Long Hooded Parka - Blue - L

The parka offers good protection against wind and rain, making it suitable for cool weather. For extreme cold, layering with insulating garments underneath is recommended.

Yes, the hood is designed to be both adjustable and completely removable, offering flexibility in how you wear the parka.

A 2-layer construction means the Gore-Tex membrane is laminated to the outer fabric. A separate inner lining is then attached loosely or with a spacer mesh. This design provides good durability and comfort.

It's generally recommended to wash your Gore-Tex parka when it appears dirty or when its water-repellent properties seem diminished. Typically, this might be after a few weeks of regular use or at the end of a season.

Gore-Tex is known for its ability to be both waterproof and breathable. This means it keeps external water out while allowing internal moisture vapor (like sweat) to escape, keeping you dry from both sides.

This guide specifically covers the Blue - L size. Please check the product listing for availability of other sizes and colors.

If water no longer beads up and rolls off the fabric surface, but instead soaks in, it's time to reapply the DWR treatment.

Ensure the DWR treatment is active. If not, reapply a DWR product and tumble dry. Also, check that the Gore-Tex membrane itself is not damaged. If damage is suspected, contact customer support.

Clean the zipper teeth with a brush and warm water. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or a wax crayon to the teeth to improve smoothness. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper.

Check if the inner lining or pockets are clogged with debris. Wash the parka according to the care instructions, as detergent residue can impair breathability. Ensure any internal vents are not obstructed.

Avoid excessive heat during washing and drying. If the peeling is minor, it may be possible to carefully re-adhere with a fabric-specific adhesive, but avoid direct heat application. Contact customer support for further options.
