This Aigle Gore-Tex Long Parka is designed for adult males seeking reliable protection from the elements without compromising on style. Its key benefit is superior waterproofing and breathability thanks to its Gore-Tex membrane, keeping you dry and comfortable. A potential caveat is that its long cut might be less practical for very active pursuits requiring maximum freedom of movement, though the 2-layer construction aims to mitigate this. Key features include a 2-layer Gore-Tex construction, an adjustable and removable hood, a long protective cut, and reflective details for enhanced visibility.

The parka provides good protection against wind and cold due to its long cut. However, it is a 2-layer shell and doesn't have heavy insulation. For extreme cold, layering with warm mid-layers is recommended.
Machine wash on a warm cycle with a liquid detergent. Avoid powder detergents, fabric softeners, and bleach. Rinse twice and tumble dry on a medium setting to restore water repellency.

A 2-layer Gore-Tex construction means the waterproof and breathable membrane is laminated to the outer fabric. A separate protective inner lining (often a mesh or lightweight fabric) is attached loosely, providing durability and comfort while allowing the outer fabric to 'breathe' more freely.
Reflective details are generally durable but can be affected by excessive abrasion or improper washing. Follow care instructions carefully to maintain their effectiveness.
The long cut provides extended coverage, offering better protection against wind, rain, and cold that might otherwise affect the thighs and lower body.
This indicates the DWR treatment has worn off. Wash the parka according to care instructions, then tumble dry on low heat to reactivate it. If ineffective, apply a new DWR treatment spray or wash-in product.
Ensure zippers and pockets are fully closed. If persistent, the Gore-Tex membrane may need cleaning. Wash with a mild detergent and rinse thoroughly.
Check for any obstructions in the drawcords or toggles. Ensure the hood is properly aligned before attempting adjustments.
