FAQs

Is this jacket fully waterproof?

Yes, it is constructed with 3-layer DryVent fabric, which provides full waterproof and windproof protection.

Can I wear a thick sweater underneath?

The jacket features a standard fit designed to accommodate layering underneath.

How do I adjust the hood?

The hood includes an integrated adjustment system to cinch the fit closer to your head for better wind protection.

Are the pockets waterproof?

The pockets are secure-zip, providing excellent protection for your gear, though they are not submersible.

Is this suitable for winter hiking?

It provides excellent shell protection but is not insulated. You should wear thermal mid-layers for winter conditions.

Troubleshooting

Water begins to soak into the outer fabric instead of beading off.

The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating may need to be refreshed. Clean the jacket and apply a specialized DWR spray treatment.

Feeling damp inside during high-output activity.

Ensure you are using the underarm vents and adjust your base layers to ensure they are moisture-wicking and not cotton.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To maximize the life of your jacket, ensure you follow the care label instructions. Generally, you should wash it in cold water with a gentle detergent and avoid harsh fabric softeners that can clog the breathable pores of the DryVent membrane. Tumble dry on low heat or air dry to maintain the integrity of the waterproof coating. When setting up for a trek, the jacket is designed to fit comfortably over base layers or mid-weight fleeces, allowing you to adapt to temperature changes throughout the day.
