FAQs

What is the waterproof rating of the Zohra Jacket?

The jacket has a waterproof rating of 30,000mm (hydrostatic head), providing excellent protection against heavy rain.

How breathable is this jacket?

It features a breathability rating of 30,000g/m²/24hrs, allowing for good moisture vapor transfer to keep you comfortable.

Can I wear this jacket in very cold weather?

The Zohra Jacket is a shell layer. For cold weather, you will need to layer insulating items like fleece or down jackets underneath.

What is the H2OShield finish?

H2OShield is a durable water repellent (DWR) finish applied to the fabric that causes water to bead up and roll off the surface, enhancing its waterproof performance.

How do I wash the jacket?

Machine wash on a gentle cycle at 30°C using a non-biological liquid detergent. Do not use fabric conditioner or bleach. Tumble dry on low heat.

What materials are used in the jacket?

The main face fabric and taffeta lining are made from 100% recycled polyester. The membrane is TPU, and the mesh lining is 100% polyester.

Does the hood have adjustments?

Yes, the hood is adjustable and features a reinforced peak to help keep rain away from your face.

What sizes and colors are available?

This specific product is the red variant. The jacket is available in women's sizes 8 to 20. Other color options may be available under different product listings.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is not shedding water effectively

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may need to be reactivated or reapplied. Try tumble drying on a low heat with a damp cloth, or use a specialized re-proofing product following its instructions.

Water appears to be leaking through seams

Ensure all seams are fully taped. If leakage persists, the tape may be damaged. Contact customer support for assessment. Ensure you are not using harsh detergents that can degrade the fabric or seam tape.

Zip is stiff or difficult to move

Gently clean the zip teeth with a soft brush and water. Apply a small amount of wax (like beeswax or a specialized zip lubricant) to the teeth to improve movement. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zip.

Jacket feels clammy inside

This can occur during high-intensity activity. Ensure the main zip and any ventilation zips are open to allow for airflow. The fabric is breathable, but extreme exertion can produce more moisture than can be immediately expelled.

Care Instructions

  • Washing: Machine washable at 30°C on a gentle cycle.
  • Detergent: Use a non-biological liquid detergent. Do not use fabric conditioner or bleach.
  • Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting. For best results, follow with a warm iron setting with a damp cloth to reactivate the DWR finish.
  • Re-proofing: For sustained water repellency, re-apply a waterproofing spray or wash-in treatment periodically, especially after several washes or if water is no longer beading on the surface. Follow the instructions on the re-proofing product.
