FAQs
Is this jacket machine washable?
Yes, it can be machine washed using mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners as they can damage the waterproof coating.
What does Isotex 20000 mean?
Isotex 20000 refers to the technical standard of the fabric, indicating high levels of waterproof protection and breathability suitable for heavy rain.
Can the hood be adjusted?
Yes, the jacket features an adjustable hood to ensure a snug fit that stays in place during high winds.
Are the pockets truly waterproof?
The pockets are equipped with zips to keep items secure, but they are not fully waterproof, so we recommend keeping sensitive electronics in a plastic bag if heavy rain is expected.
Does this jacket keep you warm?
While it is primarily a waterproof and windproof shell, its wind-blocking capabilities significantly help retain body heat in cold, blustery conditions.
Troubleshooting
Water no longer beads on the surface of the jacket
The DWR finish has likely worn off. Clean the jacket thoroughly and apply a DWR spray treatment designed for technical outerwear.
Feeling damp inside despite the waterproof rating
Ensure the cuffs, hood, and hem are fully adjusted and tightened. Also, check that the internal moisture is not due to condensation from wearing too many thick layers underneath.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your jacket continues to perform at its peak, proper care is essential. Always consult the care label inside the garment before washing, but generally, use a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can degrade the DWR coating. After heavy usage, the jacket can be machine washed and air-dried. If water stops beading on the surface over time, you can apply a professional-grade DWR re-proofer to restore its water-repellent properties. Store the jacket on a hanger in a cool, dry place to maintain the integrity of the taped seams and technical fabric.
