FAQs

What does UPF 50+ protection mean?

UPF 50+ means the fabric blocks 98% of the sun's harmful ultraviolet (UVA and UVB) rays, providing excellent protection for your skin.

How often should I reapply the water repellent treatment?

The need for reapplication depends on usage and washing frequency. You will notice reduced water repellency when water no longer beads up on the surface. Follow the instructions on the recommended reapplication product.

Can this jacket be used in heavy rain?

The UA Storm technology repels water, making it suitable for light to moderate rain. For heavy downpours, a dedicated waterproof jacket would offer better protection.

What is the main benefit of the ripstop fabric?

Ripstop fabric is woven with a special technique that makes it lightweight yet extremely durable and resistant to tearing and ripping.

Is the jacket suitable for all seasons?

It's ideal for spring and fall, or cooler summer days and evenings. In colder winter weather, it serves best as a windproof and water-resistant outer layer over insulating garments.

What does it mean that the main body fabric contains recycled polyester?

It means that at least 50% of the primary fabric used in the jacket's construction is made from recycled polyester, contributing to reduced environmental impact. Trims and embellishments are excluded from this percentage.

How do I ensure the best fit?

Utilize the adjustable hood and bottom hem drawcords, and ensure the encased elastic cuffs fit snugly around your wrists. Refer to the sizing chart for accurate measurements.

Troubleshooting

Water repellency is reduced.

Reapply a fluorine-free water repellent treatment according to the product's instructions. Ensure the garment is clean before reapplication.

Jacket feels warm or not breathable enough.

Ensure the back vent is open and not obstructed. Check that no other layers worn underneath are restricting airflow. For extreme heat, consider lighter options if available.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to use.

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. Lubricate the teeth with a graphite pencil or a wax-based product if necessary.
