FAQs
Is the jacket waterproof?
It features DryFlight technology designed for wind and water resistance, making it suitable for light to moderate rain, but it is not classified as fully waterproof.
What does a WarmFlight 2/3 rating mean?
This rating indicates that the jacket provides a medium level of insulation, offering a good balance of warmth and low bulk for diverse conditions.
Can I wear this in deep winter?
It is best used as a standalone jacket for cool weather or as a layering piece under a heavier shell during extreme cold.
How should I store the jacket?
Store it hanging on a sturdy hanger in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the shape and insulation quality.
Is the hood adjustable?
The jacket includes an integrated hood designed to provide a comfortable fit for most users.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels less warm over time
The insulation may be compressed from improper washing; tumble dry on low with dryer balls to restore loft.
Water is soaking into the fabric rather than beading off
The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating may have worn off; apply a technical fabric water-repellent spray.
Pros and Cons

- Stylish design suitable for urban and outdoor settings

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Since this is an apparel item, there is no technical setup required; however, proper care is essential to preserve the DryFlight technology and the loft of the insulation. Always check the internal care label for specific washing instructions. Generally, it is recommended to machine wash on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can compromise the moisture-wicking and water-repellent properties of the fabric. For drying, a tumble dry on low heat with clean tennis balls can help redistribute the insulation, preventing clumping and maintaining the jacket's structural integrity over time.
