Omni-Shield™ is a technology that provides advanced repellency against moisture and stains. It helps water bead up and roll off the fabric surface, and resists common stains from liquids.
The Spire Valley™ Novelty Windbreaker is designed for wind and light moisture. While Omni-Shield™ offers good water repellency, it is not a fully waterproof jacket and may not provide adequate protection in heavy or prolonged rain.
The windbreaker features a regular fit. Refer to the brand's sizing chart for specific measurements and compare them to your own. If you prefer a looser fit for layering, consider sizing up.

The 'Novelty' likely refers to the unique geometric and treebark-inspired pattern colour blocking used in the design, setting it apart from standard plain windbreakers.
The windbreaker is made from 100% Nylon, which contributes to its lightweight and durable nature.
The hand pockets are zipped for security but are not designed to be waterproof. They offer protection from light splashes but should not be used for storing items that cannot get wet in heavy rain.
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Dry thoroughly. You can also apply a small amount of wax (like a graphite pencil tip or beeswax) to the teeth.
Ensure you are not using fabric softener, as it can impede water repellency. Consider using a specialized spray to restore the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish, following product instructions.
Carefully work the drawcord through the casing using a safety pin or a small loop attached to the end of the drawcord to guide it.
