Craghoppers Complite IX Hooded Jacket - Blue

The jacket has a warmth rating of 2, which indicates enhanced mid-level insulation suitable for cool to moderately cold weather.

The jacket features a H2OShield durable water-repellent finish, meaning it repels water and water-based stains but is not fully waterproof. It is suitable for light rain and drizzle.

The jacket is designed to be rolled or folded and placed inside its integrated stow bag. The specific method may vary, but generally involves compressing the jacket into the smallest possible volume.

No, it is recommended not to use fabric softener when washing the jacket, as it can negatively affect the durable water-repellent finish.

The H2OShield finish is made from at least 50% plant-based materials and is PFAS compliant.

While it offers good mid-level insulation, it is best suited for cool to moderate temperatures. For extreme cold, layering with additional thermal garments would be recommended.

To maintain water repellency, avoid fabric softeners, tumble dry on low heat after washing, and consider reapplying a DWR treatment periodically, especially after several washes.

Re-apply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment. Ensure the jacket is clean before application, as dirt can hinder performance. Follow the instructions on the DWR product.

Consider layering with an additional thermal base layer or mid-layer for increased warmth, especially in colder temperatures. Ensure the jacket's insulation is not compressed.

Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. You can lubricate the zipper teeth with a pencil lead (graphite) or a small amount of wax.

Wash the jacket according to care instructions, using a small amount of baking soda in the wash cycle. Ensure the jacket is completely dry before storing.
