FAQs

What does the breathability rating of 30000g/m²/24hrs mean?

This rating indicates that the jacket can allow 30,000 grams of water vapor to pass through each square meter of fabric in a 24-hour period. A higher rating signifies better breathability, keeping you drier from the inside during activity.

How do I find the correct size?

Refer to the size chart provided, which lists chest measurements. For size M, the chest measurement is 40 inches. Measure your chest circumference and compare it to the chart.

Can I wash this jacket in a washing machine?

Yes, the jacket can be machine washed at 30°C using a mild detergent. Avoid bleach and dry cleaning.

What is ripstop fabric?

Ripstop fabric is a woven material that uses a special reinforcing technique that makes it resistant to tearing and ripping. This is achieved by interlacing stronger threads at regular intervals.

How do I maintain the water-repellent finish?

Over time, the Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish can wear off. You can restore it by washing the jacket and then tumble drying on a low heat or using a specific DWR re-proofer spray or wash-in treatment.

Is the hood detachable?

No, the jacket features a 'grown-on' hood, meaning it is permanently attached to the neckline.

What material is the jacket made from?

The jacket is crafted from a durable blend of 70% Polyester and 30% Recycled Polyester.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer fully waterproof

Ensure all seams are sealed and consider reapplying a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish according to product instructions.

Zippers are stiff or difficult to use

Clean the zipper teeth with a brush and apply a silicone-based lubricant or wax.

Jacket feels clammy inside despite being waterproof

This can be due to insufficient ventilation or high humidity. Ensure the hood and cuffs are adjusted properly and consider opening the main zipper slightly if possible.

Fabric shows signs of wear

Inspect for tears and mend if necessary. Ensure proper washing and drying to prolong fabric life.
