FAQs

What does a 10,000 mm waterproof rating mean?

A 10,000 mm rating indicates that the fabric can withstand the pressure of a 10,000 mm column of water before water penetrates. This offers good protection for moderate to heavy rain.

Is the hood detachable?

The product description does not specify if the hood is detachable, but it is described as a 'Hooded Design', suggesting it is likely attached.

Can this jacket be tumble dried?

It is generally recommended to air dry waterproof garments to preserve their water-resistant properties. Always check the care label for specific instructions, but tumble drying on low heat might be possible if specified.

What is the main benefit of the mesh lining?

The mesh lining enhances breathability by allowing air to circulate, which helps to keep the wearer more comfortable and less sweaty during physical activity.

How should I clean the jacket?

The jacket is washable. Follow the care label instructions, which typically involve a cool or gentle machine wash and air drying. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Are the pockets secure?

Yes, the jacket features two secure zipped pockets, suitable for keeping small items safe and dry.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer waterproof

Ensure the jacket is clean and free from dirt or residue. Re-apply a suitable waterproofing treatment designed for outdoor fabrics if necessary. Check care labels for specific re-waterproofing recommendations.

Zipper is stiff or stuck

Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. Apply a small amount of wax (like a candle or lip balm) to the zipper teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper.

Mesh lining feels uncomfortable

Ensure the correct size is being worn, as a poorly fitting garment can cause discomfort. Check for any loose threads inside the jacket that might be causing irritation.
