FAQs
Is the Montar Kathy jacket suitable for hot weather?
The softshell material is breathable, but it is more substantial than unlined mesh jackets. It is generally appropriate for moderate climates, but may feel warm in extreme mid-summer heat.
How should I choose the right size?
This jacket uses European sizing. It is recommended to compare your chest and waist measurements against a standard EU size chart to ensure the correct fit.
Can I machine wash this jacket?
While softshell can sometimes be washed, it is highly recommended to follow the specific garment label. If you do wash it, use a cold, gentle cycle and a garment bag to protect the hardware.
Does the jacket come in other colors?
The Kathy Competition jacket in this range is specifically featured in Blue.
What is the primary benefit of the dual closure?
The dual closure provides a 'locked-in' feel that prevents the jacket from gaping open during riding, ensuring you always look professional in the arena.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty zipping the hidden closure
Ensure the underlying fabric is pulled taut and clear of the zipper track before engaging the slide.
Buttons appearing loose
Check that the backing of the button is securely fastened; if it remains loose, reinforce the stitching before the button detaches completely.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Montar Kathy Competition Jacket lasts for many seasons, proper maintenance is essential. Always check the internal care label for specific washing instructions, though generally, professional dry cleaning or a delicate machine wash cycle without heavy detergents is recommended to protect the elasticity of the softshell. When putting on the jacket, always zip the hidden zipper completely before buttoning the front to avoid unnecessary strain on the buttons. Store the jacket on a sturdy, wide-shouldered hanger to maintain the shape of the lapels and the overall drape of the fabric when not in use.
