Troubleshooting
Water soaking through during heavy rain
Verify that all zippers are fully closed and the hood is tightened; if the jacket is older, it may require a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray treatment.
Feeling damp inside the jacket
Ensure you are not over-layering with non-breathable fabrics; the jacket needs to move moisture away from your base layer to function effectively.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maintain the integrity of the waterproof coating, wash the jacket on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent—avoid using fabric softeners which can damage the breathable membrane. Always ensure the jacket is completely dry before packing it away for storage to prevent mildew. The adjustable features allow this jacket to be layered over thin fleeces or base layers, making it a versatile choice for variable climates. When not in use, store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
