FAQs

What does 'Isotex 30000' mean?

Isotex 30000 refers to the fabric's performance rating, indicating it is waterproof to a hydrostatic head of 30,000mm and breathable to 30,000g/m²/24 hours. This signifies high-level protection against heavy rain and excellent breathability.

How do I ensure the jacket remains waterproof?

Regular washing with mild detergent and occasional re-application of a DWR finish will help maintain its waterproof properties. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach, as these can damage the fabric's performance.

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

The jacket is designed for protection against water and wind. While it has a mesh lining, it is not heavily insulated. For very cold conditions, layering with warm mid-layers such as fleece or down is recommended.

Can I wear this jacket for casual everyday use?

Yes, you can wear it for casual use. However, its technical design and features are optimized for outdoor activities, so the fit and feel might be more performance-oriented than a typical casual jacket.

What is the purpose of the VisionAlign Hood?

The VisionAlign Hood is engineered to move with your head, providing a wider, unobstructed field of vision while you're active, which is crucial for safety and navigation in outdoor environments.

Are the pockets truly waterproof?

The pockets feature water-repellent zips, which offer significant protection against rain and splashes. For prolonged exposure to heavy rain or submersion, it's advisable to use an internal waterproof pouch for sensitive items.

How should I adjust the hood and hem for best fit?

Use the drawcords at the hem and the adjusters on the hood to create a snug fit. This helps to seal out wind and rain effectively.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is not fully waterproof after some use.

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. Re-apply a DWR treatment according to the product's instructions.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Ensure the zipper is clean and free of debris. Apply a graphite pencil or wax stick along the zipper teeth to lubricate it.

Jacket feels clammy inside during activity.

Open the underarm ventilation zips and the main front zip slightly to increase airflow. Ensure you are wearing breathable base layers.

Hood adjustment is not secure.

Check that the adjusters are properly tightened. Ensure the hood is correctly positioned on your head before adjusting.
