FAQs

What does 'WP 5,000mm, MVP 3,000g/m²/24hrs' mean?

WP 5,000mm indicates the jacket can withstand a water pressure equivalent to 5,000 millimeters, meaning it is highly waterproof. MVP 3,000g/m²/24hrs refers to Moisture Vapor Transmission, meaning 3,000 grams of water vapor can pass through a square meter of fabric in 24 hours, indicating good breathability.

Is the hood detachable?

The hood is designed to be 'pack away', meaning it can be neatly stored within the collar when not in use, but it is not detachable.

How do I ensure the reflective tape remains effective?

Follow the care instructions carefully: wash in cool water, use mild detergent, and avoid high heat drying. High heat can degrade the adhesive and reflective properties of the tape.

What is the UPF rating of the fabric?

The fabric has a 40+ UPF rating, which means it blocks 98% of the sun's harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays.

Can this jacket be worn in very cold temperatures?

This jacket is primarily designed for waterproof and windproof protection. For very cold temperatures, it is recommended to layer insulating clothing underneath.

What materials is the jacket made from?

The shell fabric is Sealtex Ultra, made of 100% Polyester, Tricot Knit, with a PU Coating, weighing 185g.

Is the jacket suitable for all seasons?

Yes, the jacket is suitable for year-round use. Its waterproof and windproof features are beneficial in cooler, wet conditions, while its breathability makes it comfortable in milder, wet weather. Layering is recommended for colder conditions.

Troubleshooting

Water penetration through seams.

Ensure the jacket has been washed and dried according to care instructions. Welded seams are designed to be waterproof, but extreme wear or improper care could affect performance.

Reduced water repellency.

The Texpel™ Splash Eco finish may diminish over time. Consider reapplying a suitable fabric protector spray designed for waterproof and breathable garments.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to use.

Ensure the zipper is clean and free of debris. Lubricate the zipper track with a wax-based product or a silicone spray if necessary. The two-way zip may require a slight adjustment in technique.

Reflective tape appears to be peeling.

Avoid high heat during washing and drying. If minor peeling occurs, do not attempt to reattach with adhesives. Contact customer support if the issue arises shortly after purchase.
