Is this machine washable?

Does it have insulated pockets?

Troubleshooting

Fabric appears to lose water repellency

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) coating may need to be refreshed. Clean the garment according to instructions and apply a technical garment DWR re-proofing spray.

Zipper feels stiff or catches

Check for debris or fabric caught in the teeth. Use a small amount of graphite or a dedicated zipper lubricant to smooth the motion.

Pros and Cons

  • Lightweight construction for easy layering
  • Consistent performance in variable urban weather
  • Designed for a precise, flattering fit

  • Not intended for extreme high-altitude alpine conditions

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because this garment is designed for immediate wear, no complex setup is required. To maintain the integrity of the technical fabrics, always refer to the internal care label. Generally, it is recommended to machine wash in cold water using a mild, non-detergent soap. Avoid using fabric softeners or bleach, as these can compromise the protective qualities of the outer shell. Tumble dry on a low setting or hang to air dry, ensuring the garment is completely dry before storage to prevent moisture buildup in the insulation. For long-term storage, keep the jacket in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the color and material quality.
