FAQs
Is the hood helmet-compatible?
The hood is designed for general hiking use and adjustment; it may not accommodate large climbing helmets.
What does 10K/10K mean?
This refers to a hydrostatic head rating of 10,000mm for waterproofing and a breathability rating of 10,000g/m2/24h.
Can I wear this in winter?
Yes, it functions well as a waterproof outer shell, but you should layer appropriately underneath as it is not an insulated jacket.
How should I wash it?
Use a specialized technical gear detergent on a gentle cycle, then rinse thoroughly. Never use bleach or fabric softeners.
Is this jacket packable?
Yes, the 2.5-layer material is designed to be lightweight and compressible, making it easy to store in a backpack.
Troubleshooting
Water soaking into the outer fabric
The DWR coating has worn off. Wash the jacket and re-apply a DWR waterproofing treatment spray.
Condensation building up inside the jacket
Open the underarm ventilation zips to increase airflow or remove an excess base layer to reduce internal moisture.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of the DRYEDGE membrane, keep the jacket clean by washing it in a front-loading machine on a gentle cycle with a technical detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can clog the pores of the waterproof membrane. For the best results, tumble dry the jacket on low heat or air dry it, then occasionally re-apply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray to the exterior fabric once the surface no longer beads water. Ensure all zippers are fully closed during storage to maintain the structural integrity of the waterproof seals.
