FAQs

What is the waterproof rating of this jacket?

The jacket has a waterproof rating of 15000mm, indicating a high level of water resistance. It is designed to withstand significant rainfall.

How breathable is the jacket?

The jacket offers a breathability rating of 15000g/m²/24hrs, which means it allows a substantial amount of moisture vapor to pass through, helping to keep you dry from the inside during physical activity.

Is the hood detachable?

No, the hood is a grown-on technical hood, meaning it is permanently attached to the jacket.

How should I clean the jacket to maintain its performance?

Machine wash at 30°C with liquid detergent, rinse twice, and tumble dry on a low setting or hang to dry. It's recommended to re-apply a DWR finish after washing.

Does the jacket have pockets for valuables?

Yes, it features a chest pocket, two side pockets, and one internal security pocket, all with water-repellent zips for secure storage.

What does 'tailored fit' mean for this jacket?

A tailored fit means the jacket is cut closer to the body for a more shaped and streamlined appearance, compared to a looser or relaxed fit. It's designed to be functional yet flattering.

Can this jacket be worn in very cold weather?

While the jacket provides windproofing and water resistance, its insulation is minimal, relying on its mesh lining. For very cold conditions, it is best layered over warm mid-layers and base layers.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer fully waterproof.

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. Re-apply a DWR treatment after washing according to the product's instructions. Ensure all seams are intact.

Zippers are stiff or difficult to move.

Clean the zipper teeth gently with a small brush and water. Apply a graphite pencil lead or a silicone-based lubricant to the teeth for smoother operation. Avoid excessive force.

Jacket feels clammy inside.

This can indicate reduced breathability. Ensure the garment is clean, as dirt and oils can clog the pores. Wash following care instructions. Make sure you are not overheating; consider removing a layer if necessary.

Adjustable hem or hood cords are tangled or won't tighten.

Carefully untangle the cords. Check that the cord locks are functioning correctly. If damaged, they may need replacement.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent waterproofing and breathability for comfort in wet conditions.
  • Designed for freedom of movement, suitable for active use.
  • Adjustable features on hood, cuffs, and hem allow for a personalized, secure fit.
  • Multiple secure, water-repellent pockets for convenient storage.
  • Constructed with sustainable, recycled materials.

Cons

  • Tailored fit might not suit everyone; check sizing carefully.
  • While water-repellent, the chest pocket zip might be less robust than side zips.
  • Lining is mesh, which may offer less insulation in very cold weather compared to a solid lining.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This jacket requires no assembly. Simply unpack and wear.

Compatibility: Designed as outerwear for adult women. The tailored fit is intended to be worn over base layers and mid-layers. It is compatible with various outdoor trousers and footwear.

Care Instructions:

  • Washing: Machine wash at 30°C (85°F) using a liquid detergent. Do not use powder detergents, bleach, or fabric softeners.
  • Rinsing: Rinse twice to ensure all detergent is removed.
  • Drying: Tumble dry on a low setting or hang to dry away from direct heat or sunlight. For best results, re-proof your jacket after washing to restore its water-repellent finish.
  • Ironing: Cool iron if necessary. Do not iron trims or decorations.
