Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this jacket machine washable?

Yes, but use a technical cleaner and avoid fabric softeners to protect the ARED 15/15 membrane.

Does it provide warmth in winter?

It is a waterproof shell, not an insulated jacket. It should be layered with fleece or thermal base layers for warmth.

What is the purpose of the wired hood peak?

The wired peak allows you to shape the hood to shield your face from heavy rain while maintaining clear vision.

Is the jacket fully waterproof?

Yes, it features fully taped seams and a 15,000mm water column rating for high-level protection.

Can I use this for night hiking?

Yes, the integrated reflective details are designed to increase your visibility in low-light conditions.

Troubleshooting

Water is soaking through the outer fabric

The DWR finish may be worn out. Wash the jacket and apply a fresh DWR water-repellent treatment to restore beading.

Feeling damp inside the jacket

Ensure you are using appropriate moisture-wicking base layers. If humidity is very high, the breathability limit may be reached; open the back vent for extra airflow.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Lightweight and packable for easy storage
  • High waterproof and breathability ratings
  • Includes UV 50+ sun protection
  • Reflective detailing enhances safety
  • Durable, abrasion-resistant polyester construction

Cons

  • Not intended for extreme cold insulation
  • Requires proper care to maintain DWR finish
  • Limited to specific sizing options

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For optimal performance, ensure the back adjuster on the hood is pulled taut to maintain visibility and prevent the hood from blowing back in high winds. Regarding care, always wash the jacket in cool water with technical garment cleaners—avoid standard fabric softeners as these can clog the pores of the waterproof membrane and strip the DWR finish. Periodically, you may need to re-apply a DWR spray treatment if you notice water stopping 'beading' on the surface of the fabric. The jacket is designed to be worn over technical base layers or thin mid-layers due to its athletic cut.
