FAQs
What type of weather is this jacket best suited for?
The GEOX Spherica jacket is ideal for mild to moderate weather, offering protection against wind and light rain. It is particularly suited for the transitional seasons like spring and autumn.
How do the Spherica™ straps work?
The Spherica™ straps are detachable internal straps that allow you to wear the jacket like a backpack when you're not wearing it. This is perfect for travel or when you need to free up your hands.
Can this jacket be worn in cold weather?
While the jacket itself is lightweight, it can be layered with warmer clothing underneath to provide additional insulation for cooler temperatures.
How do I clean the jacket?
Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry.
What is the main material of the jacket?
The jacket is made from lightweight stretch nylon fabric.
Is the jacket truly waterproof or just water-repellent?
The jacket is described as water-repellent, meaning it can withstand light rain or moisture but is not designed for heavy downpours like a fully waterproof garment.
What sizes are available?
This particular product listing is for size XXL. The GEOX Spherica jacket is available in a range of sizes from S to XXXXL.
Troubleshooting
Jacket not repelling water effectively
The water-repellent finish may have worn off. Reapply a fabric protector spray designed for technical outerwear and follow the product's application instructions.
Straps are difficult to attach/detach
Ensure you are aligning the straps correctly with the designated attachment points. Check for any debris obstructing the connection. Refer to the product manual or online guide for visual instructions.
Jacket feels too cool for the weather
This jacket is designed for transitional weather. For colder conditions, layer with warmer clothing underneath, such as a fleece or insulated vest.
Mesh lining is uncomfortable
Ensure the jacket is the correct size. If the mesh lining is still uncomfortable, wearing a long-sleeved base layer can provide additional comfort.
