FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?

The Karrimor Funnel Neck Run Jacket is designed with water-resistant properties and DWR treatment, making it effective against light rain and showers. It is not intended for heavy downpours or prolonged exposure to wet conditions.

How do I maintain the water-resistant features?

To maintain water resistance, wash the jacket following the care instructions (max 30°C, mild detergent, no fabric softener) and consider reapplying a DWR treatment periodically, especially if water no longer beads on the surface.

What is the primary purpose of the funnel neck?

The funnel neck provides extra warmth and protection around your neck and chin, shielding you from wind and light rain, enhancing comfort during outdoor activities.

Can I wear this jacket for high-intensity training?

The jacket offers breathability suitable for moderate activity. For very high-intensity workouts where significant heat and moisture are generated, a more specialized, highly breathable running jacket might be preferable.

What material is the jacket made from?

The jacket is made from 100% polyester, offering a balance of durability, lightness, and water resistance.

How many pockets does the jacket have?

The jacket features two convenient pockets for storing small essentials.

Is this jacket suitable for men?

This particular model is designed for women. Karrimor may offer similar jackets for men in different product lines.

Troubleshooting

Water resistance seems reduced.

The DWR treatment may have worn off. Reapply a suitable DWR waterproofing spray or wash following specific re-waterproofing instructions. Avoid fabric softeners during washing.

Jacket feels clammy during intense activity.

While breathable, this jacket is designed for moderate activity. For very high-intensity workouts, consider a more specialized running shell. Ensure zippers are slightly open for increased ventilation if needed.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to use.

Gently try to work the zipper. If it continues to be stiff, apply a small amount of lubricant like graphite (from a pencil lead) or a silicone-based zipper lubricant to the teeth.
