FAQs

What is the waterproof rating of this jacket?

How many pockets does the KX360 Parka Jacket have?

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

Yes, the jacket is designed for extreme weather. It features quilt lining and an Insulatex lining that traps heat quickly, providing excellent thermal insulation.

Can I get my company logo printed on this jacket?

Yes, the jacket is designed with print access, allowing for corporate branding and customization.

How do I care for the waterproof coating?

Follow the care instructions: machine wash at 40°C, do not bleach, tumble dry low, iron low, and do not dry clean. Proper care helps maintain the integrity of the TPU coating and taped seams.

What is the breathability rating?

The jacket has a breathability rating of MVP 2,800g/m2/24hr, which indicates its ability to allow moisture vapor to escape.

Is the hood adjustable?

Troubleshooting

Jacket is not fully waterproof.

Ensure all zippers are fully closed and that no damage exists to the taped seams. Check for wear and tear on the fabric coating. For persistent issues, consider re-applying a fabric waterproofing treatment suitable for TPU-coated materials.

Jacket feels too warm.

The jacket is designed for cold weather. For milder conditions, consider unzipping the front closure for ventilation or layering with lighter base layers. The breathability rating (MVP 2,800g/m2/24hr) helps manage moisture, but significant insulation will retain heat.

Zippers are stiff or difficult to use.

Clean the zipper teeth gently with a damp cloth and mild soap. Ensure no debris is caught in the zipper track. Lubricate the zipper with a silicone-based lubricant or a graphite pencil.

Reflective trim is peeling.

Avoid harsh chemicals and high heat during washing and drying. If minor peeling occurs, carefully iron the affected area on a low setting with a protective cloth over it. For significant damage, repair or replacement may be necessary.
