Extended Product Information
FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
It is water-resistant. The 600mm PU coating protects against light rain and wind, but it is not intended for heavy, prolonged downpours.
How do I pack the jacket?
Locate the interior chest pocket pouch, turn it inside out, and carefully fold the jacket into the pouch until it is fully contained.
Is the material breathable?
Yes, the internal mesh lining helps manage moisture and airflow during physical activity.
Can I put this in the dryer?
It is highly recommended to air dry the garment to protect the PU coating and prevent damage to the recycled fabric.
What does the Mega Lab collaboration represent?
It represents a partnership focused on redefining how society experiences science, highlighting sustainable solutions for ocean protection used by surfers and artists.
Troubleshooting
Water begins soaking through the fabric
The PU coating may be wearing thin. Re-apply a specialized DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray after cleaning to restore the barrier.
Jacket is difficult to pack into the internal pocket
Ensure you are folding the fabric systematically rather than stuffing it; take your time to push the material into the corners of the pouch to maintain a flat shape.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Constructed from sustainable recycled materials
- Lightweight and highly portable packable design
- Effectively blocks wind and light moisture
- Comfortable mesh lining for breathability
- Versatile style suitable for both active and casual wear
Cons
- Not intended for heavy or prolonged rain exposure
- Minimal thermal insulation compared to insulated jackets
- Requires careful washing to maintain the PU coating integrity
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your windbreaker, follow these care instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash on a cold, gentle cycle to protect the PU coating and fabric integrity.
- Drying: Air dry is recommended. Avoid high-heat tumble drying, as this can degrade the synthetic ripstop fibers and the water-resistant coating.
- Storage: Ensure the jacket is completely dry before folding it into the packable chest pouch to prevent mildew or odor.
- Compatibility: The athletic cut allows for easy layering over t-shirts or thin base layers, but it may feel tight if worn over thick hoodies or heavy sweaters.
