Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for extreme cold?

The jacket provides lightweight insulation suitable for cold winter conditions. For extreme cold, layering with additional thermal base layers or mid-layers is recommended.

How do I determine the correct size?

The jacket features a relaxed men’s fit. Refer to the Altura sizing guide for specific measurements to find the best fit for your chest and waist.

Can I wear this jacket for activities other than cycling?

Yes, its waterproof, breathable, and insulated features make it suitable for various winter outdoor activities such as hiking, running, or general everyday use in cold, wet weather.

What does '10K/10K waterproof and breathability' mean?

This rating indicates the fabric's ability to withstand 10,000 millimeters (mm) of water pressure (waterproofness) and allow 10,000 grams (g) of water vapor to pass through per square meter in 24 hours (breathability).

Are the reflective elements durable?

The reflective details are designed for visibility but can wear over time with frequent washing and abrasion. Proper care as outlined in the instructions will help prolong their effectiveness.

What does 'PFC-free DWR' mean?

PFC-free DWR means the water-repellent finish is free from per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, which are chemicals often used in waterproofing treatments but can have environmental impacts. This jacket uses a more eco-friendly alternative.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is leaking or no longer beading water

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) coating may have worn off. Clean the jacket thoroughly and apply a new PFC-free DWR treatment according to the product instructions.

Feeling too hot during moderate effort

Open the zipped underarm vents further to increase airflow and regulate body temperature. Consider wearing a lighter base layer if conditions are milder than anticipated.

Zippers are stiff or difficult to move

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and lukewarm water. Once dry, apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant or wax (like beeswax) to the teeth.

Reflective details are peeling or damaged

Avoid aggressive washing or high-heat drying. Minor damage may be cosmetic; for significant peeling, contact customer support for potential repair options.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent waterproof and breathable performance for wet conditions.
  • Integrated insulation offers warmth without excessive weight.
  • High-visibility design enhances safety in low light.
  • Practical features like vents and secure pockets add convenience.
  • Made with durable, recycled materials.

Cons

  • Relaxed fit may not suit riders preferring a snug, aerodynamic cut.
  • While insulated, extreme cold may require additional layering.
  • Reflective elements can wear over time with heavy use and washing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This jacket requires no complex setup; it is ready to wear straight out of the package. Its relaxed fit is designed for comfort over a base layer or a light jersey.

Care Instructions:

  • Washing: Machine wash cold (30°C) on a gentle cycle. Use a mild, non-biological detergent. Do not use fabric softeners or bleach.
  • Drying: Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Ensure the jacket is completely dry before storing.
  • Re-proofing: Periodically, especially if water no longer beads on the surface, re-apply a PFC-free DWR treatment following the product's instructions to maintain water repellency.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Avoid storing in damp conditions, which can degrade the fabric's performance.
