FAQs

What is CLIMASCOT® insulation?

CLIMASCOT® is a lightweight insulation material that provides warmth without adding bulk. It is soft, takes up minimal space when compressed, and works effectively as an insulating mid-layer.

Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?

The jacket is water-repellent, meaning it can handle light showers or brief exposure to moisture. For prolonged or heavy rain, a waterproof outer shell would be necessary.

How should I clean this jacket?

The jacket can be machine washed at 40°C with colored detergents. However, it cannot be tumble dried or ironed. For best long-term care, normal professional dry-cleaning is recommended.

Does the jacket have internal pockets?

Yes, the jacket features multiple storage options, including internal pockets, along with a zipped chest pocket and zipped front pockets.

Are the reflectors effective in all lighting conditions?

The reflectors are designed to increase visibility in low-light conditions. While they enhance safety, they do not guarantee visibility in complete darkness.

Can I wear this jacket in very cold weather?

As a primary outer layer, it's best suited for cool or mild weather. In very cold conditions, its lightweight insulation makes it an excellent mid-layer to be worn under a more robust, insulated outer jacket.

What sizes are available for this jacket?

This specific product listing is for size XL. However, the Mascot Advanced Thermal Jacket is available in a range of sizes, including M, XS, XXXXL, XXXL, L, and XXL, in various color combinations.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels too tight or restrictive.

Adjust the elasticated drawstring at the waist and ensure the cuffs are not overly tightened. For significant tightness, consider if the size is appropriate or if the stretch fabric at the sides is being maximally utilized.

Water repellency seems reduced.

Water repellency can diminish over time. Re-treatment with a suitable fabric waterproofing spray designed for polyester may help restore this property. Avoid using fabric softeners during washing, as they can impair water repellency.

Zipper is difficult to operate.

Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper. Gently try to align the zipper teeth. If persistent, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a wax-based product to the zipper teeth to improve glide.
