FAQs
What type of activities is this jacket best suited for?
The jacket is ideal for moderate outdoor activities such as walking, hiking, and casual wear in cool to mild weather. Its design emphasizes warmth and flexibility.
Is the jacket fully waterproof?
No, the jacket has a water-repellent finish, which is effective against light rain and moisture, but it is not fully waterproof and will not withstand heavy downpours.
How do I clean the jacket?
You can machine wash the jacket at 30°C using a mild detergent. Avoid bleach. After washing, tumble dry on a low heat setting.
How can I maintain the water-repellent properties?
After washing, tumble drying on a low heat setting helps to reactivate the water-repellent finish. For optimal results, consider reapplying a specific water-repellent treatment periodically.
Can I wear this jacket in very cold weather?
While the jacket provides good warmth, for very cold conditions, it is recommended to wear it as part of a layering system, adding a thermal base layer and potentially a waterproof outer shell.
What is the benefit of the Extol Stretch panels?
The Extol Stretch panels are placed in key areas to allow for greater freedom of movement, making the jacket comfortable and functional during active pursuits where flexibility is important.
What material is the jacket made from?
The jacket is primarily made from Polyester, with Extol Stretch panels designed to enhance comfort and movement.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels less warm than expected.
Ensure the Warmloft insulation is not compressed. If tumble drying, use a low heat setting to help loft the insulation. Consider layering with an additional thermal layer for colder conditions.
Water droplets are soaking through the fabric.
The water-repellent finish may have diminished. Wash the jacket according to care instructions and tumble dry on low heat to reactivate it. If performance does not return, consider reapplying a specific water-repellent treatment.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to use.
Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to work the zipper up and down. Applying a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or a silicone-based lubricant to the teeth can help ease movement.
Seams feel restrictive during movement.
Ensure you are wearing the correct size. The Extol Stretch panels are designed to provide flexibility, but ensure the main body of the jacket fits well.
