FAQs
What does a 5,000mm waterproof rating mean?
A 5,000mm rating indicates that the fabric can withstand the equivalent of 5,000 millimeters of water pressure before it begins to leak. This is suitable for light to moderate rain.
How breathable is this jacket?
The jacket is breathable to 5,000g, meaning it can allow 5,000 grams of water vapor to pass through a square meter of fabric in a 24-hour period. This helps to keep you comfortable by allowing perspiration to escape.
Can I wear this jacket in very heavy rain?
While the jacket offers good protection, a 5,000mm rating is best suited for moderate rainfall. For prolonged exposure to torrential rain, a jacket with a higher waterproof rating might be more appropriate.
How do I ensure the Silent Swing technology remains effective?
The Silent Swing technology relies on the fabric's inherent stretch and construction. Proper washing and avoiding abrasive materials will help maintain the fabric's properties.
What is the warranty period for this jacket?
The jacket is guaranteed for one year against manufacturing defects.
Can I use fabric softener when washing the jacket?
No, it is strongly advised not to use fabric softener, as it can clog the pores of the fabric and significantly reduce its breathability.
What material is the jacket made from?
The jacket is made from 100% Polyester.
Troubleshooting
Jacket is no longer waterproof
The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish may have worn off. Clean the jacket thoroughly and re-apply a waterproofing treatment suitable for breathable fabrics.
Jacket feels clammy inside
Ensure the jacket is clean and free of dirt or residue that could block the breathable pores. Check that all ventilation zippers (if present) are open. Avoid using fabric softener during washing.
Zippers are stiff or difficult to use
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and a little water. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or a wax-based product specifically designed for zippers.
