The ARED 35/35K fabric offers a high level of waterproofing (35,000mm water column) and breathability (35,000gsm), providing excellent protection from rain and moisture management during intense activity.
AEP KINEMATICS technology, combined with articulated sleeves, is designed to mirror the body's natural movement, allowing for greater freedom and comfort without restriction during dynamic outdoor activities.
The jacket itself offers windproofing and waterproofing but limited insulation. It is designed as an outer shell, best layered over thermal base layers and insulating mid-layers for warmth in colder conditions.
Reapply the DWR treatment when water no longer beads up and rolls off the fabric surface. This typically occurs after several washes or prolonged heavy use in wet conditions. Following the care instructions for reactivation or reapplication is key.
The jacket is made from recycled polyester stretch fabric, contributing to sustainability by utilizing recycled materials in its construction.
Yes, the technical hood features a wire peak for structure and shape, and the overall hood can be adjusted to provide a secure and protective fit against the elements.
Follow the care instructions. First, try reactivating the existing DWR by tumble drying or ironing. If that doesn't restore performance, you will need to reapply a DWR treatment suitable for technical outerwear.
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish has likely worn off. Wash the jacket with a technical wash and then reactivate the DWR by tumble drying on a low heat or ironing on a low setting (with a cloth barrier). If this is insufficient, reapply a DWR treatment following product instructions.
The breathable membrane may be clogged with dirt or detergent residue. Ensure you are using a technical wash specifically designed for waterproof outerwear and rinse thoroughly. Washing again with an extra rinse cycle might help. Check and clean any vents or pit zips.
Ensure zippers are clean and free of debris. Gently rub the zipper teeth with a graphite pencil, wax, or a silicone-based lubricant designed for zippers. Avoid using oily substances which can damage the fabric.
Check if the fully taped seams are intact. If there are visible signs of damage or separation, it may indicate a defect. Contact customer support. Minor issues might sometimes be addressed with specialized seam sealants, but consult product care guidelines first.
Setup: This jacket requires no initial setup. It is ready to wear straight out of the packaging. Ensure all zips are closed and adjust the cuffs and hem for a secure fit before heading outdoors.
Compatibility: The jacket is designed for outdoor activities and pairs well with base layers and mid-layers for thermal regulation. It is compatible with most hiking backpacks and harnesses. Ensure correct sizing for optimal layering.
