FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
The jacket features water-repellent technology which is effective against light rain and showers, but it is not fully waterproof for heavy, sustained downpours.
What material is the jacket made of?
This jacket is constructed from high-quality, durable polyester with integrated stretch properties.
How should I clean the jacket?
Machine wash on a cool cycle, use mild detergent, and air dry to protect the water-repellent treatment and padding structure.
Does it have a hood?
No, this model features a standing collar to protect the neck from wind without the bulk of a hood.
Are the pockets secure?
Yes, all three pockets, including the chest pocket, use secure zip fastenings to keep your belongings safe.
Can this be worn as a base layer?
It is best suited as a mid-layer or an outer layer, as its cut is designed to fit over base layers comfortably.
Troubleshooting
Water-repellent coating seems less effective
The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish may need reactivating; tumble dry the jacket on low heat or apply a re-proofing spray designed for softshell jackets.
Zipper feels stiff or stuck
Clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush to remove debris, then apply a small amount of dry lubricant or beeswax to the teeth to improve movement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maintain the jacket's water-repellent properties and material integrity, always follow the care label instructions. Typically, you should machine wash on a cool setting and avoid harsh detergents or fabric softeners that can strip the water-repellent coating. Air drying is recommended to maintain the shape of the padding. When storing, keep the jacket in a cool, dry place and ensure it is clean to prevent damage to the fabric over long periods.
