Trespass Womens Waterproof Parka Jacket Faithful - Green - 16

A 3000mm waterproof rating means the fabric can withstand a 3000mm column of water before it starts to leak. This indicates good protection against light to moderate rain and snow, making it suitable for everyday wear and light outdoor activities in wet conditions.

The fur trim is removable. It's generally best to hand wash the faux fur trim separately with a mild detergent and cold water, then allow it to air dry naturally. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as this can damage the faux fur.

With its padding and furry fleece lining, the jacket offers good warmth for cold conditions. For extreme sub-zero temperatures, you may need to layer additional thermal clothing underneath, or opt for a jacket with a higher insulation rating. It provides excellent protection against cold winds and wet conditions.

Yes, this jacket is suitable for casual hikes or walks in varying weather conditions. Its waterproof, windproof, and breathable properties, along with the longer length and back hem vent for movement, make it a comfortable choice. For very strenuous or technical hikes, you might prefer a lighter, more athletic-cut shell.

'Taped seams' means that a waterproof tape has been applied over the stitching on the inside of the jacket. This prevents water from seeping through the tiny needle holes created during the garment's construction, ensuring a fully waterproof barrier.

We recommend referring to the official Trespass size guide, usually found on the product page or brand website, to ensure the best fit. Measure your bust, waist, and hips and compare them to the size chart. If you plan to wear thick layers underneath, consider sizing up.

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish might be worn off. Try washing the jacket with a technical wash designed for waterproof fabrics, and then re-apply a DWR re-proofing spray or wash-in treatment. Ensure the jacket is clean before re-proofing.

While breathable, the jacket is also padded for warmth. Ensure you are layering appropriately underneath. For high-intensity activity, consider lighter base layers. The 3000mvp breathability will help, but heavy exertion in mild weather can still lead to some internal moisture.

Clean the zipper teeth with a small brush to remove any dirt or debris. You can also apply a small amount of zipper lubricant (wax-based stick or spray) specifically designed for outdoor gear to improve smoothness. Be careful not to get lubricant on the fabric.
