What does 'unisex sizing' mean for this jacket?

Unisex sizing means the jacket is designed to fit both men and women. It often features a more relaxed fit and adjustable elements like drawcords to accommodate different body shapes.

Troubleshooting

Jacket does not feel completely waterproof.

Ensure all seams are fully taped and that zips are fully closed. Check for any damage to the fabric or seam tape. Reapply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment if the fabric appears to be 'wetting out'.

Jacket feels clammy inside.

This can be due to high humidity or strenuous activity exceeding the breathability rating. Ensure the back vents are open and adjust the hood and hem to allow for better airflow.

The packable pocket is difficult to use.

Ensure the jacket is folded neatly and compactly before attempting to stuff it into its designated pocket. Practice folding and stuffing a few times to become familiar with the process.

Zips are stiff or difficult to move.

Clean the zip teeth gently with a soft brush and water. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or wax to the zip track. Avoid using excessive force.
