Product Information

Full details

This Dare 2b Haik 3 Layer Jacket in Green (Size 10) is designed for adult women seeking robust protection during challenging outdoor activities. Its key benefit is the combination of superior waterproof and breathable performance with unrestricted movement, thanks to AEP Kenamatics technology. A potential caveat is that while highly durable, it is specifically tailored for active use, which might mean a more athletic fit than casual outerwear.

FAQs

What does '3 Layer' mean in the jacket's name?

A 3-layer construction means the waterproof/breathable membrane is bonded between the outer fabric and an inner lining, creating a single, durable fabric unit. This enhances durability and comfort.

How do I know if I need to re-apply a DWR treatment?

When water no longer beads up and rolls off the fabric surface, instead soaking in, it's a sign the DWR treatment has worn off and needs to be reapplied. You can test this by sprinkling a little water on the fabric.

Can this jacket be worn in very cold weather?

Yes, the jacket is designed to be windproof and waterproof, making it an excellent outer shell. For very cold conditions, layering appropriate insulating mid-layers underneath is recommended.

Is the Green color accurate to the images?

Colors can vary slightly depending on screen settings and lighting. The 'Green' is a specific shade offered by Dare 2b, intended for outdoor visibility and style.

What is AEP Kenamatics technology?

AEP Kenamatics is Dare 2b's technology that focuses on ergonomic design and articulation at key movement points. It ensures the garment works with your body's natural motion, allowing for unrestricted performance.

Are the taped seams visible?

The taped seams are typically sealed on the inside of the jacket to ensure full waterproofing. They are designed to be discreet and do not typically affect the jacket's external appearance.

What is the difference between ARED 20/30 and other waterproof ratings?

ARED 20/30 indicates a high level of waterproofness (20,000mm rating) and breathability (30,000g/m²/24hr rating), suitable for extreme weather conditions and high-energy activities.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is not fully waterproof.

Ensure all seams are properly sealed and check the DWR finish. If water no longer beads on the surface, it may be time to re-apply a DWR treatment. Follow the care instructions for washing and drying to reactivate the DWR.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a small brush and water. Apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant or graphite from a pencil to the teeth. Avoid forcing the zipper.

Breathability seems reduced.

The fabric may be blocked by dirt or detergent residue. Wash the jacket according to care instructions using a technical cleaner and ensure a thorough rinse. Check underarm vents are clear of obstructions.

Fit feels restrictive during movement.

Ensure you are wearing appropriate base and mid-layers that are not too bulky. The jacket is designed for an athletic fit; try adjusting the cuffs and hem for optimal comfort.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent waterproof and breathable performance for diverse weather.
  • Articulated design allows for a full range of motion.
  • Durable construction with taped seams for longevity.
  • Lightweight and comfortable, even during strenuous activity.
  • Features like underarm zips and a helmet-compatible hood add practical utility.

Cons

  • May have a more athletic fit, which might not suit everyone seeking a relaxed style.
  • Primarily designed for active outdoor use; less suited for casual, everyday wear.
  • Requires specific care to maintain waterproof and breathable properties.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This jacket requires no setup; it is ready to wear out of the package.

Compatibility:

  • Designed for adult women.
  • The helmet-compatible hood is designed to fit over most standard hiking or climbing helmets.
  • Features adjustable elements (cuffs, hem) to accommodate various body types and layering systems.

Care Instructions:

To maintain the jacket's waterproof and breathable properties:

  1. Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle with a technical wash or mild liquid detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach, as they can damage the fabric's membrane.
  2. Rinsing: Ensure a double rinse cycle to remove all detergent residue.
  3. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting for 20 minutes (or as per care label) to help reactivate the durable water repellent (DWR) finish. Alternatively, hang to dry and then iron on a low setting (with a towel barrier) to reactivate the DWR.
  4. Re-proofing: For enhanced water repellency, apply a DWR re-proofing spray or wash-in treatment every few washes or when water no longer beads on the surface.
