FAQs

What does 'ProTek technology' do?

ProTek technology is designed to provide water resistance, helping to keep you dry by repelling moisture from the surface of the fabric.

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

This jacket is designed for active use and offers some protection against elements like light rain and wind. For very cold weather, it is recommended to layer it with warmer garments.

How do I clean the jacket to maintain its water resistance?

Machine wash cold with like colors using a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach. Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry. Do not iron.

What are the main materials used in this jacket?

The jacket is made from 75% polyamide and 25% elastane.

Can I store my phone securely in this jacket?

Yes, the jacket features zip side pockets that provide secure storage for items like a phone, keys, or cards.

Is this jacket designed for a specific sport?

While engineered for training, its features like water resistance and stretch make it suitable for various outdoor athletic activities such as running, cycling, and general fitness training.

What is the fit like on this jacket?

The jacket features a standard fit with set-in long sleeves, designed to allow for freedom of movement during active pursuits. It's intended for an adult male.

Troubleshooting

Water resistance seems reduced after washing

Ensure you are not using fabric softener or harsh detergents. Consider a specific wash for technical outerwear or reapply a water-repellent treatment according to product instructions.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to use

Gently try to move the zipper up and down. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper track.

Jacket feels restrictive during movement

Verify that the jacket is the correct size. The blend of polyamide and elastane offers stretch, but an ill-fitting jacket will always feel restrictive. Ensure sleeves are not bunched up.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Offers effective water resistance thanks to ProTek technology.
  • Provides secure storage with zipped side pockets.
  • Allows for temperature control with a full-zip design.
  • Ensures freedom of movement for various training activities.
  • Designed for adult males engaged in active lifestyles.

Cons

  • May be too specialized for casual, non-athletic wear.
  • Material composition (75% polyamide, 25% elastane) might be less breathable for extremely high-intensity indoor workouts compared to specialized gym wear.
  • Care instructions need to be followed to maintain water-resistant properties.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This jacket requires no setup as it is a ready-to-wear garment. It is compatible with most athletic apparel worn underneath. To maintain its performance and appearance:

  • Washing: Machine wash cold with like colors. Use a mild detergent.
  • Drying: Tumble dry low or hang dry. Avoid high heat, which can damage the water-resistant coating.
  • Ironing: Do not iron. If necessary, steam on a low setting, avoiding direct contact with logos and prints.
  • Special Care: Do not use fabric softeners or bleach, as these can degrade the ProTek technology and fabric integrity.
