Product Information

Full details

The Canterbury Club Vaposhield Full Zip Waterproof Jacket is designed for adult men who require reliable protection against wet weather without sacrificing mobility. Its primary benefit is the integration of Vaposhield water-resistant technology combined with a lightweight, durable micro-diamond ripstop fabric, making it ideal for both athletic training and casual outdoor use. While the jacket offers excellent defense against the elements, users should note that as a lightweight performance piece, it is intended for layering rather than providing heavy thermal insulation.

FAQs

Is this jacket machine washable?

Yes, it can be machine washed on a gentle cycle. Always check the care label on the garment for specific temperature recommendations.

Does the hood detach?

The hood is a packaway design, meaning it folds into the standing collar rather than detaching completely.

Is this jacket warm enough for winter?

The jacket is primarily a shell designed for water and wind resistance. It is best used as a top layer over thermal or fleece garments in cold weather.

What does the micro-diamond ripstop fabric do?

This specialized weave pattern makes the fabric significantly more resistant to tearing and ripping than standard polyester.

Are the pockets large enough for a modern smartphone?

Yes, the side pockets are designed to securely hold standard-sized smartphones and keys with zippered closures.

Troubleshooting

Water begins to soak through the fabric after long use.

The water-repellent finish may wear off over time. Re-apply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray specifically designed for synthetic technical apparel.

The zipper feels stuck or difficult to move.

Check for fabric caught in the teeth. Gently clean the zipper area with a soft brush to remove dust or grit, then ensure the slider is aligned correctly.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Lightweight and highly packable for easy transport
  • Water-resistant Vaposhield technology protects against rain
  • Durable ripstop material prevents snagging and tearing
  • Adjustable features like the toggle hem allow for a tailored fit
  • Forward shoulder seams improve comfort during active use

Cons

  • Lacks heavy internal insulation for extreme cold
  • Fit is specific to a male athletic build
  • Limited to water resistance rather than full submersion waterproofing

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your jacket maintains its performance properties, follow these guidelines:

  1. Fitting: The jacket is cut for an athletic fit. If you intend to wear thick mid-layers or heavy sweaters underneath, consider your sizing accordingly to ensure full freedom of movement.
  2. Cleaning: Machine wash on a gentle cycle with like colors. Avoid using heavy fabric softeners, as these can compromise the water-resistant Vaposhield coating.
  3. Drying: Air dry whenever possible to preserve the integrity of the synthetic fibers. Do not bleach or dry clean.
  4. Maintenance: Regularly clear debris from the zipper tracks to ensure smooth operation of the full-zip closure.
