Troubleshooting

Water is soaking into the fabric rather than beading off

The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish may have worn off. Apply a technical re-proofing spray to the outer shell after washing.

Zip feels stiff or sticks

Ensure no fabric is caught in the teeth and consider applying a tiny amount of candle wax or specialized zip lubricant to the track.

Jacket feels less breathable during activity

Try adjusting the internal drawcord to create more airflow or partially unzip the two-way front zip to allow heat to escape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your waterproof jacket, follow these care steps:

  1. Cleaning: This garment is machine washable. Use a mild detergent and avoid using fabric softeners, as they can damage the waterproof coating.
  2. Drying: Air dry the coat naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can degrade the seam tape.
  3. Maintenance: If the water starts to bead less effectively over time, consider using a technical re-proofing spray designed for polyester waterproofs.
  4. Storage: Hang the coat in a well-ventilated area when not in use to prevent mildew buildup inside the lining.
