Product Information

Full details

The LeMieux Perri Half Zip Waterproof Jacket is designed for adult females seeking reliable weather protection during outdoor activities, particularly horse riding. Its key benefit is providing 5K/5K waterproof and breathable coverage in a lightweight, unlined design suitable for spring. A potential caveat is its pop-over style, which may be less convenient for quick on-and-off needs compared to a full zip. Key features include taped seams, a removable hood, a half zip, and practical storage pockets.

FAQs

What is the 5K/5K rating?

The 5K/5K rating refers to the waterproofness and breathability of the fabric. It means the fabric can withstand 5,000mm of water pressure before leaking (waterproofness) and allows 5,000g of water vapor to pass through per square meter in 24 hours (breathability).

Can I remove the hood permanently?

The hood is designed to be removable for convenience. It attaches securely and can be detached when not needed, allowing you to wear the jacket without it.

Is this jacket warm enough for winter?

This jacket is unlined and lightweight, designed primarily for protection against rain and wind. For very cold weather, it is intended to be layered over warmer insulating clothing.

How do I clean the jacket?

Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with a non-biological detergent. Do not bleach or use fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low or air dry.

Can I wear this for activities other than horse riding?

Yes, absolutely. The jacket's design and features make it suitable for a wide range of outdoor activities such as walking, hiking, or casual wear in wet or windy conditions.

What does 'pop-over' style mean?

A 'pop-over' style typically refers to a garment that is pulled on over the head, often featuring a partial zip (like a half zip) rather than a full-length front opening.

How should I care for the reflective details?

To preserve the reflective details, avoid high heat in washing and drying. It's recommended to air dry the jacket and avoid ironing directly on the reflective prints.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels damp inside

Ensure the jacket is properly zipped and the hood/cuffs/hem are adjusted to seal out moisture. If the issue persists, the waterproofing may need re-application, or the breathability may be compromised by dirt; clean the jacket according to care instructions.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Check for any fabric obstruction. Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush. Lubricate with a graphite pencil tip or a specialized zipper lubricant if necessary.

Reflective details appear to be fading

This is normal wear over time. Avoid excessive heat during washing or drying, as this can accelerate fading. Ensure the jacket is stored away from direct sunlight.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Effective waterproofing and breathability for reliable protection.
  • Lightweight and unlined for comfort and ease of movement.
  • Versatile features like a removable hood and adjustable hem.
  • Enhanced visibility in low light due to reflective details.
  • Practical storage with the front pouch and zip pocket.

Cons

  • Pop-over style may be less convenient for rapid dressing/undressing.
  • Unlined design might not offer sufficient warmth in very cold weather without significant layering.
  • Waterproofing rating (5K) is suitable for light to moderate rain, but may not withstand extreme downpours.
  • Silicone-dipped drawstrings could potentially wear over time with extensive use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This jacket requires no assembly. Simply unpack and wear. The hood can be attached or detached via a secure fastening system. Adjust the toggle hem and cuffs for a personalized fit.

Care Instructions:

  1. Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle.
  2. Use a non-biological detergent.
  3. Do not bleach or use fabric softeners.
  4. Re-proof periodically with a suitable waterproofing agent to maintain performance.
