FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?
Yes, the jacket is designed for foul weather conditions with waterproof fabric and taped seams to prevent water penetration.
How do I clean the jacket?
You can machine wash the jacket at 40°C with similar colors. Avoid bleaching and dry cleaning. Tumble dry on low heat and iron on a low setting.
Does the jacket have a hood?
Yes, it features a pack-away hood that can be conveniently stored when not in use.
What does '40+ UPF rated fabric' mean?
This means the fabric is rated to block at least 98% of harmful UV rays, providing significant sun protection.
Can I wear this jacket in very cold weather?
This jacket is primarily designed for rain protection. It is lightweight and may not provide sufficient insulation for very cold temperatures on its own. Layering underneath is recommended for cold weather.
What are the storage options?
The jacket includes two pockets for secure storage of small items.
Is the fabric treated with any harmful chemicals?
No, the jacket features an extremely water-resistant PFAS-free Texpel Splash Eco fabric finish and a REACH-compliant PVC coating.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels damp inside.
Ensure the vented back yoke and eyelets are not obstructed. Check that all zippers and fastenings are securely closed during wear. The fabric is waterproof, but high levels of perspiration might still lead to internal moisture if breathability is overwhelmed.
Water is penetrating the seams.
Verify that the taped seams are intact and not peeling. If damage is present, the jacket's waterproof integrity may be compromised.
Jacket is stiffer after washing.
Follow the recommended washing and drying instructions. Avoid high heat settings for drying and ironing. Low heat ironing can help restore flexibility.
