FAQs

Is the Dare 2b Striking IV Jacket suitable for heavy snowfall?

Yes, with its Ared 10/10 waterproof fabric and ILoft Ecofill insulation, the jacket is designed to provide effective protection and warmth in snowy conditions. For extreme cold, layering is recommended.

Can I remove the hood?

No, the hood is fixed on the Striking IV Jacket. However, the faux fur trim attached to the hood is removable, offering versatility in styling and ease of care.

What is the primary material of the jacket?

The jacket is crafted from advanced waterproof and breathable Ared 10/10 fabric, which is typically a durable polyester blend, ensuring both protection and comfort.

How do I know if the jacket is breathable?

The 'Ared 10/10' fabric designation indicates excellent breathability, often rated around 10,000g/m²/24hrs. This means it allows moisture vapor from your body to escape, preventing you from feeling clammy during activity.

Does this jacket come with a warranty?

Info needed: Please refer to the manufacturer's official website or your retailer's policy for specific warranty information on Dare 2b products.

What kind of activities is this jacket best for?

This jacket is ideal for a range of casual to moderately active winter pursuits, including daily commutes, city explorations, walking, and light hiking, offering a balance of style, warmth, and weather protection.

Troubleshooting

My jacket doesn't seem to be as waterproof as it used to be.

The water-repellent finish (DWR) can wear off over time. After cleaning the jacket according to care instructions, apply a DWR re-treatment spray or wash-in product specifically designed for waterproof breathable fabrics. Ensure the jacket is clean and dry before application.

The faux fur trim looks matted or lost its fluffiness.

Remove the faux fur trim from the hood. Gently hand wash it with mild soap and cool water. Rinse thoroughly, shake off excess water, and allow it to air dry completely. Once dry, you can gently brush or fluff it with your fingers to restore its appearance.

I'm still feeling cold even with the jacket on.

Ensure you are layering appropriately for the temperature. For colder conditions, wear a wicking base layer and an insulating mid-layer (like a fleece) underneath the jacket. Make sure all zippers and adjustments are closed to trap warm air inside.

Care Instructions

Proper care will extend the life and maintain the performance of your Dare 2b Striking IV Jacket.

  1. Remove Faux Fur Trim: Always detach the faux fur trim from the hood before washing the main jacket. The faux fur typically requires gentler care.
  2. Washing the Jacket: Refer to the care label located inside your jacket for the most accurate instructions. Generally, machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with a mild, non-biological detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can impair the fabric's breathability and water-repellent finish.
  3. Drying the Jacket: Air dry the jacket by hanging it. If using a tumble dryer, select a low heat setting and ensure the jacket is completely dry before storing. Over-drying or high heat can damage the fabric and its finishes.
  4. Washing the Faux Fur Trim: Hand wash the faux fur trim gently with a mild detergent in cool water. Rinse thoroughly and allow it to air dry naturally. Do not put it in a washing machine or tumble dryer, as this can damage the fibers and texture.
  5. Water-Repellent Re-treatment: Over time, the jacket's water-repellent finish may wear off. If water no longer beads on the surface, consider applying a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) re-treatment spray or wash-in product designed for waterproof breathable fabrics.
