Are the pockets waterproof?

Troubleshooting
Water appears to soak through the fabric instead of beading off
The DWR coating has likely worn off. Wash the jacket and reapply a fresh DWR spray or wash-in treatment.
Zippers feel stiff or difficult to close
Clean the teeth of the YKK zippers with a soft brush to remove debris and apply a specialized zipper lubricant if necessary.
Condensation builds up inside the jacket
Ensure you are layering with moisture-wicking base layers rather than cotton, and adjust the ventilation by slightly opening the front zipper.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your jacket continues to perform at its best, proper care is essential. Use the adjustable hood, hem, and cuffs to achieve your preferred fit, ensuring they are tightened during severe weather. For maintenance, machine wash in warm water on a gentle cycle. Always close the YKK zippers before washing to prevent damage. We recommend tumble drying on low heat or line drying, and occasionally reapplying a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment to the exterior to maintain its water-shedding properties. Avoid the use of fabric softeners, as they can clog the pores of the breathable membrane.
