Its key benefit is enhanced waterproof and breathable performance using AquaDry Membrane stretch fabric with a H2OShield finish, ensuring you stay dry and comfortable in varying weather conditions.

FAQs

What is the waterproof rating of this jacket?

The jacket has a waterproof rating of 20,000mm hydrostatic head, making it suitable for moderate to heavy downpours.

Is the water repellency permanent?

The H2OShield finish provides initial water repellency, but like all DWR treatments, it can degrade over time with wear and washing. Regular re-proofing is recommended to maintain performance.

Can I wear this jacket in warm weather?

While the jacket is breathable, it is designed for protection against rain. It may become warm in hot, humid conditions. For very warm weather, consider a lighter shell or removing insulating layers underneath.

What does 'fully taped seams' mean?

Fully taped seams mean that a waterproof tape has been applied over every seam stitching on the inside of the jacket. This prevents water from leaking through the needle holes, ensuring complete waterproofing.

How do I clean the jacket?

Machine wash at 30°C with a non-biological detergent, rinse twice, and tumble dry on a low heat setting. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach.

What materials are used in this jacket?

The main fabric is 100% recycled polyester, with a TPU membrane. The mesh lining is 100% polyester, and the taffeta is 100% recycled polyester.

Does this jacket contain PFCs?

No, this jacket features a H2OShield plant-based water repellent finish that is fluorocarbon-free (PFC-free).

Troubleshooting

Jacket is leaking or no longer repelling water effectively.

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. Follow the care instructions to wash the jacket, then tumble dry on a low heat setting to reactivate the DWR. If performance does not improve, apply a dedicated re-proofing spray or wash-in treatment.

Jacket feels damp inside despite not being rained on.

This could be due to inadequate breathability. Ensure the jacket is clean and free from debris that might block the membrane pores. Avoid wearing non-breathable base layers. Check that pit zips (if present) are open.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth and a small brush to remove any dirt or salt. Apply a wax-based lubricant or a silicone spray to the zipper teeth to ensure smooth operation.

Hood adjustment is not holding its position.

Check that the drawcords and toggles are clean and free of debris. Ensure the toggles are fully tightened. If the drawcord is frayed, it may need replacing.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent waterproof and breathable performance (20,000mm HH / 30,000g/m2/24hrs).
  • Made with eco-friendly recycled materials.
  • Stretch fabric enhances comfort and freedom of movement.
  • Multiple storage options with six well-placed pockets.
  • Durable construction suitable for year-round outdoor use.

Cons

  • Requires specific care to maintain water-repellent properties.
  • May be warmer than a shell jacket due to its waterproof membrane.
  • The green colour might not be preferred by all users.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

The Craghoppers Lorton II Waterproof Jacket requires no specific setup. It is ready to wear straight out of the packaging.

Compatibility:

This jacket is designed as outerwear and is compatible with a range of mid-layers for added warmth in colder conditions. Its unisex design makes it suitable for most adult users, though this specific model is sized for men.

Care Instructions:

To maintain the jacket's waterproof and breathable performance, follow these care instructions:

  1. Washing: Machine wash at 30°C with a non-biological detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners or bleach, as these can damage the waterproof membrane and H2OShield finish.
  2. Rinsing: Rinse twice to remove all traces of detergent.
  3. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang dry. Drying helps to reactivate the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish.
  4. Re-proofing: For best results, apply a re-proofing treatment (such as Nikwax or Grangers) after washing and drying, following the product's instructions. This will restore the water-repellent properties of the fabric.
