Product Information

Full details

The Craghoppers Younes NosiLife Jacket is designed for adult males seeking practical outdoor apparel. Its key benefit lies in advanced fabric technology that offers protection from insects, UV rays, and moisture, while remaining lightweight and quick-drying. A potential caveat for some users might be its specific fit or the press-stud fastening, which differs from zippers. This jacket combines a blend of recycled and regular nylon with elastane for stretch, featuring a hooded design, multiple pockets, and an easy-care finish.

FAQs

How effective is the NosiLife insect repellent?

NosiLife technology is designed to provide a long-lasting barrier against biting insects. It is integrated into the fabric and is effective for the lifetime of the garment when cared for properly.

Is the hooded hood adjustable?

The jacket features a hooded neckline with a concealed hood. While the description does not specify adjustability, concealed hoods typically offer a neat fit without external drawcords for a streamlined look.

What is the UPF rating and what does it mean?

The UPF (Ultraviolet Protection Factor) rating is 50+. This means the fabric will block approximately 98% of the sun's harmful UV rays, offering excellent protection.

Can this jacket be worn in cold weather?

This jacket is lightweight and designed primarily for protection against insects, sun, and moisture. For cold weather, it is best used as a layering piece over warmer garments like fleeces or insulated jackets.

What is the main difference between the recycled nylon and regular nylon used?

The blend includes recycled nylon, which offers environmental benefits by using materials that have been processed from waste. Both types of nylon contribute to the jacket's durability, lightweight feel, and quick-drying properties.

How should I store the jacket when not in use?

Store the jacket in a cool, dry place. Avoid storing it in direct sunlight or high humidity. You can fold it neatly or hang it; ensure it is clean and dry before long-term storage.

Troubleshooting

Fabric feels stiff after washing

Ensure you are following the recommended washing instructions. Avoid using harsh detergents or fabric softeners, which can affect the fabric's properties. Tumble drying on low heat can help restore softness.

Press studs are difficult to fasten or unfasten

Ensure the press studs are properly aligned before attempting to fasten them. If they feel too tight, try gently working them back and forth a few times. Avoid forcing them, as this could cause damage.

Jacket not drying as quickly as expected

Ensure the jacket is not overloaded in the washing machine and is thoroughly spun. Hang it in a well-ventilated area for best drying results. Avoid drying in direct, intense sunlight for prolonged periods, which can degrade fabric over time.
