FAQs
Is the hood fully detachable?
Yes, the jacket features a detachable hood that can be easily removed based on your preference or the weather.
Can I wear this in heavy rain?
The jacket has a water-repellent finish intended for light rain; it is not fully waterproof and should not be used in heavy downpours.
How many pockets does the jacket have?
The jacket includes two exterior side zip pockets and three interior pockets for secure storage.
Does it provide enough warmth for winter?
It features medium-weight padding, which is suitable for mild winter days or layering, but it may not be sufficient for extreme sub-zero temperatures.
Is the material sustainable?

How do I adjust the fit at the bottom?
You can use the adjustable drawstring located at the hem to tighten the fit and block out wind.
Troubleshooting
Water stops beading on the surface
The DWR coating has likely worn off; reapply a standard fabric water-repellent spray to restore functionality.
Zipper feels stiff or stuck
Clear any debris from the zipper teeth and apply a small amount of graphite or specialized zipper lubricant to ensure smooth movement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your jacket in peak condition, follow these care guidelines:
- Cleaning: Use a gentle cycle in your washing machine with mild detergent, following the specific care tag instructions. Ensure all zippers are closed before washing.
- Drying: Air dry whenever possible to protect the synthetic insulation. If machine drying is necessary, use a low heat setting.
- Reproofing: Over time, the DWR finish may wear off. If you notice water no longer beads on the surface, consider applying a spray-on DWR treatment to restore water repellency.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place on a wide-shouldered hanger to maintain the shape of the padding and structural integrity of the shoulders.
