FAQs

Is this jacket waterproof or water-resistant?

The Piper Showerproof Jacket is designed to be water-resistant, meaning it can handle light rain and showers effectively. It is not fully waterproof and may not provide adequate protection in heavy downpours.

What is the best way to clean the jacket?

You can machine wash the jacket on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners or bleach, as these can affect the material's properties. Tumble dry on low or air dry.

How does the adjustable drawcord work?

The drawcord is located at the waist on the inside of the jacket. You can pull on the ends of the cord to tighten it, creating a more defined waistline, or loosen it for a more relaxed fit.

Can I wear this jacket in cold weather?

This jacket is lightweight and primarily offers protection from wind and light rain. For colder weather, it is best worn as an outer layer over warmer clothing like sweaters or fleeces.

What material is the jacket made from?

The jacket is made from 100% polyester, which contributes to its durability and quick-drying capabilities.

Does the jacket have a hood?

Based on the description, the Piper Showerproof Jacket does not explicitly mention a hood. Please refer to product imagery or specific product details for confirmation.

Troubleshooting

Jacket not repelling water effectively after some use.

The water-repellent finish may have diminished. Consider a re-waterproofing treatment suitable for polyester outerwear, following the product's specific instructions.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Gently try to move the zipper. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the slider.

Drawcord at the waist is tangled or not tightening properly.

Carefully untangle the drawcord. If the toggle mechanism is faulty, consult the care label for potential repair options or contact customer support.
