FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?
No, the jacket is treated with a water-resistant coating, making it suitable for light showers and everyday moisture. For heavy rain, a fully waterproof jacket would be more appropriate.
How warm is this jacket really?
The jacket is insulated with microfiber filler and has a laboratory-tested heat rating of -30°C. However, actual performance depends on factors like layering, activity level, and environmental conditions.
Can I wear this jacket for skiing?
While it offers warmth and some water resistance, this jacket is primarily designed for casual wear and light outdoor activities. For skiing, a jacket with higher waterproofing and breathability ratings, along with specific ski features, is recommended.
What is the fit like?
The jacket features a standard fit with elasticated cuffs and hood to help keep warmth in and drafts out. It is designed for comfortable layering over other garments.
How do I maintain the water-resistant properties?
Avoid harsh detergents and fabric softeners when washing. Reapply a fabric-specific water-repellent treatment periodically, especially if you notice water is no longer beading on the surface.
What are the pocket sizes like?
The jacket has two front pockets, which are suitable for storing small essentials like a phone, keys, or for warming hands.
Is the hood adjustable?
The hood is elasticated to fit snugly around the head, but it does not have adjustable drawstrings.
Troubleshooting
Jacket is not shedding water effectively.
The water-resistant coating may have worn off. Consider reapplying a fabric-specific water-repellent treatment. Ensure the jacket is clean, as dirt can affect water repellency.
Reduced warmth after washing.
The internal padding may have clumped. Try placing the jacket in a tumble dryer on a low heat with a few clean tennis balls to help redistribute the filling.
Zipper is sticking.
Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it continues to stick, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or wax along the teeth of the zipper.
Elasticated cuffs feel too tight or too loose.
The elasticity is built into the cuff design and cannot be adjusted. Ensure you have selected the correct size for a comfortable fit.
