FAQs

Is this jacket insulated?

No, the Stormy Point 2L Jacket is not insulated. It is designed as a shell layer, intended to be worn over other clothing for warmth.

What type of weather is this jacket best suited for?

This jacket is best suited for wet and windy conditions. Its waterproof and windproof features make it ideal for rain and strong breezes.

Can I wear this jacket in very cold temperatures?

Yes, you can wear it in cold temperatures by layering warm clothing underneath. The jacket acts as an effective windproof and waterproof barrier.

How do I clean the jacket?

Machine wash at 30°C (86°F) on a gentle cycle with a special detergent for waterproof fabrics. Rinse thoroughly and avoid fabric softener. Tumble dry on low or hang dry.

What does '2L' in the product name mean?

'2L' refers to the 2-layer construction of the fabric, which is a standard method for creating waterproof, breathable outerwear.

How often should I re-proof the jacket?

Re-proofing is recommended when you notice water is no longer beading on the surface and the fabric is starting to 'wet out'. This typically occurs after several washes or prolonged use.

Does this jacket have pit zips for ventilation?

The provided product information does not specify the presence of pit zips. Check the detailed product specifications or product images for confirmation.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is not waterproof anymore.

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) coating may have worn off. Clean the jacket and re-apply a DWR treatment according to the product instructions.

Jacket feels clammy inside.

Ensure the jacket is properly ventilated by opening zippers. Check that the breathability is not compromised by dirt or residue; wash with appropriate detergent. For very humid conditions, consider a more breathable mid-layer.

Zipper is difficult to operate.

Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper. Clean the zipper teeth with a brush and apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant or wax.

Seams appear to be leaking.

Check if the seam tape is intact. Minor issues can sometimes be addressed with seam sealer, but significant damage may require professional repair or replacement.
