FAQs

What is the primary material of the jacket?

The jacket is made from crinkled nylon, known for its durability and water-repellent properties.

Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?

This jacket is water-repellent, meaning it can handle light rain or drizzles. It is not designed for heavy downpours or prolonged exposure to wet conditions.

How do I know if I should size up or down?

The jacket features a roomy fit. If you prefer a more fitted look or plan to wear minimal layers underneath, consider sizing down. If you intend to layer heavily or prefer a looser feel, stick to your usual size or consider sizing up.

How should I clean the jacket?

Machine wash cold with like colors using a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach. Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry.

Are the reflective details durable?

The reflective details are designed for durability under normal wear and washing conditions. Avoid harsh chemicals, high heat, and excessive scrubbing to maintain their integrity.

Can I wear this jacket in cold weather?

The jacket provides wind resistance and protection from light moisture. For colder weather, it is best used as an outer layer over insulating garments like fleece or down.

Troubleshooting

Water repellency is decreasing.

Clean the jacket thoroughly to remove dirt and oils. Reapply a suitable water-repellent spray or wash-in treatment according to the product's instructions.

Reflective details are peeling or damaged.

Avoid harsh detergents, high heat drying, and excessive abrasion. If damaged, the reflective quality will be compromised.

Jacket feels stiff after washing.

Ensure you are not using fabric softeners. Try a gentle cycle with a mild detergent and air dry or tumble dry on low.
