FAQs

Is this jacket truly waterproof?

Yes, it features heat-sealed seams and a durable water-repellent (DWR) coating to protect against rain and wind.

How do I pack the jacket into its pocket?

The jacket is designed to fold into its own rear pocket; simply turn the pocket inside out and tuck the garment inside until it is fully encased.

What should I do if the jacket feels too baggy?

The Eiffeleast has a relaxed fit. If you prefer a tighter fit, we suggest ordering one size smaller than your usual size.

Can this jacket be used in cold winter weather?

It is primarily a wind and rain shell. While it blocks the wind effectively, it is not insulated and should be layered with appropriate thermal clothing for colder conditions.

Is the hood adjustable?

Yes, the hood includes a drawstring that allows you to tighten it to suit your head size and weather conditions.

Troubleshooting

Water begins soaking into the fabric instead of beading up.

The DWR finish may have worn off. Consider using a technical fabric re-waterproofing spray to restore the water-repellent properties.

The zipper feels stuck or difficult to move.

Ensure no fabric is caught in the internal wind flap. If the zipper remains stiff, apply a small amount of zipper lubricant or run a graphite pencil along the teeth.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Highly packable for easy travel and storage
  • Effective waterproof and windproof protection
  • Durable ripstop fabric with reinforced seams
  • Breathable design prevents overheating
  • Classic minimalist aesthetic for versatile styling

Cons

  • Loose fit may feel too large for some users
  • Limited insulation for extreme cold temperatures
  • Sizing can be tricky due to the relaxed silhouette

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of the garment, follow these care instructions:

  1. Cleaning: Machine wash on a gentle cycle with cold water. Avoid using harsh detergents or fabric softeners that can damage the DWR coating.
  2. Drying: Hang to air dry away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the nylon fibers.
  3. Storage: Ensure the jacket is completely dry before folding it into its pocket to prevent moisture buildup and odors.
  4. Fitment: Given the relaxed silhouette, we recommend trying a size down from your standard fit if you prefer a more structured look.
