Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this jacket fully waterproof?

This jacket features a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish, making it water-resistant and suitable for light rain. It is not designed to be fully waterproof for prolonged heavy downpours.

What is the primary material of the jacket?

The jacket is made from 100% Polyester, utilizing softshell and woven fabric technologies.

How should I clean the jacket?

Machine wash at 30°C on a gentle cycle. Avoid bleach, high heat drying, and ironing. Do not dry clean.

Can I wear this jacket in very cold weather?

This softshell jacket offers wind resistance and some warmth. For very cold weather, it is recommended to layer it over insulating base layers or a fleece.

What does 'DWR finish' mean?

DWR stands for Durable Water Repellent. It's a coating applied to fabrics that causes water to bead up and roll off the surface, helping to keep the wearer dry from light moisture.

How do I adjust the fit?

The jacket features a shockcord hem that can be tightened to adjust the fit around the waist, and a full zip with a zip guard for customizable ventilation.

What if the jacket doesn't fit well?

This product is available in various sizes. Please consult a sizing chart to ensure you select the correct size for your measurements. The adjustable hem can also help fine-tune the fit.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels damp inside

Ensure the jacket is not overly saturated; the DWR finish is for light moisture. Check if the garment was washed with fabric softener, as this can impair breathability and water repellency. Air dry thoroughly.

Zipper is stiff or sticking

Gently work the zipper up and down. You can try applying a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper.

Loss of water repellency

The DWR finish may have worn off. Clean the jacket according to care instructions and consider applying a new DWR treatment. Avoid using fabric softeners or harsh detergents.

Fit is too loose at the hem

Utilize the internal shockcord at the hem. Pull the cord to tighten the hem around your waist, sealing out wind and drafts.
