This jacket features UA Storm technology, making it water-resistant. It can repel light rain and moisture but is not fully waterproof and may not perform well in heavy downpours.
Machine wash cold with like colors. Use non-chlorine bleach only if needed. Tumble dry on low heat. Do not iron or dry clean. Avoid fabric softeners.
UPF 50+ stands for Ultraviolet Protection Factor 50+. It means the fabric blocks 98% of the sun's harmful UV rays, offering excellent sun protection.
While the jacket has breathability features like back vents, it is primarily designed for protection against water and wind. For extremely hot and humid conditions, you might find it more suitable for early mornings or evenings.
The back vent construction, combined with interior mesh panels, enhances breathability by allowing hot air and moisture vapor to escape from the back of the jacket, keeping you more comfortable during physical activity.
Yes, the jacket features an adjustable hood that can be tightened for a secure fit.
The jacket has secure zippered hand pockets, perfect for storing essentials like keys, a phone, or small trail snacks.
Yes, the main body fabric uses recycled polyester, which is known for its durability and performance characteristics similar to virgin polyester, making it suitable for activewear.
The fluorine-free water repellent treatment may be less durable over time. Wash the jacket according to care instructions, avoiding fabric softeners. Consider reapplying a DWR treatment specifically designed for outdoor apparel.
Ensure the back vents are not obstructed. Check if the interior mesh panels are clean and free of debris. For very high-intensity activities in warm conditions, this jacket is designed for water resistance and wind protection, not maximum ventilation.
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth and allow to dry. You can apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth to improve glide. Avoid forcing the zipper.
Utilize the adjustable hood and bottom hem drawcords for a more snug fit. The encased elastic cuffs also help to secure the sleeves. If the overall fit is incorrect, consult the size chart and consider exchanging for a different size.
Setup: This jacket requires no specific setup. It is ready to wear straight out of the packaging.
Compatibility: Designed for adult males, its sizing is based on standard apparel measurements. The jacket is suitable for a wide range of outdoor activities and can be layered over base or mid-layers for added warmth.
