Product Information

Full details

The Craghoppers Telesto Hooded Jacket in Red (XL) is an essential insulating mid-layer for adults seeking effective warmth during cooler expeditions. Its primary benefit is superior heat retention thanks to its borg fleece fabric, making it ideal for layering. A potential caveat is its specific design as a mid-layer, meaning it's best paired with outer shells in harsh weather. Key features include its Duke of Edinburgh's Award approval, easy-care fabric, flat-faced fleece back and panels for enhanced warmth, and convenient zipped pockets.

FAQs

Is this jacket waterproof?

No, the Telesto Hooded Jacket is not waterproof. It is designed as an insulating mid-layer and does not offer standalone rain protection. It should be paired with a waterproof outer shell in wet conditions.

What is borg fleece?

Borg fleece is a type of plush, textured fleece fabric that is very soft and provides excellent thermal insulation, trapping warmth effectively.

Can I wear this jacket in very cold weather?

As a mid-layer, it provides good warmth. For very cold conditions, layering it over a thermal base layer and under a robust outer shell will provide optimal protection.

What does 'Duke of Edinburgh's Award approved' mean?

It signifies that the jacket meets the standards and requirements for gear suitable for participants undertaking the Duke of Edinburgh's Award activities, emphasizing durability and functionality for outdoor expeditions.

How do I know if I have the right size?

Refer to the Craghoppers sizing chart available on their website or product listings. The jacket should fit comfortably over a base layer without being restrictive.

Is the hood adjustable?

The product description does not specify an adjustable hood. It is a fixed, integrated hood designed for basic coverage.

Troubleshooting

Fleece pilling after washing.

Gently brush the pilled areas with a soft brush or use a fabric shaver. Avoid harsh detergents and high heat drying.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper. Apply a small amount of graphite pencil lead or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth.

Jacket feels too tight or too loose.

Ensure you have selected the correct size. Refer to the Craghoppers sizing chart for accurate measurements. This jacket is designed for a comfortable mid-layer fit, not overly snug.
