FAQs
Is this jacket fully waterproof or water-resistant?
The Rains Long Jacket is designed to be fully waterproof, thanks to its signature PU fabric and welded seams.
How do I determine the correct size?
Refer to the Rains size chart available on their website or product listing. Measure your chest and height for the best fit. Note that it has a regular fit.
Can I wear this jacket in warmer weather?
While the jacket offers breathability through vents, it is primarily designed for rain protection. In very warm weather, it may feel warm due to the PU material, but the vents can help with air circulation.
What is the best way to clean the jacket?
The jacket should be wiped clean with a damp cloth or sponge. Avoid machine washing, bleaching, or tumble drying, as these can damage the material and its waterproofing.
Does the hood have a drawstring?
Yes, the hood features a drawstring to allow for adjustment and a more secure fit around the face.
Are the pockets waterproof?
The side pockets have snap closures, which help protect contents from rain. However, they are not designed for submersion and may not be entirely watertight under heavy downpour conditions.
What does 'fishtail hem' mean?
A fishtail hem is a design feature where the back of the jacket is longer than the front, often with a split or cut resembling a fishtail, providing extra coverage.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels sticky or has a faint odor upon arrival.
This can be due to the PU material and packaging. Air the jacket out in a well-ventilated area for a day or two. Clean with a damp cloth if needed.
Water seems to seep through seams.
Ensure all snap closures are securely fastened. While the jacket is highly waterproof, extreme prolonged submersion could eventually challenge the seams. For typical rain, this should not be an issue.
Fit is not as expected.
Consult the Rains size guide for accurate measurements. The 'regular fit' may differ from other brands. Utilize the adjustable cuffs for minor fit adjustments.
Snaps are difficult to fasten or unfasten.
New snaps can be stiff. Repeated use will loosen them slightly. Ensure the fabric is not bunched around the snap when attempting to fasten.
