FAQs

What is the main benefit of the Teflon® coating?

The Teflon® coating provides enhanced resistance to wind and water, helping to keep you dry and comfortable in adverse weather conditions.

How warm is the fleece lining?

The fleece lining is designed to provide good insulation and warmth, making the jacket suitable for colder outdoor temperatures and activities.

Can I wear this jacket in heavy rain?

While the jacket offers good water resistance, it is best suited for light to moderate rain. For prolonged exposure to heavy downpours, a fully waterproof jacket may be more appropriate.

How should I clean the jacket to maintain its water resistance?

Wash the jacket at 30° Celsius with similar colours. Do not use bleach or fabric softeners, and always dry flat away from direct sunlight. Avoid tumble drying and ironing.

Is this jacket suitable for high-intensity sports?

The jacket offers wind and water resistance, but the nylon material may not be as breathable as specialized technical fabrics for very high-exertion activities. It is ideal for moderate outdoor pursuits and casual wear.

What sizes and colors are available?

This specific guide is for the Green, XL size. Other sizes and potentially colors may be available separately.

What does 'Supplex®' material mean?

Supplex® is a registered trademark for a type of nylon fabric known for its softness, durability, and ability to resist fading, shrinking, and wrinkles.

Troubleshooting

Jacket not repelling water effectively

Ensure the jacket is clean and free from dirt or residues. Reapply a suitable water-repellent treatment if necessary, following the product's instructions. Check care label for proper washing methods.

Fleece lining feels matted or less warm

Avoid high heat drying methods like tumble drying. Gently brush the fleece with a soft brush after washing and drying flat. Ensure the jacket was washed according to the care instructions.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to use

Gently try to move the zipper up and down. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth. Avoid forcing the zipper.

Rib-knit cuffs or hem losing elasticity

Ensure the jacket has not been subjected to excessive stretching or improper drying. Follow the recommended washing and drying procedures precisely.
