Dare 2b Air Lite Jacket - Black - XXL

This jacket is ideal for cool, windy, and damp conditions. It provides excellent wind protection and is water-repellent for light rain or snow. It’s designed as a great mid-layer or outer layer for active use in transitional seasons.

While it offers good insulation for its weight, it is primarily designed for minimal bulk. For extreme cold, it is best used as a layering piece over warmer insulation or under a heavier outer shell.

Machine wash cold (30°C) on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Do not use bleach or fabric softeners. Rinse thoroughly and tumble dry on low heat with tennis balls.

PFAS compliant means the Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish does not contain certain per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, which are considered environmentally persistent. This makes the finish more eco-friendly.

Yes, you can machine wash the jacket following the specific care instructions: cold, gentle cycle, mild detergent, no bleach or fabric softener.

SEAMSMART technology creates a seamless construction that enhances durability and abrasion resistance, while also allowing for greater freedom of movement and a more comfortable, non-restrictive fit.

The jacket includes an internal zipped pocket for secure storage of valuables and two lower zipped pockets for your hands or essentials.

Ensure the DWR and windproof coatings are intact. If performance has degraded, consider reapplying a DWR treatment. For extreme cold, layer with additional insulating garments.

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush. Apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant or beeswax to the teeth and operate the zipper slowly.

Ensure the jacket is clean and completely dry before storing. Washing and tumble drying on low heat (as per care instructions) can help restore loft.

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. Clean the jacket and reapply a suitable DWR treatment. For prolonged or heavy rain, use a waterproof outer layer.
