FAQs
What is the breathability rating of this jacket?
The jacket has a breathability rating of 10000g/m²/24hrs.
Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?
The jacket is waterproof with taped seams and a DWR finish, making it suitable for moderate rain. For extremely heavy or prolonged downpours, a jacket with a higher hydrostatic head rating might be more appropriate.
How do I clean the jacket?
Machine wash on a gentle cycle at a low temperature (30°C or 40°C) with a liquid detergent. Rinse thoroughly and dry on a low tumble setting or by hanging. Avoid fabric softeners.
Can I use fabric softener when washing this jacket?
No, fabric softeners should not be used as they can clog the fabric's pores and reduce its breathability and water repellency.
What does 'Isotex 10000' mean?
Isotex 10000 signifies that the fabric is waterproof to a hydrostatic head of 10000mm and breathable to 10000g/m²/24hrs.
What is the purpose of the 'Durable Water Repellent Finish'?
The DWR finish causes water to bead up and roll off the surface of the fabric, preventing it from becoming saturated and enhancing the jacket's protection against light rain and splashes.
Is the hood detachable?
The hood is designed to be packaway, meaning it can be stowed within the collar when not in use. It is not detachable.
What chest sizes are available for this jacket?
The jacket is available in a range of sizes from XS (36 inches) up to 5XL (57 inches) chest circumference.
Troubleshooting
Jacket is no longer waterproof or water is soaking through.
This can be due to the DWR finish wearing off or the fabric pores becoming clogged. Clean the jacket thoroughly according to the care instructions. If water still soaks through, consider reapplying a DWR treatment following the product's instructions.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth to remove any dirt or debris. Gently rub a graphite pencil lead or a bit of wax along the teeth to help it glide smoothly.
Jacket feels clammy or less breathable.
Ensure the jacket is clean, as dirt and residue can clog the membrane. Check that any inner layers worn are also breathable. Wash the jacket according to care instructions, avoiding fabric softeners.
