FAQs

What does the 3-year waterproof warranty cover?

The 3-year waterproof warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship that result in a loss of waterproof performance under normal use. It does not cover general wear and tear or damage caused by improper care.

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

The HydroLite X jacket is designed to be lightweight and breathable, making it ideal for warmer playing conditions or as a waterproof shell. For very cold weather, it's recommended to layer appropriate insulating garments underneath.

How do I clean the jacket to maintain its waterproofness?

Machine wash cold with a mild detergent, avoiding fabric softeners and bleach. Tumble dry on low or hang dry. Reapply DWR treatment as needed to maintain water repellency.

What is the difference between WP and MP ratings?

WP stands for Waterproof rating (measured in millimeters), indicating the level of water pressure the fabric can withstand. MP stands for Moisture Permeability (measured in g/sqm/24hr), indicating how much water vapor can pass through the fabric, which relates to breathability.

Can I use this jacket for activities other than golf?

Yes, the jacket's waterproof, breathable, and flexible design makes it suitable for various outdoor activities such as hiking, walking, or travel in wet conditions.

Are there other colors and sizes available?

Yes, the FootJoy HydroLite X Waterproof Jacket is available in multiple color options and sizes. Please check the product listings for specific availability.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels damp inside during play.

Ensure the main zipper and pocket zippers are fully closed. Check that the adjustable cuffs are sealed properly. If the issue persists, the jacket's breathability may be compromised by dirt; try cleaning it according to care instructions.

Water is seeping through seams or fabric.

While unlikely with a 20,000mm WP rating, inspect the seams for any damage. Ensure any DWR treatment is intact; if not, consider re-applying a DWR finish. If the fabric itself appears damaged, contact customer support regarding the 3-year waterproof warranty.

Jacket feels restrictive during swing.

Verify you are wearing the correct size. Ensure the knit panels in the arms and back are properly positioned. Try adjusting the waterproof cuffs for optimal fit.
