The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish is a coating applied to the outer surface of the fabric that causes water to bead up and roll off, preventing the fabric from becoming saturated and maintaining its breathability.
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. Reapply a DWR treatment suitable for technical outerwear according to the product's instructions.
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and water. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or wax specifically designed for zippers.
Ensure the jacket is properly vented (if applicable) and that the base layers are moisture-wicking. Check that the internal moisture is not due to insufficient breathability on very humid days or excessive exertion without venting.
Verify that all seams are fully taped. If a seam tape appears damaged, contact customer support. Ensure outer zips are fully closed.
Setup: The jacket requires no specific setup. Ensure all zips are fully closed before use. The hood can be adjusted using the integrated drawcords and the wired peak can be shaped for optimal visibility. Cuffs and hem can be adjusted via hook-and-loop tabs and drawcords respectively.
Compatibility: This jacket is designed as an outer layer for adult males. It pairs well with thermal base layers and mid-layers for colder conditions. Its sizing is generally compatible with standard outdoor apparel.
