FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?
The jacket is described as 'showerproof,' meaning it is designed to withstand light rain or drizzle. For heavy or prolonged rainfall, a more specialized waterproof jacket would be recommended.
What material is the jacket made from?
The exterior is made of nylon, and it features DuPont™ padding with a recycled nylon lining.
How do I determine the correct size?
Refer to the brand's sizing chart or measure your chest and waist circumference to compare with the available sizes (XS, S, M, L, XL, XXL, XXXL, XXXXL).
Can this jacket be worn in very cold weather?
While it provides insulation, it is a 'Lite Padded Jacket.' For very cold weather, it is best used as a layer over other warm clothing or under a heavier outer coat.
What is the benefit of the adjustable drawcord hem?
The adjustable drawcord hem allows you to tighten the bottom of the jacket, helping to seal out wind and drafts, and providing a more customized fit.
Are the pockets waterproof?
The pockets are zippered, which helps protect contents from light moisture, but they are not specifically designed to be waterproof. It is not recommended to store electronic devices or items sensitive to moisture in the pockets during heavy rain.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper. Gently try to move the slider up and down. If it persists, a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or wax can be applied to the zipper teeth.
Pockets are not closing securely
Check the zippers on the pockets are fully engaged. Ensure nothing is obstructing the zipper track. If the zipper pull is damaged, it may need professional repair.
Jacket has lost its water-repellent properties
The showerproof finish may need reapplication. Follow the care instructions for washing and consider using a re-waterproofing spray or wash-in treatment suitable for synthetic outerwear, following the product's specific instructions.
