Gore-Tex is a waterproof, windproof, and breathable fabric designed to keep you dry and comfortable in various weather conditions. It features a membrane with tiny pores that are too small for water droplets to pass through but large enough for water vapor from sweat to escape.
Machine wash on a gentle cycle with cold water (30°C/86°F) using a technical garment cleaner. Avoid using standard detergents, fabric softeners, and bleach.
Yes, you can tumble dry your jacket on low heat. A short cycle can help reactivate the durable water repellent (DWR) finish.
If water stops beading on the surface of your jacket, you'll need to reapply a DWR treatment. Follow the product instructions for the specific DWR product you choose.
The Alpine fit is designed for enhanced mobility during active pursuits. It offers a closer, more athletic fit, which may feel snug compared to a more relaxed fit.
The jacket's pockets have YKK WR zippers to provide weather resistance, but they are not fully waterproof. It's recommended to store sensitive items in a waterproof bag inside the pockets.
Mountain Equipment provides a warranty against manufacturing defects. The specific warranty period may vary; please refer to the product documentation or contact Mountain Equipment customer service for details.
Wash and reapply DWR treatment. Check for any damage to the fabric, such as tears or abrasions.
Clean the zippers with a soft brush and warm water. Apply zipper lubricant if necessary.
Adjust the hood toggles to tighten the fit around your face and head.
There is no specific "setup" required. The jacket is ready to wear upon arrival.
Compatibility: The jacket is compatible with standard outdoor gear. Layering with appropriate base and mid-layers is recommended for optimal performance in varied temperatures.
