FAQs

What is rip-stop polyamide?

Rip-stop polyamide is a strong, durable fabric woven with a special reinforcing technique that makes it resistant to tearing and ripping. It's lightweight yet provides excellent protection.

How do I wash the windbreaker?

Refer to the care label on the product. Typically, wash on a gentle cycle with cold water and mild detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners. Air dry.

Is this jacket waterproof?

This jacket is designed as a windbreaker, offering protection against wind and light rain. It is not fully waterproof and may not be suitable for heavy downpours.

What does 'recycled polyamide' mean?

It means that at least 50% of the polyamide material used in this jacket has been sourced from recycled materials, reducing waste and conserving resources.

Can this jacket be worn in cold weather?

While it can be layered over warmer clothing, this jacket is primarily a windbreaker and offers minimal insulation on its own. It's best suited for mild to cool conditions.

How does the packable feature work?

The jacket can be folded and stuffed into its own front pocket. Once packed, it often includes an elasticated belt to secure it, allowing it to be carried easily.

What is the chin protection for?

The chin protection is a small flap at the top of the zipper designed to prevent the zipper slider from irritating or pinching the skin on the chin when fully closed.

Troubleshooting

Jacket won't pack into its pocket easily.

Ensure the jacket is completely dry and clean before attempting to pack it. Fold it as neatly as possible before stuffing it into the pocket.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it persists, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) to the zipper teeth.

Elasticated cuffs feel too loose or too tight.

The elastic is designed for a snug fit to keep wind out. If the fit is uncomfortable, consider if a different size might be more appropriate. The elastic is not adjustable.
