FAQs

What is the breathability rating of this jacket?

The jacket has a breathability rating of 30000g/m²/24hrs, indicating excellent moisture vapor transfer.

What materials is the jacket made from?

It is crafted from a blend of 70% Polyester and 30% Recycled Polyester.

How do I clean the jacket?

Machine wash on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach. Tumble dry on low or air dry.

Does the hood offer adjustable protection?

Yes, the grown-on hood features a toggle adjuster and a wired peak for customized protection against the elements.

What are the available sizes for this model?

The Freesdale jacket is available in sizes S (38 in), M (40 in), L (42 in), XL (44 in), XXL (48 in), and 3XL (51 in chest circumference).

Are the seams waterproof?

Yes, the jacket features taped seams, meaning they are sealed to prevent water penetration.

Can I wear this jacket in very cold weather?

This jacket is designed primarily for waterproofing and wind resistance. For very cold conditions, layering additional insulating clothing underneath is recommended.

Troubleshooting

Water is seeping through seams.

Ensure the jacket's seams have been properly taped and consider reapplying a DWR treatment to the outer fabric.

Jacket feels clammy inside.

This can indicate reduced breathability. Ensure the jacket is clean, as dirt and oils can clog the pores. Wash according to care instructions and ensure the inside is dry before wearing.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or wax if necessary.

Hood adjustment toggles are loose.

Check if the cord ends are securely fastened. If the cord itself is frayed, it may need to be replaced. The toggles are designed to hold the cord in place.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This jacket requires no assembly. Its primary function is outerwear protection. To maintain its performance and longevity:

  • Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners or bleach.
  • Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang to air dry. Ensure the jacket is completely dry before storing.
  • Waterproofing: For best results, re-apply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment periodically, following the product's instructions, especially if water no longer beads on the surface.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally hung to prevent creasing.
