FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for very cold, sub-zero temperatures?

The jacket is designed for cold weather with its fleece lining and snowproof features. For extreme sub-zero temperatures, layering additional thermal base layers underneath might be necessary.

How do I clean the jacket?

Machine wash on a gentle cycle at 30°C with similar colours. Use a mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low heat or hang to dry.

What does 'DWR Finish' mean?

DWR stands for Durable Water Repellent. This is a treatment applied to the fabric that causes water to bead up and roll off the surface, helping to keep the wearer dry from light rain and snow.

Can the hood be removed?

No, the hood is a 'grown-on' hood, meaning it is permanently attached to the jacket and cannot be removed.

How should I adjust the cuffs?

The cuffs feature adjustable touch fastening tabs. Simply press the tab to tighten the fit around the wrist to prevent snow or wind from entering.

What is the best way to reapply water repellency?

After washing and drying, you can use a re-waterproofing spray or a wash-in treatment designed for outdoor apparel. Follow the specific product's instructions carefully.

Does the jacket have internal pockets?

The product details list two side pockets and one sleeve pocket, all with zips. It does not specify any internal pockets.

Troubleshooting

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to free it. If still stiff, rub a graphite pencil tip or a bit of wax along the teeth to lubricate it.

Water is seeping through the fabric.

The DWR finish may have worn off. Clean the jacket thoroughly and apply a suitable re-waterproofing spray or wash-in treatment according to the product instructions.

Cuffs are not staying securely fastened.

Ensure the touch fastening tabs are clean and free from lint. Press them firmly together. If the hook-and-loop material is worn, it may need replacing.

Fleece lining feels less warm.

Ensure the jacket is clean. Dirt and residue can mat the fleece fibers. Follow the care instructions for washing and drying to restore loft and warmth.
