FAQs

Is the jacket suitable for summer riding?

Yes, with the thermal and waterproof liners removed, the VCS ventilation system allows for airflow to help keep you cool, though it is primarily designed for three-season use.

Can I wear my own back protector?

The jacket is prepared for specific SEESOFT Level 2 back protectors (type RV). Please check the product specifications for exact compatibility.

How do I clean the GORE-TEX liner?

The waterproof liner is detachable. It should be hand washed in cool water with mild soap and allowed to air dry completely. Avoid harsh detergents and machine drying.

What is the benefit of the 3L GORE-TEX membrane?

The 3-layer construction provides excellent durability, waterproofness, and breathability. It's designed to keep you dry from the outside while allowing perspiration vapor to escape from the inside.

How do I re-waterproof the jacket?

You can re-waterproof the jacket's outer shell by applying a DWR treatment spray or wash-in product designed for technical outerwear. Follow the instructions on the chosen DWR product.

What sizes are available?

This jacket is available in a range of adult male sizes, typically from S to XXL, and sometimes larger. Please check the specific product listing for available sizes.

Can the waterproof liner be worn on its own?

Yes, the detachable waterproof liner with the 3L GORE-TEX membrane is designed to be worn separately as a rain jacket.

Troubleshooting

Water ingress despite GORE-TEX

Ensure the main zipper is fully closed and waterproof, and check that DWR treatment on the outer shell is still effective. Reapply DWR if necessary. Confirm liners are correctly installed and zipped.

Overheating during rides

Ensure VCS ventilation zippers are fully open. Remove thermal and/or waterproof liners if conditions permit. Consider wearing lighter base layers.

Liners are difficult to attach/detach

Align zippers carefully before attempting to zip or unzip. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper. Use a zipper lubricant if it feels stiff.

Jacket feels bulky

Ensure liners are properly folded or stored when not in use. Adjust fit using the adjustment straps to prevent excessive fabric bunching.
