FAQs
What is GORE-TEX® laminate?
GORE-TEX® laminate is a technical fabric membrane that is waterproof, windproof, and breathable, designed to keep you dry and comfortable in various weather conditions.
How does the RECCO® reflector work?
The RECCO® reflector is a passive transponder that doesn't require power. It reflects radar signals sent by RECCO® detectors used by search and rescue teams, helping them locate you in an emergency.
Is this jacket suitable for extreme cold?
This is a shell jacket designed for protection against rain and wind. For extreme cold, it should be layered over insulating garments like fleece or down.
Can I machine wash the jacket?
Yes, you can machine wash it warm (40°C) with a liquid detergent. Avoid powder detergents and bleach. Always follow the specific care instructions provided.
How do I reapply the DWR finish?
You can use a spray-on or wash-in DWR product designed for waterproof-breathable apparel. Follow the product's instructions carefully, which often involve washing and tumble drying.
What size is this jacket?
This specific product listing is for Size 3. Other sizes may be available separately.
What material is the jacket made from?
The base fabric is made from 100% Polyamide / Nylon.
Troubleshooting
Jacket is no longer waterproof
Ensure the jacket is clean. Residue from detergents or dirt can impede performance. Reapply a DWR finish as per care instructions.
Zipper is stiff or stuck
Gently try to move the zipper. If it remains stuck, check for fabric caught in the teeth. Apply a graphite pencil lead or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth.
Reduced breathability
Clean the jacket thoroughly following the care instructions. Ensure the internal membrane is not blocked by dirt or residue. Check that vents, if present, are open.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: No setup is required. The jacket is ready to wear out of the packaging. Ensure all zippers are fully closed before use.
Compatibility: Designed for adult males. While packable, its primary compatibility is with outdoor activities like hiking, trekking, and climbing. It is designed to be worn as an outer shell over other layers.
Care:
- Washing: Machine wash warm (40°C) with a liquid detergent. Do not use powder detergent or bleach.
- Rinsing: Rinse twice to remove all detergent residue.
- Drying: Tumble dry warm to reactivate the water-repellent treatment. Afterward, you can optionally iron on a warm setting (low heat) to further enhance the DWR finish.
- Water-Repellent Treatment: Periodically reapply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish if water no longer beads on the fabric surface. Use a spray-on or wash-in product designed for waterproof-breathable garments.
