FAQs

Is the hood detachable?

Yes, the hood is detachable for added versatility.

What is the visibility rating of this jacket?

The jacket meets EN ISO 20471:2013 Class 3 standards for high visibility.

Can this jacket be worn with a helmet?

Yes, the hood is designed to be helmet-compatible, providing safety and coverage when worn with a safety helmet.

How many times can I wash this jacket?

The care instructions recommend a maximum of 20 washes to maintain the integrity of the materials and performance features.

What kind of detergent should I use?

It is recommended to use liquid detergent and to avoid fabric softeners, as they can affect the water-repellent properties.

How do I ensure the water repellency lasts?

Tumble drying on a low heat setting after washing helps reactivate the water-repellent treatment. Reapplication of a suitable water-repellent spray may be beneficial over time.

What insulation standards does this jacket meet?

The jacket meets EN 342:2017 standards for cold protection, with an Icler rating of 0,333 m²K/W(B) (2,15 clo).

Troubleshooting

Jacket not repelling water effectively

Ensure the jacket has been tumble dried on low heat to reactivate the water-repellent treatment. Consider reapplying a PFC-free water-repellent spray if performance continues to degrade after multiple washes and drying cycles.

Hood adjustment is difficult

Check that the drawcords are not tangled. Ensure all zippers are fully closed. The hood is designed to be adjusted while wearing a helmet, so some initial adjustment may be needed.

Zipper is stiff or stuck

Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper teeth. Use a graphite pencil or a silicone-based lubricant on the zipper teeth if necessary. Ensure zippers are clean before washing.

Jacket feels less warm than expected

Verify that the jacket is properly zipped and that the hem and cuffs are adjusted snugly to prevent drafts. Ensure that the inner lining is dry. For extreme cold, consider layering with additional insulating garments.
