FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

The jacket provides wind protection and has a micro-fleece lining for warmth, making it suitable for cool to moderately cold conditions, especially when layered. For extreme cold, consider adding thicker insulation layers underneath.

How do I know if I need to re-waterproof the jacket?

If water no longer beads up and roll off the fabric surface, but instead soaks in or forms wet patches, it's time to reapply a water-repellent treatment.

What does '3000 mvp' and '5000 mm' mean?

'3000 mvp' (Moisture Vapor Permeability) indicates how breathable the fabric is, meaning 3000 grams of vapor can pass through a square meter in 24 hours. '5000 mm' (Waterproof rating) means the fabric can withstand 5000 millimeters of water pressure before leaking.

Can the hood be stored inside the jacket?

The hood is detachable and not designed to be stored within the jacket itself. It should be detached when not in use.

What are the washing instructions for the jacket?

Machine wash at 40°C with a mild detergent. Do not use fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry. Avoid direct heat.

What materials is the jacket made from?

The main fabric is a bonded fabric (300g/m²) with an outer 100% polyester ripstop and an inner 100% polyester micro-fleece. The contrast fabric is also bonded (310g/m²) with a 100% polyester outer and a TPU membrane, and an inner 100% polyester micro-fleece.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels clammy or damp inside.

Ensure the garment is not overly tight, which can restrict airflow. Check that the zippers and cuffs are properly closed. Wash with a mild detergent without fabric softener to restore breathability.

Water is soaking through the fabric.

The water-repellent treatment may have worn off. Reapply a suitable water-repellent finish according to the product's instructions. Ensure all seams and zippers are fully closed.

Hood attachment/detachment is difficult.

Gently align the hood with the attachment points and apply even pressure. If stiff, try flexing the attachment points slightly. Ensure no debris is obstructing the connection.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth. Gently work the zipper back and forth to loosen it.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent combination of water repellency, wind protection, and breathability.
  • Versatile with a detachable hood and adjustable features.
  • Durable ripstop outer fabric with mechanical stretch for ease of movement.
  • Warm and comfortable due to the micro-fleece inner lining.
  • Certified to relevant safety standards.

Cons

  • May not be suitable for heavy, prolonged downpours as it is water-repellent, not fully waterproof.
  • Specific care instructions may be required to maintain water-repellent properties.
  • As a softshell, it may offer less insulation than a dedicated insulated jacket in extreme cold.
  • Only available in unisex sizing, requiring careful attention to measurements.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Herock Trystan Softshell Jacket requires no setup. It is ready to wear upon purchase. The hood can be attached or detached via its fastening mechanism.

Compatibility: This jacket is designed for adult unisex wear and is suitable for a wide range of activities. It can be layered over base layers or lighter mid-layers for added warmth.

Care Instructions: To maintain the jacket's water-repellent and breathable properties:

  1. Washing: Machine wash at 40°C (104°F) with a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can clog the membrane pores and reduce breathability and water repellency.
  2. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang dry. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators.
  3. Re-Waterproofing: Periodically, especially if water no longer beads on the surface, treat the jacket with a water-repellent spray designed for technical outdoor apparel. Follow the product's instructions for application.
