FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?
The jacket has a windproof outer shell, but it is not designed to be waterproof. It may offer some resistance to light precipitation but is best suited for dry, windy, or cool conditions.
How do I determine which side is the 'windproof' side?
The windproof side is the exterior shell, typically made of polyamide. It will feel smoother and potentially have a slight sheen compared to the fleece interior.
Can I wear this jacket in very cold weather?
Yes, the insulating fleece interior provides significant warmth. For extremely cold temperatures, it can be effectively layered over other warm clothing.
How do I clean the embroidered logo?
Follow the general care instructions for the jacket. Avoid harsh scrubbing directly on the embroidered area during washing and ironing.
What are the pocket configurations on each side?
The jacket features separate pockets on each side, accessible from both the fleece interior and the windproof exterior, allowing secure storage regardless of which side is worn outwards.
What is the difference between the polyamide and polyester materials?
Polyamide is typically used for the exterior shell for its wind-resistant properties and durability. Polyester fleece is used for the interior lining to provide insulation and a soft feel.
Can I wear the fleece side out in lighter winds?
Yes, you can wear the fleece side out for warmth. While it won't offer the same level of wind resistance as the polyamide shell, it still provides a barrier and significant insulation.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper. Gently try to move it back and forth. Use a graphite pencil or a small amount of wax on the teeth for smoother operation.
Fleece interior feels less warm after washing.
Check that you are following the care instructions precisely, especially regarding not using fabric softener or tumble drying, which can damage fleece fibers.
Outer shell is not fully windproof.
Verify that the jacket is being worn with the polyamide (smoother, potentially shinier) side facing outwards. Ensure all zippers and openings are fully closed.
