Can this jacket be worn for intense workouts?
Yes, the back mesh vent and articulated sleeves are designed to aid comfort during activity. However, for very high-intensity workouts in hot weather, consider its breathability limitations.

Troubleshooting
Jacket doesn't seem water-repellent
The water-repellent finish can diminish over time. Avoid fabric softeners during washing, and consider a re-waterproofing treatment if performance significantly degrades.
Zipper is difficult to use
Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper. Gently pull the fabric away from the zipper track. If resistance persists, check for any debris in the track and clean if necessary. A small amount of graphite from a pencil can sometimes help lubricate the zipper.
Jacket feels too warm during activity
Utilize the back mesh vent for increased airflow. Adjust the hood and hem bungees to allow for better ventilation. If prolonged high-intensity activity is expected in warm weather, consider lighter-weight options.
Reflective details are peeling
Avoid high heat during drying and do not iron directly on the reflective elements. If peeling begins, discontinue high-heat drying methods.
