Product Information

Full details

The Craghoppers Younes Nosilife Jacket is designed for adult males seeking practical, versatile outerwear for outdoor activities. Its key benefit lies in its advanced fabric technology, offering insect repellency, UV protection, and moisture-wicking properties in a lightweight, stretch construction. A potential consideration is its press-stud fastening, which may not be preferred by all users for certain activities requiring a more secure closure.

FAQs

How effective is the insect repellent treatment?

The Nosilife treatment is integrated into the fabric and provides effective, long-lasting protection against a wide range of biting insects, including mosquitoes and ticks, for the lifetime of the garment when cared for correctly.

What is UPF 50+?

UPF stands for Ultraviolet Protection Factor. A rating of 50+ means the fabric blocks over 98% of harmful UV rays, offering excellent protection against sun exposure.

Can this jacket be worn in cold weather?

This jacket is designed for moderate conditions. It is lightweight and offers protection from the elements but does not provide significant insulation. For colder weather, it can be layered over warmer garments.

Is the hood waterproof?

The hood is designed to be lightweight and concealable. While it offers some protection from light rain or wind, it is not fully waterproof and is best suited for dry or mildly inclement weather.

How do I wash the jacket to maintain its properties?

Machine wash at 30°C with similar colours. Do not use bleach or fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low heat or iron on a low setting. Avoid dry cleaning.

What does 'Easy-Care' mean for this jacket?

Easy-Care means the jacket is designed to be low-maintenance. It resists creasing, dries quickly, and is simple to wash, making it ideal for travel and regular use without extensive ironing.

What is the benefit of the stretch fabric?

The elastane in the fabric blend provides stretch, allowing for greater freedom of movement and a more comfortable, adaptable fit during active use.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels slightly stiff after washing.

This is normal for technical fabrics. Tumble drying on a low setting or ironing on a low heat can help restore softness.

Insect repellent effectiveness seems reduced.

The Nosilife treatment is designed to last for the lifetime of the garment. Ensure you are following the recommended washing instructions; harsh detergents or high heat can degrade the treatment over time. Avoid using fabric softeners, which can impede the fabric's performance.

Press studs are difficult to fasten or unfasten.

Ensure the studs are correctly aligned before pressing. If they remain stiff, try working them gently back and forth a few times. Avoid forcing them, which could cause damage.
