FAQs
What is the main benefit of this softshell jacket?
The main benefit is its combination of wind resistance, water repellency, and stretch fabric, making it ideal for active wear in changeable weather conditions.
Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?
No, the jacket has a water-repellent finish which is suitable for light showers, but it is not fully waterproof and is not designed for heavy rain.
Can I wear this jacket in cold weather?
It is designed as a midlayer, meaning it can be worn over base layers and under a waterproof outer shell. For cold weather, additional insulating layers would be necessary.
What type of activities is this jacket best for?
It is best suited for outdoor activities such as hill trekking, countryside walking, and general everyday wear where wind and light rain protection are needed.
How do I wash and care for the jacket?
Machine wash at 30 degrees, do not bleach, tumble dry on low heat, do not iron, and do not dry clean.
Does the stretch fabric affect the fit?
The stretch fabric is designed to enhance mobility and provide a comfortable, agile fit. Ensure you select your usual size for optimal comfort and freedom of movement.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels restrictive.
Ensure you are wearing the correct size and that any inner layers are not too bulky, allowing the stretch fabric to function optimally.
Water is soaking through.
The jacket has a water-repellent finish, not full waterproofing. For heavy rain, an additional waterproof outer layer is recommended. Consider re-applying a water-repellent treatment if performance diminishes over time.
Jacket is not wind resistant.
Ensure the zipper is fully closed. The material itself provides wind resistance; if performance has decreased, check for damage to the fabric.
