FAQs

Is this jacket fully waterproof?

No, the Portwest Oregon Softshell Jacket is water-resistant, not fully waterproof. It is designed to repel light rain and showers effectively, but prolonged exposure to heavy rain may lead to some water penetration.

What material is the jacket made from?

The shell fabric is 94% Polyester and 6% Elastane, bonded to a 100% Polyester Micro Fleece lining. This combination provides durability, breathability, and warmth.

How many pockets does the jacket have?

The jacket features a total of 5 pockets: two side pockets, a zipped chest pocket for a mobile phone, and three main zipped compartments.

Can I wash this jacket in a washing machine?

Yes, the jacket can be machine washed at 40°C (104°F) with similar colours. Ensure all zips are closed before washing.

What is the UPF rating of this jacket?

The jacket has a UPF rating of 50+, which means it blocks 98% of harmful UV rays from the sun.

Does the jacket have adjustable cuffs?

Yes, the jacket features hook and loop adjustable cuffs, allowing you to secure a snug fit and prevent wind from entering.

What is the 'Texpel™ Splash Eco' finish?

This is an environmentally friendly water-repellent finish applied to the fabric. It causes water to bead up and roll off the surface, enhancing the jacket's resistance to light moisture.

Troubleshooting

Jacket not repelling water effectively

The water-resistant finish may have worn off over time. Consider re-applying a suitable fabric waterproofing treatment designed for softshell or synthetic materials. Ensure the care instructions regarding washing and drying have been followed.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and a mild soap solution. Lubricate the zipper with a graphite pencil (rubbing the tip along the teeth) or a specialized zipper lubricant. Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper.

Jacket feels too warm for the conditions

This jacket is lined with fleece for warmth. For milder conditions, consider wearing it unzipped or layering with lighter clothing underneath. For very warm weather, a lighter, non-fleece jacket might be more appropriate.

Fit is too tight or too loose

Adjust the hook and loop cuffs and the drawcord hem for a more personalized fit. If the overall fit is incorrect, please refer to the size chart and consider exchanging for a different size.
