FAQs

Is this jacket insulated?

No, this is a shell jacket and does not have built-in insulation. It is designed to be layered over other clothing for warmth.

How do I clean the jacket to maintain its waterproofness?

Machine wash cold with like colors using powder detergent. Avoid fabric softener and bleach. Tumble dry on low heat. Do not iron or dry clean.

What does '2.5L' refer to in the product name?

The '2.5L' typically refers to the layering system of the waterproof fabric, indicating a durable outer face fabric, a waterproof membrane, and a light protective layer or 'drop' on the inside, making it lighter and more packable than a 3-layer jacket.

Can this jacket be worn in very cold weather?

Yes, it can be worn in very cold weather when layered appropriately with insulating clothing such as fleece or down jackets underneath. The shell provides wind and water protection.

How do I know if my jacket is packable?

This jacket is designed to pack into its own hand pocket. Locate the hand pocket, turn it inside out, and stuff the jacket into it until it forms a compact bundle.

What is the warranty for this jacket?

Columbia Sportswear generally offers a limited warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. Please refer to the official Columbia Sportswear website or product packaging for specific warranty details and duration.

Are the reflective details effective in all lighting conditions?

The reflective details are designed to enhance visibility when illuminated by external light sources, such as headlights. They are most effective in low-light conditions when light reflects off them.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is not fully waterproof.

Ensure all seams are properly sealed and zippers are fully closed. Check for any damage to the fabric or coating. Reapply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment if performance has diminished.

Zipper is difficult to operate.

Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it's stuck on fabric, carefully pull the fabric away. Lubricate the zipper teeth with a graphite pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant if it continues to be stiff.

Jacket feels clammy inside.

Open the underarm vents to increase airflow. Ensure you are wearing breathable layers underneath. The Omni-Tech™ fabric is breathable, but excessive moisture buildup from intense activity can still occur without adequate ventilation.
