'10k Waterproof' refers to the hydrostatic head rating, indicating the jacket can withstand 10,000 millimeters of water pressure before leaking. This signifies good protection against moderate to heavy rain.
'10k Breathable' refers to the fabric's ability to allow water vapor to pass through it, measured in grams per square meter per 24 hours (g/m²/24h). A rating of 10,000g indicates good breathability, suitable for active use.
This jacket is primarily designed for waterproofing and wind resistance. For very cold weather, you will need to layer a warm insulating jacket (like a fleece or down jacket) underneath.
Machine wash on a gentle cycle with similar colors using a mild detergent. Do not bleach, and tumble dry on low heat or hang dry. Avoid fabric softeners.
No, the hood is integrated but designed to be foldaway into the collar for convenient storage when not needed.
The shell is made of 100% Nylon, and the lining is 100% Polyester.
The fit can be adjusted at the cuffs using the hook-and-loop fasteners to ensure a snug seal against wind and rain.
Ensure the jacket has been washed according to care instructions and that no fabric softeners were used. The water-repellent finish may need reapplication over time; consider using a technical wash-in or spray-on waterproofer suitable for waterproof/breathable fabrics.
This could be due to condensation from perspiration. Ensure the cuffs and any ventilation points are open. If the issue persists during activity, the breathability may be overwhelmed by heavy exertion. Check that the jacket's membranes are not clogged by dirt by washing according to care instructions.
Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. If it remains stiff, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a silicone-based lubricant specifically designed for zippers to the teeth.
Setup: This jacket requires no assembly. Simply unpack and wear. Ensure the hood is properly secured within its compartment if not in use.
Compatibility: Designed as an outerwear garment for adult males. It layers effectively over a range of base and mid-layers. Ensure you select the correct size for optimal fit and layering.
