FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

The jacket provides warmth through its softshell fabric and lining, making it suitable for cool to moderate temperatures. For very cold conditions, layering with thermal base layers and mid-layers is recommended.

How do I clean the jacket to maintain its water resistance?

Wash the jacket inside out at 30°C with a mild detergent and rinse thoroughly. Avoid fabric softeners. For best results, re-apply a waterproofing treatment after washing and drying.

What does 'STRETCH softshell fabric' mean?

It refers to a fabric construction that allows for significant expansion and recovery, providing freedom of movement and a comfortable fit. It typically combines wind and water resistance with breathability.

Can I wear this jacket for high-intensity activities?

The jacket offers good breathability for moderate activity. For very high-intensity activities, especially in warmer conditions, you might experience some moisture buildup. It is best suited for moderate exertion or as a protective outer layer.

What is the material composition and its benefits?

The jacket is made from 50% recycled polyester, 47% polyester, and 3% elastane (270 g/m²). This blend offers durability, warmth, stretch for comfort and movement, and incorporates sustainable materials.

How effective is the water resistance?

The jacket features long-lasting water resistance, meaning it can repel light rain and spray effectively. It is not fully waterproof and may not withstand prolonged or heavy downpours without additional protection.

Troubleshooting

Water repellency is decreasing.

Wash the jacket with a specialized technical wash and re-apply a waterproofing treatment suitable for softshell fabrics. Ensure no fabric softener was used during previous washes.

Jacket feels less windproof.

Check for any damage to the fabric or seams. Ensure the zipper is fully closed. Over time, treatments can wear off; consider re-applying a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish.

Reduced breathability or clammy feeling.

This can be caused by accumulated dirt or softener residue. Wash the jacket using a technical cleaner without fabric softener. Ensure it is rinsed thoroughly.
