FAQs

What does 'Eiffeleast' refer to in the product name?

'Eiffeleast' likely refers to a specific design or collection line from K-Way, possibly indicating a particular length or style variation of the windbreaker.

How do I know which size to order?

Refer to the size chart provided by the retailer or K-Way's official sizing guide. For this unisex model, consider if you prefer a snugger or more relaxed fit when choosing your size.

Can this windbreaker be used in heavy rain?

This windbreaker is designed to be waterproof and windproof, offering good protection against light to moderate rain and wind. For extremely heavy downpours, a more robust waterproof jacket might be necessary.

Is the recycled polyamide as durable as virgin polyamide?

Recycled polyamide generally offers comparable durability and performance to virgin polyamide while having a lower environmental impact.

How compact is the windbreaker when packed?

It folds into its own back pocket, becoming very compact and easy to carry in a backpack or pocket, ideal for travel or unexpected weather changes.

What is the warranty period for K-Way products?

Warranty information can vary. Please check the official K-Way website or consult the retailer where you purchased the product for specific warranty details.

Can this windbreaker be worn over a thick sweater?

While it can be worn over layers, it is designed as a windbreaker and light rain shell. Wearing it over very thick sweaters might feel restrictive due to its standard fit.

Troubleshooting

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. If it persists, a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or a silicone-based lubricant applied to the zipper teeth can help. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper.

Water is not beading off as effectively.

The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish may have worn off over time. Consider re-applying a DWR treatment suitable for waterproof/breathable fabrics. Always follow the product's specific care instructions.

Garment feels less breathable than expected.

Ensure the inner lining is clean and free from dirt or residue, which can impede breathability. Check for any blockages in ventilation areas if present. Wash according to care instructions.

The packable pocket is difficult to use.

Ensure the garment is folded neatly before attempting to place it in the back pocket. Smooth out any large wrinkles to help it fit compactly. Practice folding a few times to get the technique right.
