FAQs

Is this jacket fully waterproof?

The jacket features a durable water repellent (DWR) finish which repels rain and water-based stains, making it water-resistant. It is not designed to be fully waterproof for prolonged immersion or heavy downpours.

What is the primary material of the jacket?

The product description does not specify the exact primary material, but it is a softshell jacket designed for water repellency and wind resistance.

How do I care for the H2OShield finish?

To maintain the H2OShield finish, wash the jacket at 30°C with similar colours and avoid using fabric softeners or bleach. Tumble drying on low heat can help reactivate the DWR. For long-term effectiveness, consider using a DWR re-proofer when needed.

Can I wear this in very cold weather?

The jacket has an insulating layer for warmth, but for very cold conditions, it is recommended to layer it with additional thermal clothing underneath.

What does the XXL size typically correspond to?

XXL is a standard large size, but exact measurements can vary by brand. It's advisable to check the Craghoppers sizing chart for specific garment dimensions.

Are there other colours available for this model?

Yes, this model (MPN: CEL007) is available in other colours such as Blue and Black, along with different sizes.

Troubleshooting

Water repellency seems reduced

The durable water repellent (DWR) finish may wear off over time. Re-apply a DWR treatment suitable for outdoor clothing according to the product's instructions.

Jacket feels less wind-resistant

Ensure all zippers are fully closed and any drawcords are tightened. The wind-resistant properties are most effective when the jacket is sealed.

Zipped pocket is stiff or difficult to use

Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. Apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant or wax to the zipper teeth for smoother operation.
