Product Information
Full details
The Craghoppers Ponsa Waterproof Jacket is designed for adult hikers and outdoor enthusiasts who require a reliable, nimble, and highly breathable shell for active pursuits in unpredictable weather. Utilizing a streamlined AquaDry Membrane stretch construction, this jacket provides essential protection against the elements without sacrificing mobility. While it excels in performance during high-energy activities, users should note that as a lightweight shell, it is intended for layering rather than providing heavy insulation in extreme arctic cold.

FAQs
Is this jacket windproof?
Yes, the AquaDry Membrane provides effective wind resistance, helping to block cold air on exposed trails.
Can I wear this in winter?
It is suitable for winter if layered correctly with an insulating mid-layer like a fleece or down jacket, as the shell itself is not insulated.
How should I wash my Craghoppers jacket?
Use a specialized technical cleaner, wash on a gentle cycle at low temperature, and avoid using any fabric softeners.
Is the fabric noisy when moving?
The stretch polyester construction is designed to be softer and quieter than rigid, heavy-duty waterproof shells.
Does this jacket have an adjustable hood?
Most models in the Ponsa range feature an adjustable hood to ensure a secure fit and better coverage in windy conditions.
Troubleshooting
Water begins to soak into the outer fabric instead of beading off
The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating has worn off. Wash the jacket and re-apply a DWR spray or wash-in treatment to restore performance.
Feeling damp inside the jacket during high exertion
Ensure that your base layers are synthetic or wool rather than cotton, as cotton absorbs moisture and hinders the breathability of the jacket.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your jacket, adhere to these care guidelines:
- Cleaning: Wash the garment using a mild, technical detergent specifically designed for waterproof outerwear. Avoid traditional fabric softeners or bleach, as these can strip the protective membrane.
- Drying: Air dry the jacket whenever possible. If the care label allows, tumble dry on a low, gentle heat setting to help reactivate the durable water repellent (DWR) finish.
- Storage: Store the jacket in a cool, dry place. Avoid leaving it compressed in a ball for extended periods; hang it up to maintain the structure of the fabric.
- Layering: Due to its athletic fit, pair this jacket with moisture-wicking base layers and insulating mid-layers to build a complete system for cold or wet weather.
