or something. Give busy, working moms like me who rely on your outerwear easier solutions so we can continue to buy used and keep up the green circle, so your products continue to see many years of life. :)
