Product Information

Full details

Its key benefit is advanced 10K WeatherTite waterproofing and breathability, keeping you dry without overheating.

FAQs

What does '10K Waterproof' mean?

A 10K rating indicates the jacket can withstand 10,000 millimeters of water pressure before leaking. It signifies good protection against moderate rain.

What is the benefit of the DWR treatment?

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) treatment causes water to bead up and roll off the fabric surface, preventing the outer material from becoming saturated and helping to maintain breathability.

Can I wear this jacket in very cold weather?

This jacket is primarily designed for waterproofing and wind resistance. For cold weather, layering with insulating garments underneath is recommended.

How do I clean the jacket?

Follow the care label instructions. Generally, machine wash on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent and air dry or tumble dry on low heat. Avoid fabric softeners or bleach.

Is the hood adjustable?

The jacket features a foldaway hood for convenient storage. While not explicitly stated as adjustable with drawcords, the design aims for a functional fit. Check the product specifics for any additional adjustment features.

What material is the jacket made of?

The shell is made of 100% Nylon, and the lining is 100% Polyester.

How many pockets does it have?

The jacket features four pockets for practical storage.

Troubleshooting

Jacket not beading water effectively anymore

The DWR treatment may have worn off. Clean the jacket and reapply a suitable DWR waterproofing spray or wash-in treatment according to product instructions.

Feeling damp inside the jacket

This could be due to high internal humidity from strenuous activity or the jacket reaching its breathability limit. Ensure the main zipper and any ventilation features are open, and consider if the activity level exceeds the jacket's intended use.

Hood is difficult to fold or adjust

Check for any obstructions or internal toggles that may need to be secured or loosened. Ensure the hood is fully dried after use before folding it away.
