FAQs
Is this jacket insulated?
No, the Columbia Watertight™ II Jacket is a shell jacket. It is waterproof and breathable but does not provide insulation. It is designed to be layered over other clothing for warmth.
How do I clean the jacket?
Machine wash cold with like colors using powder detergent. Tumble dry low. Do not use fabric softener, bleach, or iron the jacket.
Can I wear this jacket in very cold weather?
Yes, you can wear it in cold weather by layering a warm fleece or down jacket underneath. The jacket itself is not designed for warmth but as a protective outer layer.
How does the packable feature work?
The jacket can be folded and stuffed into one of its own hand pockets, transforming into a compact bundle that is easy to carry.
What is Omni-Tech™?
Omni-Tech™ is Columbia's proprietary waterproof and breathable technology that keeps you dry by blocking water from the outside while allowing moisture vapor to escape from the inside.
Does the hood detach?
No, the hood is attached to the jacket but is adjustable for a secure fit.
Troubleshooting
Jacket is no longer waterproof or breathable.
Ensure the jacket is clean and free of dirt or oils. Follow the care instructions carefully, especially regarding washing and drying. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach, as they can damage the waterproof membrane. Consider a re-waterproofing treatment if performance has degraded significantly.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to use.
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a toothbrush and mild soap. Lubricate the zipper with a graphite pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant. Avoid forcing the zipper.
Hood adjustment is loose.
Tighten the drawcords to secure the hood. Ensure the toggles are fully engaged.
