FAQs
What does '-30°C thermal testing' mean?
It means the jacket was tested in a laboratory environment and found to provide adequate insulation for someone wearing it in temperatures as low as -30°C, assuming typical activity levels and appropriate layering.
How effective is the water resistance?
The jacket is treated with DWR, which causes water to bead and roll off. This is effective against light rain and snow, but it is not fully waterproof and may not withstand prolonged heavy downpours.
Can this jacket be machine washed?
Yes, it can be machine washed on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Refer to the care instructions for detailed guidance.
What is the warranty period?
The jacket comes with a 2-year warranty for guaranteed quality.
Is this jacket suitable for very windy conditions?
The elasticated cuffs and hem help to create a snug fit, which aids in blocking wind. However, for extreme wind, layering might be beneficial.
What material is the jacket made from?
The jacket is made from polyester.
Does the jacket have a hood?
The product description does not specify a hood. Please refer to product images or further details if a hood is a required feature.
Troubleshooting
Jacket not as warm as expected.
Ensure all zippers are fully closed and elasticated cuffs and hem are snug. For colder temperatures, consider layering with a thermal base layer or fleece.
Water is soaking through the fabric.
The DWR treatment may have worn off. Reapply a DWR treatment suitable for polyester fabrics. For heavy rain, a more waterproof jacket may be needed.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Gently try to move the zipper. If it remains stuck, check for any fabric caught in the teeth. You can try applying a graphite pencil lead or wax to the zipper teeth to help it glide more smoothly.
