Full details

Its key benefit is providing exceptional protection against water and wind while remaining highly breathable, ensuring comfort in harsh conditions.

FAQs
What does GORE-TEX® mean for the jacket's performance?
GORE-TEX® is a highly advanced membrane that provides waterproof, windproof, and breathable protection. It ensures that water cannot penetrate from the outside, while allowing perspiration vapor to escape from the inside, keeping you dry and comfortable in various weather conditions.
What is the purpose of the RECCO® reflector?
The RECCO® reflector is a passive electronic transponder integrated into the garment. It does not require power and is used by organized ski patrol and mountain rescue teams with RECCO® detectors to help locate individuals who have been buried in an avalanche or lost in the backcountry.
How should I clean the jacket to maintain its waterproofness?
Machine wash on a gentle cycle with a mild liquid detergent and warm water. Avoid bleach, fabric softeners, and powder detergents. Rinse thoroughly and tumble dry on low heat to restore the water-repellent finish.
Can I wear this jacket in everyday situations?
While the jacket offers excellent protection, its design is optimized for technical outdoor activities. It can be worn casually, but its full benefits are realized during trekking, hiking, or in harsh weather conditions.
What materials are used in this jacket?
The base fabric is 100% Polyester. The overlaying material, likely associated with stretch panels or specific GORE-TEX® layers, is composed of 87% Polyamide (Nylon) and 13% Elastane (Spandex).
Is this jacket suitable for extreme cold?
This jacket is primarily designed for waterproofing and breathability. For extreme cold, it is recommended to layer appropriate insulating garments underneath. The jacket itself provides a protective outer shell.
Troubleshooting
Jacket is losing its water repellency.
Ensure the jacket is clean. Tumble dry on a low heat setting for about 20 minutes to reactivate the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish. If performance does not improve, a DWR re-treatment spray may be needed.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and mild soap. Ensure no debris is caught in the zipper. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or a bit of beeswax to the zipper teeth.
Jacket feels clammy inside despite being waterproof.
This can occur if the jacket's breathability is compromised. Ensure the inner lining is clean and free from dirt or oils. Check that all vents (if present) are open. Avoid wearing non-breathable base layers underneath.
