FAQs
What does 'Isotex 10000' mean?
'Isotex 10000' indicates the fabric's performance rating. '10000' refers to the hydrostatic head in millimeters (10,000mm), meaning it can withstand a column of water 10,000mm high before leaking. It also signifies a breathability rating of 10,000g/m²/24hrs, indicating how much water vapor can pass through the fabric.
How do I find the right size?
Refer to the size chart provided in the product description. The jacket has a standard fit. Chest measurements for size L are 42 inches.
Can the hood be removed?
The hood is designed to be packable and stowable within the collar, but it is not removable.
What type of clothing should I wear underneath?
The jacket is designed to be worn over other layers. For optimal comfort and breathability, layering with moisture-wicking fabrics is recommended.
Is this jacket suitable for extreme cold?
The jacket provides good wind and water protection but is not heavily insulated. For extreme cold, additional insulating layers underneath would be necessary.
How do I care for the DWR finish?
Avoid using fabric softeners or harsh detergents, as they can degrade the DWR coating. Reapply a DWR treatment after several washes or when water no longer beads on the surface.
Troubleshooting
Jacket is no longer fully waterproof.
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. Re-apply a DWR treatment suitable for waterproof clothing.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to use.
Clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth and a small brush. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or wax to the teeth.
Jacket feels clammy inside.
Ensure the jacket is properly ventilated. Check that inner layers are not too thick. The breathability rating (Isotex 10000) is suitable for moderate activity; for very high exertion, consider a jacket with a higher breathability rating.
