FAQs

Is this coat suitable for very cold weather?

The Joules HENSLEY Waterproof Coat is primarily an outer shell designed for rain protection and breathability. It is not insulated for extreme cold. For colder temperatures, we recommend layering warm clothing underneath.

How do I maintain the waterproof quality?

To maintain waterproofing, wash the coat according to the care label, typically using a specialized technical wash, and avoid fabric softeners. If water stops beading on the surface, re-apply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment.

Can I adjust the fit of the coat?

Yes, the coat features an adjustable waist with external toggles, allowing you to cinch it in for a more customized and flattering fit.

Does it have a hood, and can it be removed?

Yes, it has a hood that is designed to be packable. It can be zipped away into the collar when not needed, rather than being fully removed.

What kind of activities is this coat best for?

This coat is ideal for everyday use in rainy conditions, commuting, dog walking, and light outdoor activities where reliable rain protection and breathability are key. Its versatile style also makes it suitable for wearing over casual outfits.

What materials is the coat made from?

The main fabric is 100% Recycled Nylon. The upper lining is 100% Polyester, and the lower lining is 100% Recycled polyester.

Troubleshooting

Water is no longer beading on the fabric surface.

This indicates the Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. Wash the coat with a technical cleaner designed for waterproof garments and consider applying a DWR re-proofing spray or wash-in treatment.

Coat feels damp or clammy inside despite being waterproof.

Ensure the coat's breathability features (eyelets, mesh lining) are not obstructed. If the issue persists, the DWR might need re-activation or re-application, as a saturated outer fabric can reduce breathability.

Zipper is sticking or difficult to move.

Clean any dirt or debris from the zipper teeth. Apply a silicone-based zipper lubricant or a wax pencil sparingly to help it glide more smoothly.

The hood isn't zipping away smoothly.

Check if any fabric is caught in the zipper mechanism. Ensure the hood is folded neatly and flat before attempting to zip it into the collar compartment. Lubricate the zipper if necessary.

The Joules HENSLEY Waterproof Coat requires minimal setup. Simply put it on over your chosen outfit. Utilize the zip and popper fastening to secure it. Adjust the external toggles at the waist to achieve your preferred fit and silhouette. If rain is expected, ensure the packable hood is deployed; otherwise, it can be zipped away into the collar.

Care Instructions

Proper care is essential to maintain the waterproof integrity and longevity of your coat.

  • Washing: Machine wash according to label instructions, typically on a gentle cycle with a specialized technical wash for waterproof fabrics. Avoid fabric softeners as they can impair waterproofing.
  • Drying: Air dry thoroughly. Avoid high heat from tumble dryers as it can damage the waterproof coating.
  • Re-proofing: Over time, the durable water repellent (DWR) finish may wear off. If water no longer beads on the surface, consider re-applying a DWR treatment designed for technical outerwear.
  • Materials: Main: 100% Recycled Nylon. Upper Lining: 100% Polyester. Lower Lining: 100% Recycled polyester. Always refer to the garment's care label for precise instructions.
