FAQs
What does 'MTD technology' mean?
MTD technology refers to Aigle's proprietary system that ensures the garment is waterproof, windproof, and breathable, offering comprehensive protection against the elements.
How do I know if the coat is truly waterproof?
The coat has a waterproof rating of 10,000 Schmerbers, which is considered highly waterproof for outdoor apparel, meaning it can withstand significant water pressure before leaking.
Can this coat be worn in cold weather?
The coat is unlined and designed primarily for protection against rain and wind. For cold weather, layering with insulating garments like fleece or down is recommended.
How effective are the reflective elements?
The reflective prints on the hood, packable bag, and cuff logo are designed to reflect light from sources like headlights, significantly increasing your visibility to others in low-light or dark conditions.
How do I pack the coat into its bag?
Turn the inner pocket inside out, place the folded coat inside, and then use the integrated cord and carabiner to secure it for compact storage.
What is the warranty period for this product?
Information regarding warranty period is not provided in the product details. Please refer to the retailer or Aigle's official website for warranty specifics.
Is this coat suitable for extreme sports?
While the coat offers robust weather protection, its suitability for extreme sports depends on the specific demands. It's excellent for hiking, commuting, and general outdoor activities. For high-exertion sports, breathability is key, which this coat provides.
Troubleshooting
Water is seeping through seams
Ensure seams are intact. For minor wear, specialized seam sealant can be applied. Check care instructions; improper washing may affect water resistance.
Coat feels clammy inside despite rain protection
This can indicate reduced breathability. Ensure the coat is not overloaded with internal moisture from sweat and that the fabric's pores are not blocked. Air out the garment or consider wearing moisture-wicking base layers.
Zipper is difficult to operate
Ensure the zipper is clean and free of debris. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or a graphite pencil to the zipper teeth. Check that the fabric is not caught in the zipper slider.
Reflective print is peeling
Avoid high heat when ironing and refrain from using a tumble dryer. Gently spot clean the affected area if necessary, rather than aggressive scrubbing.
