What does 'Packaway' mean?

Is the hood adjustable?

Troubleshooting
Jacket is no longer waterproof.
The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish may have worn off. Clean the jacket and reapply a suitable re-waterproofing spray or wash-in treatment according to product instructions.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or a silicone-based lubricant to the teeth.
Reflective details are peeling.
This can occur with excessive washing or abrasion. Avoid harsh scrubbing on reflective areas and follow care instructions precisely. Minor peeling may not affect overall functionality.
