FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the Isotex 10000 fabric?

The Isotex 10000 fabric provides a balance of waterproofing to keep you dry from external moisture and breathability to allow internal moisture vapor to escape, ensuring comfort during activity.

How do I know if the jacket is truly waterproof?

The jacket is waterproof due to its Isotex 10000 rating, taped seams, and Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish. The DWR causes water to bead and roll off the surface. Taped seams prevent water from seeping through stitching.

Can this jacket be worn in cold weather?

Yes, the jacket is designed as an outer shell. You can layer it over warm mid-layers (like fleece or down jackets) to adapt it for colder conditions.

What is the breathability rating of this jacket?

The jacket has a breathability rating of 15,000 g/m²/24 hours.

How should I store the jacket when not in use?

For long-term storage, ensure the jacket is clean and dry. Store it in a cool, dry place, ideally hung or loosely folded, rather than compressed in a small bag, to preserve the fabric and DWR treatment.

Are the pockets waterproof?

The pockets are designed to be water-resistant, and the zippers help to keep the contents dry. However, they are not fully submersible, so avoid storing electronics or valuables in them during heavy rain.

How often should I re-proof the jacket?

It's recommended to re-proof the jacket when you notice water is no longer beading on the surface, typically after several washes or significant use. Following the care instructions for washing and tumble drying can help maintain the DWR longer.

Troubleshooting

Jacket no longer feels waterproof (water soaks in)

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. Wash the jacket according to care instructions, then tumble dry on a low heat to reactivate it. If this doesn't help, apply a specific DWR re-proofing spray or wash-in treatment.

Jacket feels clammy or wet inside, despite no rain

This is likely due to trapped perspiration. Ensure the DWR finish is active and the jacket is clean. If using multiple layers, ensure your base layers are also breathable and moisture-wicking.

Zippers are stiff or difficult to use

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a small brush and water. Apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant or wax to the teeth. Avoid using oils that can damage the fabric.

Hood adjustment cord is frayed

Contact the manufacturer or a local outdoor gear repair specialist for replacement or repair of the adjustment cord.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent waterproofing for moderate to heavy rain.
  • High breathability keeps you comfortable during exertion.
  • Adjustable features ensure a snug, weather-resistant fit.
  • Durable construction suitable for regular outdoor use.
  • Practical storage with multiple zippered pockets.

Cons

  • May not be sufficient for extreme, prolonged arctic conditions.
  • Polyester material might not be as soft as natural fibers for some.
  • Requires specific care to maintain water repellency.
  • Hood is concealed, which might add a slight bulk when stored.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

This jacket requires no assembly. Simply unpack and wear. Ensure all zippers are closed before use.

Compatibility:

The jacket is designed as an outer layer for general adult wear. It can be worn over base layers and mid-layers depending on the ambient temperature and activity level. It is suitable for pairing with hiking trousers and boots for a complete outdoor outfit.

Care Instructions:

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

  1. Washing: Machine wash at 40°C (104°F) on a gentle cycle. Use a small amount of liquid detergent. Do not use powder detergent, bleach, or fabric softener.
  2. Rinsing: Rinse twice to ensure all detergent is removed.
  3. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting. This helps to reactivate the Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish.
  4. Re-proofing: For optimal water repellency, periodically re-proof the jacket using a specific DWR spray or wash-in treatment, following the product's instructions. Always re-proof after washing and tumble drying.
