FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?

The jacket features a Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish, making it suitable for light rain and drizzle. It is not fully waterproof and is not designed for prolonged exposure to heavy downpours.

How do I clean the jacket?

Machine wash inside out using cold water and a non-biological detergent. Do not bleach or use fabric softener. Tumble dry on a low setting or air dry.

What does 'Extol Stretch' mean?

Extol Stretch refers to a fabric technology that provides enhanced flexibility and freedom of movement. It allows the fabric to stretch in multiple directions, adapting to your body's natural movements.

How often should I re-apply the water repellent finish?

The frequency depends on usage and washing. Typically, re-application is recommended every few washes or when you notice water no longer beads up and rolls off the fabric surface.

Can I wear this jacket as a standalone piece in winter?

It can be worn as a standalone piece in milder winter conditions or as a very effective mid-layer under a waterproof or insulated outer shell for colder temperatures. Its warmth is optimized for its lightweight design.

What kind of filling does it have?

The jacket is filled with Faux Down made from recycled materials, providing warmth and insulation without the bulk of traditional down.

Does it have a hood?

Yes, it features a grown-on hood with stretch binding for a secure and protective fit around the head.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels less warm than expected.

Ensure the Faux Down filling is evenly distributed. If the DWR finish has significantly degraded, moisture absorption can reduce insulation. Consider re-proofing the jacket and ensure it's fully dry before wearing.

Water is soaking through the fabric quickly.

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. Reapply a DWR treatment according to the product instructions to restore water resistance.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. If it persists, apply a small amount of wax (like a candle or lip balm) or a silicone lubricant to the zipper teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper.

Jacket feels bulky or loses its shape after washing.

Ensure the jacket is being washed and dried according to the care instructions. Tumble drying on a low heat with clean tennis balls can help restore the loft of the synthetic filling. Avoid harsh detergents or fabric softeners.

Care Instructions:

  • Drying: Tumble dry on a low setting or hang dry away from direct heat. Ensure the jacket is fully dry before storing.
  • Re-proofing: To maintain the Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish, it is recommended to periodically re-proof the jacket using a suitable spray or wash-in product specifically designed for outdoor apparel. Follow the product's instructions for application.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Avoid crushing the jacket for long periods to preserve the loft of the Faux Down filling.
