Product Information

Full details

The K-Way Le Vrai 4.0 Eiffel East is a versatile long parka designed for adults seeking reliable protection against wind and rain in everyday urban or outdoor environments. It offers an excellent balance of technical performance, featuring a 10K waterproof and breathable rating, while maintaining a minimalist aesthetic and a highly convenient packable design. While it provides robust weather shielding, users should note that as a lightweight windbreaker shell, it is intended for layering rather than providing heavy insulation in extreme sub-zero temperatures.

FAQs

Is this jacket machine washable?

Yes, it is machine washable on a delicate cycle. We recommend using a gentle detergent and avoiding fabric softeners to protect the waterproof technical features.

Can I use this in heavy snow?

While the 10K waterproof rating provides protection against rain and sleet, this is a lightweight shell and does not provide thermal insulation for extreme snow or freezing temperatures.

Does the hood adjust?

Yes, the parka features an adjustable drawstring hood that allows you to tighten the fit around your face for better wind protection.

What is the benefit of the ripstop fabric?

Micro ripstop fabric is reinforced with a special weaving technique that makes it highly resistant to tearing and ripping, extending the lifespan of your garment.

How do I pack the jacket?

The K-Way Le Vrai 4.0 is designed to be packable into one of its own integrated pockets. Simply turn the pocket inside out and fold the jacket into it.

Is the jacket unisex?

Yes, this model features a versatile unisex cut and a relaxed fit suitable for all genders.

Troubleshooting

Water appears to soak into the outer fabric

The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating may have worn off. Apply a specialized DWR spray treatment to restore the water-beading effect.

Difficulty packing the jacket into the pocket

Ensure all air is smoothed out of the garment as you fold it, following the manufacturer's specific folding pattern to ensure it fits the pocket constraints.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To keep your K-Way parka performing at its best, follow these care instructions:

  1. Cleaning: Hand wash or machine wash on a delicate cycle using mild, non-bleach detergent. Avoid fabric softeners as they can damage the waterproof coating.
  2. Drying: Air dry the garment in a shaded area. Do not tumble dry or iron the fabric as high heat can compromise the integrity of the heat-sealed seams.
  3. Storage: Ensure the jacket is completely dry before packing it into its storage pocket to prevent mildew.
  4. Compatibility: The relaxed fit makes it ideal for layering over mid-layers, hoodies, or sweaters, allowing you to adapt to varying temperatures throughout the seasons.
