Full details

FAQs

What does 3000mm waterproofing mean?

A 3000mm rating indicates that the fabric can withstand the pressure of a 3000mm column of water before water starts to seep through. This is suitable for moderate rain.

Can this parka be worn in very cold weather?

The parka is primarily designed for rain and wind protection. For very cold weather, layering with warm clothing underneath, such as a fleece or sweater, is recommended.

How do I clean the rubber sleeve badge?

Gently wipe the rubber badge with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the rubber.

Is the paisley hood lining visible when the hood is down?

Yes, the paisley lining is visible around the edge of the hood when it is worn down.

What is the purpose of shoulder epaulettes?

Shoulder epaulettes are a design feature, historically used to indicate rank or attach equipment. In this parka, they add a stylistic detail.

How should I store the parka when not in use?

Store the parka in a cool, dry place. Avoid prolonged compression, which can affect the fabric's performance and waterproofing. Hanging is ideal.

Is this parka suitable for heavy-duty outdoor activities?

While durable for casual use, this parka is best suited for everyday wear and moderate weather conditions. For extreme conditions or strenuous activities, specialized technical outerwear may be more appropriate.

Troubleshooting

Water seeping through seams

Ensure all zipped and snapped closures are fully secured. For persistent issues, the seam sealant may need reapplication over time; consult specialized outdoor gear care guides.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to use

Apply a small amount of wax or graphite lubricant to the zipper teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper track.

Hood lining feels uncomfortable

The paisley lining is part of the design. If it causes irritation, consider wearing a cap or beanie underneath the hood.

Parka loses its water repellency

Wash the parka according to care instructions and tumble dry on low heat (or use a hairdryer on low). This can reactivate the Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish. If needed, a DWR re-treatment spray can be applied.
