Product Information

Full details

The Mac in a Sac Origin 2 Waterproof Jacket is an essential outer layer for outdoor enthusiasts, commuters, and travelers who require reliable protection against the elements without the bulk of a traditional heavy coat. Designed for adults engaged in activities like cycling, running, or camping, this jacket provides an impressive 10,000mm waterproof rating and breathable fabric to keep you dry and comfortable during active movement. While its lightweight, packable design is perfect for quick storage in a rucksack or car, users should note that as a dedicated shell, it does not provide heavy insulation and is best utilized as part of a layered clothing system in colder temperatures.

FAQs

Is this jacket truly waterproof?

Yes, it features a 10,000mm hydrostatic head rating, which is considered highly waterproof and capable of handling sustained, heavy rain.

Can I wear this in the winter?

The jacket is windproof, which helps with warmth, but it is not insulated. It is designed to be worn over fleece or thermal layers for winter use.

How do I pack the jacket?

The jacket is designed to be folded or stuffed into its own integrated pack bag, which is usually located in the front pocket or a separate internal pouch.

Are the pockets large enough for a phone?

Yes, the two front pockets are sized to accommodate standard mobile phones, keys, and small trail essentials.

Is the hood adjustable?

Yes, it features a concealed, adjustable hood that can be tightened to prevent it from blowing off in windy conditions.

Does it contain harmful chemicals?

No, the Mac in a Sac Origin 2 is certified as PFC and PFOA-free.

Troubleshooting

Water is soaking through the fabric surface

The DWR coating may have worn off. Wash the jacket with a technical garment cleaner and reapply a DWR waterproofing spray.

Feeling damp inside the jacket

Ensure you are using appropriate moisture-wicking base layers. If the ambient humidity is high, the breathable membrane may struggle to vent; try opening the front zip slightly.

Zip feels stiff or sticks

Check for debris in the teeth of the YKK zip. Clean with a soft brush and consider a tiny application of silicone-based zip lubricant if necessary.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extremely lightweight and easy to pack for travel
  • Highly effective against heavy rain and wind
  • Excellent breathability prevents moisture buildup during activity
  • Reflective detailing improves visibility at night
  • Environmentally friendly PFC and PFOA-free materials

Cons

  • Provides minimal warmth, requiring under-layers in winter
  • Does not feature underarm pit zips for extra ventilation
  • The fabric is thin, which prioritizes packability over rugged durability

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To maximize the lifespan of your jacket, follow these guidelines:

  1. Storage: Always ensure the jacket is completely dry before folding it into its packable pouch to prevent mildew or fabric degradation.
  2. Cleaning: Hand wash or use a delicate machine cycle with a technical detergent suitable for waterproof gear. Do not use biological detergents or fabric softeners, as these can strip the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating.
  3. Drying: Air dry the jacket in a shaded area. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as high heat can damage the waterproof membranes.
  4. Restoring Repellency: If water stops beading on the surface after extensive use, consider reapplying a specialized wash-in or spray-on DWR treatment to maintain performance.
