Portwest Classic Rain Jacket - Navy - L

The jacket is described as 'extremely water resistant' with taped seams to prevent water penetration. While suitable for rain, it is not designed for prolonged submersion.

PFAS-free means the fabric treatment does not contain per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, which are often found in water-repellent finishes but are being phased out due to environmental concerns. Texpel Splash Eco is the specific environmentally friendlier finish used.

Machine wash at 40°C on a normal cycle. Do not bleach, iron, or dry clean. Tumble dry on low heat. Ensure it is completely dry before storing.

UPF stands for Ultraviolet Protection Factor. A 40+ UPF rating means the fabric blocks over 98% of the sun's harmful UV radiation.

Yes, the jacket is designed to be worn as outerwear and can easily fit over regular clothing or work uniforms. Its relaxed fit aids in layering.

The hood is 'pack away', meaning it can be neatly folded and stored within the collar of the jacket when not needed.

This specific guide is for the Navy, Large size. The Portwest Classic Rain Jacket is available in a wide range of colors and sizes, including Black, Orange, Olive Green, and Yellow, in various adult sizes.

This indicates the Texpel Splash Eco finish may be wearing off. Follow the washing instructions carefully. Applying a suitable fabric re-proofer after washing may help restore water repellency.

Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper teeth. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a wax-based lubricant to the zipper teeth.

Check that the vented back yoke and eyelets are not blocked by dirt or debris. Ensure you are wearing appropriate base layers; heavy undergarments can reduce the effectiveness of the venting.
