Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this jacket fully waterproof?

Yes, it uses ARED 15/15 fabric and features critically taped seams at the hood and shoulders, providing excellent protection against rain.

Can I wash the Wander Padded Jacket in a standard washing machine?

Yes, but use a mild, technical detergent and avoid fabric softeners, as these can strip away the waterproof treatment.

Does the hood detach?

No, this model features a 'grown-on' hood, meaning it is permanently attached to the jacket structure.

Is the jacket suitable for very cold weather?

The jacket includes high-warmth padding suitable for most cold winter conditions, though you may want to add layers underneath in extreme sub-zero temperatures.

How do I choose the right size?

The jacket is designed for an adult fit. Review the specific sizing guide for your target region and measure your chest and waist to ensure comfort when wearing layers.

Troubleshooting

Water begins to soak through the outer layer

The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating may have worn off. Re-apply a waterproofing spray compatible with technical outerwear.

Zipper feels stiff or catches

Clean any debris from the zipper teeth and ensure the storm flap fabric is not caught in the slide. Use a silicon-based lubricant if necessary.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent balance of warmth and breathability
  • Durable, abrasion-resistant fabric for long-term use
  • Enhanced weather protection with taped seams at critical areas
  • Comfortable fit with inner sleeve cuffs
  • Versatile zip system for temperature regulation

Cons

  • Not intended for extreme professional alpine conditions
  • Polyester material requires specific care to maintain waterproof coating
  • Limited to adult sizing options

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because this is a technical garment, proper maintenance is essential for longevity. To maintain the waterproof properties of the ARED 15/15 fabric, wash the jacket on a gentle cycle with a specialized technical fabric detergent that does not contain fabric softeners. Avoid tumble drying on high heat, as this can degrade the waterproof coating; air drying is recommended whenever possible. When storing the jacket, ensure it is completely dry to prevent mildew. The fit is designed for layering; consider wearing a base or mid-layer underneath for the best results in varying temperature conditions.
