Full details

FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the DWR finish?

The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish helps water bead up and roll off the fabric's surface, providing protection against light rain and splashes.

Can this jacket be worn in very cold weather?

This jacket is designed for mild to cool conditions. For very cold weather, it is best used as an outer layer with insulating mid-layers underneath.

How should I wash the jacket to maintain its water repellency?

Machine wash at 30°C using a mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners or bleach. Tumble dry on low or air dry. Consider reapplying a DWR treatment periodically.

Is this jacket suitable for intense physical activity in heavy rain?

While wind-resistant and water-repellent, this jacket is not fully waterproof. For prolonged or heavy rain during intense activity, a dedicated waterproof jacket would offer better protection.

What does the 'relaxed fit' mean for sizing?

A relaxed fit provides more room for movement and layering compared to a slim or regular fit. This jacket in XXXL offers generous space.

How do I adjust the hem?

The hem has an internal toggle. Pull the toggle to tighten the hem for a closer fit and to block out wind.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels damp inside after rain

The jacket is water-repellent, not fully waterproof. For heavy or prolonged rain, a waterproof jacket is recommended. Ensure the DWR finish is intact; consider re-applying if performance has decreased.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to use

Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper teeth. You can try lubricating the zipper with a graphite pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant.

Jacket feels too loose

Utilize the adjustable toggle hem to cinch the bottom of the jacket for a more secure and snug fit. Consider layering with thicker items underneath if a looser fit is desired.

Care Instructions:

To maintain the jacket's performance and appearance:

  1. Washing: Machine wash at 30°C with similar colours. Use a mild detergent.
  2. Detergent: Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners, as these can degrade the DWR finish and fabric performance.
  3. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang to air dry. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators.
  4. Re-proofing: For optimal water repellency, consider re-applying a DWR treatment periodically, following the product's specific instructions.
