FAQs

Is the hood detachable?

No, the hood is fixed but fully adjustable with a peak for better coverage in rain.

What is the insulation weight?

The parka features 120 g/m² of insulation, which is suitable for standard winter temperatures.

Can I machine wash this jacket?

Yes, machine wash on a gentle cycle, but avoid fabric softeners and bleach.

Does it have a thermal lining?

The parka uses 120 g/m² insulation which is integrated into the garment construction.

How do I adjust the waist?

There is an internal drawstring located inside the garment that allows you to cinch the waist for a more tailored fit.

Is the material stretchy?

The parka is made from durable ripstop nylon, which is designed for strength rather than stretch.

Troubleshooting

Water beading is no longer effective on the outer fabric

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may need reactivating; wash the jacket and tumble dry on low heat or use a specialized DWR re-proofer spray.

Feeling damp inside despite the waterproof rating

Ensure that the internal storm flap is properly secured and that you are not overdressed, as high activity levels can sometimes exceed the breathability capacity of the fabric.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent weather resistance with high waterproofing and breathability scores
  • Ripstop nylon construction offers great durability
  • Versatile two-way zipper allows for improved mobility and airflow
  • Internal waist drawstring allows for a customizable fit
  • Includes essential features like chin protection and an internal storm flap

Cons

  • A-line silhouette may not fit all body types as preferred
  • Requires proper care of the membrane to maintain waterproof qualities
  • Specific fit across sizes requires checking the sizing guide carefully

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To keep your parka in optimal condition, avoid using harsh detergents or fabric softeners, as these can compromise the waterproof membrane. When cleaning, machine wash on a gentle cycle and hang to dry; if needed, a low-temperature tumble dry can help reactivate the water-repellent finish. Ensure that all zippers are closed before laundering to protect the hardware. Store the parka in a cool, dry place and avoid compressing it under heavy items for long periods to preserve the loft of the insulation.
