Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this jacket truly waterproof?

Yes, it is constructed with AquaDry Membrane technology and features fully taped seams with a 30,000mm hydrostatic head rating, making it highly effective against heavy rain.

Does it come with a hood?

Yes, it features an adjustable hood with a reinforced peak designed to provide clear visibility and protection during wet weather.

Can I fit a down jacket underneath?

The Ponsa is a slim-fit jacket. While you can wear a thin fleece or base layer comfortably, a bulky down jacket might restrict movement.

Is this jacket made from recycled materials?

Yes, the outer fabric of this jacket is made from 100% recycled materials.

How many pockets does it have?

The jacket features 3 pockets in total, including a convenient O/S map pocket.

How should I clean the jacket?

Wash it on a gentle cycle with technical gear detergent and air dry. Avoid fabric softeners to protect the waterproof membrane.

Troubleshooting

Water is no longer beading on the surface

The outer water-repellent treatment has worn off. Wash the garment and re-apply a DWR spray or wash-in treatment to restore performance.

Feeling damp inside despite the waterproof rating

This is often caused by condensation buildup from trapped body heat. Ensure you are layering with moisture-wicking base layers and adjust your activity intensity to allow the breathability feature to function effectively.

The zipper feels stiff

Check for debris or dirt in the zipper teeth. Clean with a soft brush and, if necessary, apply a small amount of zipper lubricant specifically made for outdoor gear.

Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your jacket, follow these maintenance guidelines:

  1. Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle using a technical cleaner designed for waterproof gear. Avoid using standard fabric softeners as they can clog the pores of the membrane.
  2. Drying: Air drying is recommended. You may occasionally tumble dry on a low heat setting to help reactivate the H2OShield water-repellent finish.
  3. Re-treating: If you notice water no longer beads up on the surface of the fabric, apply a spray-on or wash-in DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment to maintain the outer shell's performance.
  4. Storage: Hang the jacket in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use for extended periods to protect the integrity of the taped seams.
