FAQs
What is Warmloft insulation?
Warmloft is a synthetic insulation that mimics the performance of down, providing excellent warmth for its weight without the bulk. It retains thermal properties even when damp.
Is this jacket fully waterproof?
No, the jacket features a water-repellent finish, which is designed to repel light showers and moisture. It is not waterproof and should not be relied upon in heavy rain.
Can I wear this in very cold weather?
The jacket provides lightweight warmth and is ideal for transitional seasons or as a mid-layer in colder conditions. For extreme cold, additional layers may be necessary.
How do I clean the jacket?
Machine wash on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid bleach. Tumble dry on low or air dry. Do not iron.
What are the Extol Stretch panels for?
These panels are made from a more flexible material and are placed in key areas to allow for greater freedom of movement, making the jacket ideal for activities that require dynamic motion.
How many pockets does the jacket have?
The jacket features zipped pockets for secure storage of personal items.
Does the hood offer adjustment?
The description mentions a hood for coverage. Specific adjustment features may vary, but it typically provides basic protection. Check product details or the garment itself for drawcords or elastication.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct size. The Extol Stretch panels offer some flexibility, but proper sizing is key for comfort and movement.
Water repellency is reduced
After several washes, the water-repellent finish may diminish. Reapply a suitable DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray or wash-in treatment following product instructions.
Insulation feels flat after washing
Tumble dry on a low heat setting with a few clean tennis balls. This helps to break up any clumps and restore the loft of the Warmloft insulation.
