FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
No, the jacket has a water-repellent finish, which means it can withstand light showers but is not fully waterproof for heavy rain.
What type of insulation does it use?
It uses Warmloft insulation, a synthetic alternative that provides warmth without the bulk of traditional down.
Can I wear this in very cold weather?
The jacket provides lightweight warmth and is suitable for cool conditions. For very cold weather, it is best used as a mid-layer over other insulating garments.
How do I clean the jacket?
Machine wash at 30°C with a mild liquid detergent. Avoid fabric softener and bleach. Tumble dry on low or air dry.
Are the pockets secure?
Yes, the jacket features zipped pockets, which are secure for storing small items.
What are the Extol Stretch panels for?
These panels are designed to enhance flexibility and freedom of movement, making the jacket comfortable for active pursuits.
Does it have a hood?
Yes, the jacket includes an attached hood for added protection.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels less warm than expected.
Ensure the Warmloft insulation is not compressed for extended periods. Check for any gaps where heat might escape, such as around the cuffs or hem, and adjust stretch binding if necessary.
Water is soaking through the fabric.
The water-repellent finish is designed for light showers. For heavier rain, consider layering with a waterproof jacket. The finish may also diminish over time; re-waterproofing treatments can be applied if needed.
Zippers are stiff or difficult to use.
Ensure the zipper area is clean and free from debris. Gently work the zipper up and down. If persistent, a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or a specialized zipper lubricant can be applied.
Stretch panels feel restrictive.
Confirm the jacket is the correct size. Ensure the stretch panels are aligned correctly with your body's movement. Try layering with thinner base layers underneath.
