FAQs
Is this jacket warm enough for winter?
The Iris 22 Alyssa jacket features lightweight Plumtech insulation, making it ideal for transitional seasons like spring and autumn. It is not designed to be a heavy winter coat and may not provide sufficient warmth in very cold winter conditions.
How do I pack the jacket for travel?
The jacket comes with a dedicated pouch. Simply fold or roll the jacket according to its design and place it inside the provided pouch for compact storage.
What does 'water-repellent' mean for this jacket?
Water-repellent means the fabric is treated to resist water penetration, so light rain or splashes will bead up and roll off. It does not mean waterproof, so prolonged exposure to heavy rain may eventually soak through.
Can I machine wash this jacket?
Yes, you can typically machine wash this jacket. However, always check the specific care label inside the garment for the most accurate washing instructions, usually involving cold water and a gentle cycle.
What is Plumtech padding?
Plumtech is a synthetic padding material that mimics the properties of down insulation, offering warmth, lightness, and compressibility without using animal-derived feathers.
What is the fit of this jacket?
The jacket has a regular fit with a trapeze silhouette, which means it is generally straight through the body with a slight flare towards the hem for a flattering shape.
Troubleshooting
Jacket appears wrinkled after unpacking.
Hang the jacket to allow wrinkles to fall out naturally, or use a low-heat iron on the nylon material, avoiding direct heat on zippers.
Water repellency seems reduced.
Follow care instructions carefully. Harsh detergents or high heat can degrade water-repellent coatings over time. Consider a re-waterproofing treatment suitable for nylon if performance significantly diminishes.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to use.
Ensure the fabric is clear of the zipper teeth. Gently run a pencil lead or a bit of wax along the zipper teeth to lubricate it. Avoid forcing the zipper.
