FAQs

What type of weather is this jacket best suited for?

This jacket is best suited for light rain, wind, and cool conditions due to its water-repellent UA Storm technology and lightweight design.

How do I know if I have the right size?

The jacket is designed with a 'Fitted' cut. Check the product's size chart for specific measurements related to chest, waist, and length to find your best fit. It should be snug but allow for movement.

Can I wear this jacket over a fleece or thicker layer?

While it is designed to be relatively streamlined, you can layer it over a thin base layer or a light long-sleeve shirt. Wearing it over very thick mid-layers might feel restrictive due to its fitted nature.

How often should I reapply the water repellent treatment?

Reapplication is recommended when you notice water is no longer beading up and rolling off the fabric surface, typically after numerous washes or significant wear.

Is this jacket fully waterproof?

No, the jacket features UA Storm technology, which makes it water-repellent, not fully waterproof. It is designed to protect against rain and moisture but is not intended for prolonged exposure to heavy downpours.

What does 'recycled polyester content' mean for the jacket?

It means that a significant portion of the fabric used in the jacket's main body is made from recycled materials, reducing waste and environmental impact.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels damp inside despite no external water.

Ensure the back vent is not obstructed and consider if the activity level is generating significant internal moisture. The UA Storm technology prioritizes breathability, so intense exertion may still lead to some perspiration.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Gently try to clear any fabric caught in the zipper. If the issue persists, a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a specialized zipper lubricant can be applied to the teeth.

Water is soaking through the fabric.

The UA Storm water-repellent finish may have diminished over time. Consider reapplying a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment suitable for synthetic athletic wear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This jacket requires no specific setup. It is compatible with most athletic wear and casual clothing. To maintain its performance:

  1. Washing: Machine wash cold with like colors. Do not bleach.
  2. Drying: Tumble dry low. Do not iron or dry clean.
  3. Care for Water Repellency: Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can reduce the effectiveness of the UA Storm technology. Reapply water repellent treatment periodically if performance decreases.
