Product Information
Full details
The MILLET SENECA 2.5L Waterproof Hiking Jacket is designed for outdoor enthusiasts who require reliable, lightweight protection against unpredictable mountain weather. Featuring a high-performance DRYEDGE 10K/10K membrane, this jacket excels at keeping you dry while allowing moisture to escape during strenuous hikes. While its 2.5-layer construction offers excellent mobility and versatility, users should note that as a lightweight shell, it is primarily intended for layering rather than providing significant thermal insulation on its own.

FAQs
Is the jacket fully waterproof?
Yes, it features a 10K/10K DRYEDGE membrane, which provides substantial protection against heavy rain and snow.
Can I wear this jacket for skiing?
While it is waterproof, it is a lightweight hiking shell. It is suitable for milder, active days, but lacks the insulation and features of a dedicated ski jacket.
Does it include a hood?
Yes, the jacket comes with an adjustable hood designed to provide protection and a secure fit against the wind.
How should I clean the jacket?
Use a specialized technical detergent, wash on a gentle cycle in cold water, and air dry or tumble dry on very low heat.
What does 2.5-layer mean?
It refers to the construction: an outer fabric, a waterproof membrane, and a protective print (the 'half' layer) on the inside, which makes it lighter than a 3-layer jacket.
Troubleshooting
Water is no longer beading on the fabric surface.
The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating has worn off. Wash the jacket and re-apply a DWR spray treatment to restore the water-shedding properties.
Feeling damp inside the jacket during activity.
Ensure you are using the underarm ventilation zips for better airflow and verify that you are not wearing too many insulating layers, which can impede breathability.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- High-performance waterproof and breathable membrane
- Lightweight and packable design
- Excellent freedom of movement due to fluid fit
- Environmentally conscious construction with recycled materials
- Effective underarm ventilation for temperature control
Cons
- Not intended for extreme cold without proper layering
- 2.5-layer construction may show wear faster than heavy-duty 3-layer shells
- Limited to shell-only functionality
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your DRYEDGE membrane, keep the outer fabric clean. Dirt and oils can degrade the water-repellent treatment over time.
Care Instructions:
- Wash in cold water on a delicate cycle using a technical cleaner designed for waterproof gear.
- Do not use fabric softeners or bleach, as these can strip the DWR coating.
- Tumble dry on low heat or air dry to reactivate the water-repellent treatment.
- Re-apply a PFC-free DWR spray if water stops beading on the surface after multiple washes.
The jacket's minimalist design ensures it is compatible with most standard climbing and hiking harnesses and fits comfortably under pack straps without creating pressure points.
