How does the packable feature work?

What does '2.5L' refer to in the product name?

'2.5L' refers to the jacket's construction method, indicating a 2.5-layer waterproof/breathable fabric system which balances durability, waterproofness, and packability.

Are the reflective elements durable?

The reflective elements are integrated into the jacket's design to enhance visibility. While generally durable, their longevity depends on care and washing practices. Avoid abrasive cleaning methods.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer waterproof/water is seeping through.

The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish may have worn off. Clean the jacket according to care instructions and consider reapplying a DWR treatment specifically designed for waterproof outerwear.

Zipper is sticking or difficult to close.

Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. Lubricate the zipper teeth with a graphite pencil tip or a specialized zipper lubricant if the issue persists.

Breathability seems reduced.

The fabric's pores may be clogged with dirt or residue. Wash the jacket using a technical cleaner designed for performance outerwear, following the care instructions precisely.
