Product Information

Full details

The Mac in a Sac Origin 2 Adult Waterproof Jacket is designed for adults seeking reliable weather protection during outdoor activities. Its key benefit is providing high levels of waterproofing and breathability in a lightweight, packable design. A potential caveat is that while highly water-repellent, it may not be suitable for extreme, prolonged downpours without additional layers. This jacket offers excellent protection against rain and wind, making it ideal for camping, cycling, running, or casual walks, and conveniently stows away in a bag or car.

What does the reflective print logo do?

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer waterproof

Ensure all seams are fully taped and zippers are correctly closed. The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating may need refreshing. Clean the jacket and apply a suitable re-waterproofing treatment.

Hood adjustment is loose

Check that the elastic shock cord and toggle are properly seated and tightened. Ensure the cord lock mechanism is functioning correctly.

Jacket feels clammy inside

This can indicate high humidity or strenuous activity. Ensure the back vent is open and check that you are not wearing too many insulating layers underneath. The jacket's breathability rating is high, but extreme conditions can still lead to internal moisture.

Zipper is difficult to use

Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it persists, check for debris or damage to the teeth.
