FAQs

What does 'UA Storm technology' mean?

UA Storm technology is Under Armour's proprietary water-repellent finish that causes water to bead up and roll off the fabric, keeping you dry. Crucially, it achieves this without sacrificing breathability, so you don't overheat during your activities.

Can I wear this jacket in heavy rain?

The jacket offers strong water resistance due to its UA Storm technology. It's excellent for light to moderate rain and wet conditions. For prolonged exposure to heavy downpours, a fully waterproof shell might be more appropriate, but it will keep you dry in typical rainy weather.

Is this jacket warm enough for winter?

This jacket features lightweight, wind-resistant fabric designed for protection against the elements. It provides minimal insulation on its own. For winter use, it's best worn as an outer layer over insulating base and mid-layers for warmth.

How do the reflective elements work?

The reflective taping is designed to catch and bounce back light from sources like car headlights or streetlights. This significantly increases your visibility to others in low-light conditions, enhancing safety during early morning or evening activities.

Why can't I use fabric softeners?

Fabric softeners can leave a residue on the jacket's fabric that clogs the pores and degrades the water-repellent treatment. This will reduce the effectiveness of the UA Storm technology and its ability to keep you dry.

What is 'fluorine-free water repellent treatment'?

This refers to the jacket's durable water repellent (DWR) coating which is made without per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). It's an environmentally friendlier alternative that still provides effective water resistance.

Is this jacket suitable for everyday wear?

Absolutely. While designed for performance, its lightweight nature, comfortable fit, and sleek appearance make it a versatile option for everyday casual wear, especially in unpredictable weather or for commuting.

Troubleshooting

Jacket no longer repels water effectively

Ensure you are following the exact care instructions, especially avoiding fabric softeners, which can degrade the UA Storm treatment. Washing with a technical wash designed for waterproof fabrics can sometimes help reactivate the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating. Info needed: Re-applying a DWR spray might be necessary after prolonged use.

Reflective taping appears less visible

Gently wipe the reflective areas with a damp cloth to remove any dirt or residue that might be obscuring them. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaning.

Zipper feels stiff or snags

Ensure the jacket is clean and free of debris around the zipper teeth. If stiffness persists, a small amount of zipper lubricant (specifically designed for fabric zippers) can be applied. Always zip and unzip gently.

Unpleasant odor develops

Wash the jacket promptly after strenuous activity. Ensure it is completely dry before storing to prevent mildew. Using a sports-specific detergent can help neutralize odors.
