FAQs

What is the primary purpose of the K-Way Claude Hooded Windbreaker?

Its primary purpose is to provide protection from wind and light to moderate rain, making it suitable for mid-season outdoor activities.

Is this jacket suitable for cold winter weather?

While it offers wind protection, it is designed for mid-season use. For colder temperatures, it's recommended to layer it over insulating clothing such as a fleece or sweater.

How do I pack the jacket into its own pocket?

Typically, you would fold the jacket starting from the sleeves inwards, then fold the body, and finally tuck it into the designated pocket, usually located on the inside or chest area, which then zips closed.

What does 'DWR treatment' mean?

DWR stands for Durable Water Repellent. It's a coating applied to the outer fabric that causes water to bead up and roll off, helping to keep the garment dry.

How should I wash the jacket to maintain its waterproof properties?

Wash at a low temperature with a mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners. It's best to tumble dry on low heat or hang dry. Refer to the garment's care label for specific instructions.

What is the benefit of the back ventilation cut-out?

The ventilation cut-out on the back enhances airflow, allowing heat and moisture vapor to escape, which improves comfort during physical activity and prevents overheating.

Can children wear this jacket?

Yes, K-Way offers this jacket in various sizes, including those suitable for children, as indicated by the 'kids' age group in some sibling variants.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer waterproof.

The DWR treatment may have worn off. Clean the jacket according to care instructions and reapply a DWR finish. Ensure inner seams are still sealed.

Zipper is difficult to move.

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to free any obstructions. If the zipper is stiff, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or a silicone-based lubricant to the teeth.

Jacket feels clammy inside.

This may indicate reduced breathability. Ensure the back ventilation cut-out is not obstructed. If the jacket is dirty, clean it as per care instructions to restore fabric performance.

Hood is not staying up.

Ensure the hood is properly adjusted. Check if the elasticated drawstrings or closures are functioning correctly. If equipped with a drawcord, tighten it around the face.

Care Instructions:

  • Always refer to the specific care label inside the garment for the most accurate instructions.
  • Generally, machine wash at a low temperature (e.g., 30°C or 40°C) with a mild detergent.
  • Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can impair the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment.
  • Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang dry. Do not dry clean.
  • Reapply DWR treatment periodically if water no longer beads on the surface, following product-specific instructions for re-waterproofing sprays or washes.
