Craghoppers Expert Mens Base Camp II Softshell Vest Water Repellent Work Gilet - Blue - XL

The H2OShield finish is a durable water-repellent treatment that causes rain and water-based stains to bead up and roll off the fabric, helping to keep you dry in light showers and preventing stains.

The vest provides insulation and wind resistance, making it a good layering piece. For very cold weather, it is recommended to wear it over other insulating layers and/or under a heavier, insulated jacket.

You can machine wash the vest at 30°C on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach. Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry.

To restore water repellency, you can tumble dry the vest on a low heat setting for about 20 minutes, or use a DWR reproofing spray according to the product's instructions.

The pockets are zipped for security, but the vest itself is water-repellent, not waterproof. Items stored in the pockets may get wet in heavy rain.

The product description indicates a softshell construction, typically a blend of polyester and other materials designed for flexibility, breathability, and protection.

This specific listing is for the Blue XL size. The Craghoppers Expert Mens Base Camp II Softshell Vest is also available in other sizes (e.g., S, M, XXL, XXXL) and colors, such as Black.

The durable water repellent (DWR) finish may need to be reactivated or reapplied. Try tumble drying on a low heat for 20 minutes or use a specific DWR reproofing spray following the product's instructions.

This vest is water-repellent, not waterproof. For prolonged or heavy rain, a waterproof outer shell is recommended. Ensure the DWR finish is intact.

Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. If it continues to stick, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a specific zipper lubricant to the teeth. Avoid using oil-based lubricants.
