FAQs

Is this vest waterproof?

It is water-repellent, meaning it can handle light rain or snow, but it is not fully waterproof and will soak through in heavy or sustained rain.

Can I wear this as a mid-layer?

Yes, it is designed to be worn over a base layer and comfortably fits under a larger waterproof or insulated shell.

Does it have internal pockets?

The vest is designed with a sleek profile for athletic use; always check your specific model's pocket configuration for internal storage options.

How do I choose the right size?

The vest follows a standard athletic fit. We recommend checking the size guide to ensure the chest and waist measurements align with your body type.

What is the benefit of bluesign certification?

Bluesign certification ensures that the vest was manufactured using environmentally friendly processes and materials that are safe for both the environment and the end-user.

Troubleshooting

Water no longer beads on the surface

The DWR finish has likely worn off. Wash the garment and apply a spray-on or wash-in DWR treatment to restore the water repellency.

Fabric appears slightly pilled after heavy use

Use a fabric shaver gently on the affected areas to remove pills without damaging the structural integrity of the polyester material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Paramount Softshell Vest, follow these maintenance steps:

  1. Washing: Machine wash in cold water on a gentle cycle. Use a mild detergent and avoid harsh fabric softeners that can degrade the water-repellent finish.
  2. Drying: Air drying is recommended to maintain the fabric integrity. If using a dryer, select the lowest heat setting.
  3. Water-Repellency Maintenance: If the water-repellent finish begins to wear off, use a technical DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray to restore the coating.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material fading.
  5. Compatibility: This vest is designed to be worn over technical base layers or thin fleece sweaters, and works perfectly under a larger shell jacket in inclement weather.
