Full details

This K-Way Le Vrai Claude 4.0 short windbreaker is designed for adults seeking versatile protection against the elements. Its key benefit is its highly packable design, allowing it to be easily stowed in a pocket, making it ideal for unpredictable weather or travel. A potential consideration is its short length, which may offer less coverage than longer styles. This unisex jacket is constructed from an innovative 100% recycled micro ripstop 4.0 fabric, offering enhanced weather resistance and breathability with heat-bonded seams for superior insulation against wind and rain.

FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?

The Le Vrai Claude 4.0 windbreaker is rated for 10,000mm water resistance and is water-repellent, making it effective against light to moderate rain. For prolonged exposure to heavy downpours, a jacket with higher waterproofing specifications might be more suitable.

What does 'recycled polyamide' mean?

Recycled polyamide is made from pre-consumer or post-consumer polyamide waste, which is processed and spun into new yarn. This conserves resources, reduces waste, and lowers the environmental impact compared to virgin polyamide.

How do I ensure the jacket remains windproof?

The jacket features heat-taped seams and a windproof inner flap to keep wind out. Ensure the hood and hem drawcords are tightened, and the front zipper is fully closed for maximum wind protection.

Can this jacket be worn by both men and women?

Yes, this is a unisex jacket designed to fit both men and women. Please refer to the size guide for specific measurements to ensure the best fit.

What is the breathability rating?

The jacket has a breathability rating of 10,000g/m²/24h, which indicates a good level of airflow to help manage moisture and keep you comfortable during physical activity.

How do I wash the jacket?

It is recommended to machine wash the jacket cold with a mild detergent and tumble dry on a low heat setting. Avoid bleach and always check the care label on the garment for precise instructions.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is not fully water-repellent.

Ensure the DWR treatment is intact. Reapply a DWR treatment if necessary, following product instructions. Check that all seams are properly heat-taped and zippers are fully closed.

Jacket feels too warm during activity.

Open the front zipper partially or fully for increased ventilation. Utilize the back ventilation cut-out. If significant warmth is an issue, consider wearing lighter layers underneath or opting for a less insulated jacket.

Zipper is difficult to use.

Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper. Gently try to realign the zipper. If persistent, use a graphite pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant on the teeth.

Jacket is hard to fold into its pocket.

Ensure the jacket is completely dry and laid out flat before folding. Fold it neatly and systematically into the designated pocket.
