FAQs
Is this vest machine washable?
Yes, it can be machine washed on a cold, gentle cycle. Always check the care label inside the garment for specific instructions.
Can I wear this in heavy rain?
The vest is treated with a DWR coating to shed light moisture, but it is not waterproof and is not suitable for heavy or prolonged rain.
Does the hood detach completely?
Yes, the hood is fully detachable, allowing you to customize the look and functionality of the vest.
What does 'medium insulation' mean?
It means the vest is designed to provide warmth for cool to mild weather conditions, but it is not a heavy-duty expedition parka.
Are the materials recycled?
Yes, the vest is crafted from recycled synthetic materials, reflecting a commitment to more sustainable production practices.
How should I store the vest in the off-season?
Store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, preferably on a hanger to maintain its shape.
Troubleshooting
Water begins to soak into the fabric instead of beading off
The DWR coating may be wearing off; consider applying a technical fabric DWR restorer spray designed for synthetic garments.
Drawstring at the hem feels stuck
Check for debris in the toggle and ensure the cord is not twisted; gently pull the cord while pressing the release button to reset the mechanism.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maintain the water-repellent performance of your vest, wash it on a gentle cycle with cold water. Avoid the use of fabric softeners as these can degrade the DWR coating over time. The vest can be air-dried or tumble-dried on a low, delicate setting if necessary. When storing, ensure the vest is completely dry to prevent odors. Because the vest features a classic regular fit, it is compatible with most standard layering systems, from casual hoodies to button-down shirts. Ensure the drawstring at the hem is loosened before putting on or taking off the garment to avoid unnecessary tension on the cinch mechanism.
