FAQs

What is the primary material of this jacket?

The jacket is primarily made from 100% Softshell material.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the chest measurements provided in the description: XS (35-36in), S (37-38in), M (39-40in), and so on. It's recommended to measure your chest circumference for the most accurate fit.

Can this jacket be worn in very cold weather?

The jacket provides wind resistance and some warmth, but for very cold conditions, it is recommended to wear it as an outer layer over insulating mid-layers.

Is the jacket suitable for machine washing?

Yes, the jacket can be machine washed inside out at 40°C with a mild detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softener.

How often should I re-proof the jacket?

Re-proofing is generally recommended after several washes or when you notice a decline in the water-repellent beading on the fabric surface.

What is the difference between waterproof and water-resistant?

Waterproof means the fabric can withstand a significant amount of water pressure without leaking, while water-resistant means it can repel water to some degree but may not hold up under prolonged or heavy rain.

Does the jacket have a hood?

The product description does not mention a hood. This model features a stand-up collar with an inner zip guard.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer fully waterproof

Ensure the jacket has been washed correctly without fabric softener. Apply a re-proofing treatment designed for waterproof fabrics as per the product instructions.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper. Gently clean the zipper teeth with a brush and apply a small amount of silicone lubricant or wax.

Jacket feels clammy inside

This may indicate reduced breathability. Ensure the internal lining is clean and free from debris. Re-proofing treatments can sometimes help restore breathability.

Fit is uncomfortable

Adjust the shockcord hem for a tighter or looser fit. For persistent fit issues, consider trying a different size or style.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This jacket requires no specific setup; it is ready to wear upon purchase. It is compatible with standard outdoor activities and work environments. To maintain its performance:

  1. Washing: Machine wash inside out at 40°C with a mild detergent. Do not use bleach or fabric softener.
  2. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang to dry away from direct heat.
  3. Re-proofing: For continued water repellency, use a dedicated fabric re-proofer spray or wash-in product according to the product's instructions, typically after several washes.
  4. Ironing: Do not iron. If necessary, use a cool setting and iron on the reverse side.
