FAQs

What is the primary purpose of the Oakley Latitude Veil Mid Layer?

Its primary purpose is to provide versatile protection and comfort for active outdoor pursuits, featuring wind resistance, water repellency, and enhanced breathability.

Is the hood built-in or removable?

The hood is integrated into the garment's construction and includes a balaclava for full face protection.

What does 'body-mapped breathability' mean?

It means that different materials and constructions (like mesh panels and specific ribbing patterns) are used in different areas of the garment to optimize airflow and moisture management based on where your body generates the most heat and sweat.

How do I maintain the water-repellent (DWR) finish?

The DWR finish can be maintained by washing the garment according to care instructions and periodically applying a DWR re-treatment spray, especially after multiple washes.

Can this be worn as an outer layer in cold weather?

Yes, it can serve as a mid-layer or an outer layer in moderate cold conditions. For extreme cold, layering it over a thermal base layer and under a waterproof shell is recommended.

What activities is this mid-layer best suited for?

It is best suited for high-aerobic outdoor activities such as hiking, trail running, skiing, snowboarding, and mountaineering where temperature regulation and freedom of movement are important.

What material is the front panel made of?

The front panel is made of nylon.

Troubleshooting

Reduced water repellency

Clean the garment according to care instructions. Apply a DWR re-treatment spray to restore water-repellent properties.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper. Gently pull the fabric away from the zipper track. Lubricate the zipper with a graphite pencil or a silicone-based lubricant designed for zippers.

Garment feels clammy during high exertion

Ensure the central zip is partially open for ventilation. The body-mapped breathability should help, but in very high-intensity activities, additional ventilation may be necessary.

Elasticated cuffs or hem losing shape

Avoid overstretching the cuffs or hem when putting on or taking off. Ensure proper washing and drying as per care instructions; avoid excessive heat.
