FAQs
What is Isotex 10000?
Isotex 10000 is a membrane technology that provides a hydrostatic head of 10000mm (waterproofness) and a breathability rating of 10000g/m²/24hrs, making the fabric waterproof, breathable, and windproof.
How do I determine the correct size?
Refer to the size chart provided, paying close attention to chest and waist measurements. The product information includes specific UK size to inch conversions for reference.
Can this jacket be worn in very cold weather?
The jacket is primarily designed for waterproofing and windproofing. For very cold weather, layering with insulating mid-layers like fleece or down is recommended.
How often should I reapply the DWR finish?
Reapply the DWR finish when you notice water no longer beads up on the fabric surface, typically after several washes or significant wear.
Is the jacket machine washable?
Yes, it is machine washable at 30°C on a mild cycle. Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners.
What does 'Grown On Hood' mean?
'Grown On Hood' means the hood is permanently attached to the jacket body, rather than being detachable.
What are taped seams?
Taped seams are seams that have been sealed with waterproof tape, preventing water from seeping through the stitch holes.
Troubleshooting
Jacket is leaking water
Ensure all seams are properly taped and intact. Reapply a DWR finish to the outer fabric. Check for damage to the fabric or zippers.
Jacket feels clammy or less breathable
Clean the jacket thoroughly to remove dirt and residue that can clog pores. Ensure the garment is not layered too heavily underneath, which can impede breathability.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Clean the zipper area with a damp cloth and gently try to work the zipper. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or graphite from a pencil to the teeth.
Hood is not providing adequate coverage
Adjust the toggle adjuster on the hood and ensure the wired peak is positioned correctly to shield your face.
