FAQs

What is ProTek technology?

ProTek technology is an advanced fabric treatment that provides water resistance, helping to keep you dry in wet conditions by repelling water from the surface of the garment.

Can this jacket be worn in heavy rain?

The jacket is designed for water resistance, suitable for light rain or damp conditions. For prolonged exposure to heavy rain, a dedicated waterproof jacket would offer better protection.

What type of activities is this jacket best suited for?

It is ideal for training, running, gym workouts, and general active lifestyle activities. Its water-resistant features also make it suitable for commuting or outdoor activities in variable weather.

What material is the jacket made of?

The jacket is made from 75% polyamide and 25% elastane, providing a balance of durability, stretch, and comfort.

How should I wash the jacket?

Machine wash cold with similar colors, use a mild detergent, do not bleach, and tumble dry low or hang dry. Avoid fabric softeners.

Does the jacket have internal pockets?

This model features zip side pockets for secure external storage. It does not specify internal pockets in the product description.

Is this jacket suitable for layering?

Yes, the jacket's design allows for layering over a base layer or t-shirt. For colder weather, it can be worn as a mid-layer under a heavier coat.

Troubleshooting

Zipper is sticking or difficult to move.

Gently pull the zipper up and down. If it continues to stick, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a silicone-based lubricant to the teeth of the zipper. Avoid using oily lubricants that could stain the fabric.

Water resistance seems reduced after washing.

Ensure you followed the care instructions carefully, especially regarding detergents and fabric softeners (which can degrade water resistance). You may need to reapply a water-repellent treatment suitable for technical fabrics, following the product's instructions.

Pockets are not securely closing.

Check that the zippers are fully engaged and pulled completely shut. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper track. If a zipper pull is damaged, it may require repair or replacement.
