FAQs

What type of outdoor activities is this jacket best suited for?

This jacket is ideal for general outdoor activities such as hiking, walking, and travel, especially in unpredictable weather conditions where protection from wind and rain is needed.

How do I clean the jacket?

Machine wash at 30°C on a gentle cycle using a special detergent for waterproof outerwear. Avoid fabric softener and tumble dry on low heat or hang dry.

Can I wear this jacket in very cold weather?

The jacket provides wind and rain protection. For very cold weather, it is recommended to layer it with insulating garments like fleece or down.

What does '2L' in similar jacket names mean?

While this specific product is the 'Stormy Point Jacket', the '2L' in 'Stormy Point 2L Jacket' typically refers to a 2-layer construction, meaning the waterproof membrane is bonded to the outer fabric, with a separate loose inner lining for comfort and durability.

How often should I re-proof the jacket?

The frequency depends on usage and how often the jacket is washed. It's generally recommended to re-proof it when you notice water is no longer beading on the surface, typically after several washes or significant wear.

Is this jacket suitable for high-exertion activities like intense trail running?

The jacket is breathable, making it suitable for moderate to high-exertion activities. However, for very intense activities, consider jackets with enhanced ventilation features if extreme breathability is a priority.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer waterproof

Clean the jacket thoroughly to remove dirt and residues. Re-apply a suitable waterproofing treatment (spray or wash-in) following the product's instructions.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Clean the zipper teeth gently with a damp cloth and allow to dry. Apply a small amount of wax (e.g., beeswax or paraffin) to the zipper teeth.

Jacket feels damp inside despite no external rain

This could be due to insufficient breathability. Ensure the inner lining is clean and free from excessive perspiration or dirt. If the issue persists, consider the ambient humidity or your activity level.
