Full details

While it offers excellent storage and utility for trail use, users should note that the polyester construction is optimized for performance in damp conditions rather than extreme sub-zero thermal insulation.

FAQs

Is this jacket fully waterproof?

Yes, it utilizes Craghoppers' Aqua Dry technology, which is specifically designed to be waterproof for outdoor adventure use.

Can I put this in the dryer?

It is recommended to follow the care label, but generally, a low-heat tumble dry can help reactivate the DWR coating on many technical waterproof fabrics.

Is the hood removable?

The hood is an integrated part of the design to ensure maximum seal against the elements.

What should I wear underneath?

For best performance, wear a breathable base layer or a lightweight fleece, avoiding cotton as it retains moisture.

Are the pockets large enough for a modern smartphone?

Yes, the side and inner pockets are designed to accommodate trail essentials, including most modern smartphones.

Troubleshooting

Water starts soaking into the outer fabric instead of beading off

The DWR coating has likely worn off. Wash the jacket with a technical gear cleaner and re-apply a DWR spray or wash-in treatment.

Condensation buildup inside the jacket

While breathable, the jacket cannot vent moisture instantly during extreme exertion. Try layering with moisture-wicking synthetic base layers instead of cotton.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-performance Aqua Dry waterproofing
  • Breathable material for active use
  • Excellent pocket configuration for trail essentials
  • Customizable fit via cuffs and hem

Cons

  • Not intended for extreme arctic cold
  • Material may require periodic reproofing
  • Limited to specific sizing options

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your jacket, always zip all pockets before washing. Machine wash on a gentle cycle using a technical cleaner designed for waterproof gear, avoiding standard detergents that can strip the water-repellent finish. Do not use fabric softeners. Once dry, store the jacket on a hanger in a cool, dry place to prevent the fabric from creasing or developing odors. If the water-beading effect on the surface decreases over time, apply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray after cleaning to restore the factory finish.
