Product Information

Full details

Utilizing high-performance Isotex stretch 20000 fabric, this jacket provides an exceptional balance of heavy-duty waterproofing and breathability, allowing for moisture management during active use. While it excels in durability and weather shielding, users should note that the technical, fitted nature of the design may feel restrictive if layered with excessively thick mid-layers.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for winter mountaineering?

It is an excellent shell layer, though you will need to add appropriate insulating mid-layers underneath for warmth.

How do I clean the Birchdale II?

Machine wash on a cool, gentle cycle using a dedicated technical gear wash; do not use fabric softener.

What does the 20000 rating mean?

This refers to the hydrostatic head test, indicating the fabric can withstand a high column of water pressure before leaking, classifying it as highly waterproof.

Does the hood detach?

No, the hood is integrated into the design to ensure maximum weather protection and structural integrity.

Can I use this for everyday commuting?

Yes, its waterproof capabilities and practical pocket layout make it highly versatile for both urban commuting and wilderness trekking.

Troubleshooting

Water soaking into the outer fabric

The DWR coating has likely worn off; wash the garment and re-apply a technical waterproofing spray.

Condensation building up inside the jacket

Ensure the front zip is managed according to exertion levels and avoid wearing non-breathable cotton base layers underneath.

Pros and Cons

  • Superior 20000mm hydrostatic head waterproof rating
  • Excellent breathability for high-exertion activities
  • Durable polyester fabric with integrated stretch
  • Secure storage with multiple water-repellent zipped pockets

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of the Birchdale II, proper care is essential. Always wash the jacket according to the label instructions, ideally using a specialized technical garment cleaner that will not clog the breathable pores of the fabric. Avoid using standard biological detergents or fabric softeners, as these can strip the waterproof finish. After several washes, it is recommended to apply a spray-on DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment to restore the water-beading properties of the outer shell. Store the jacket in a cool, dry place and ensure it is completely dry before packing it away for extended periods to prevent mildew buildup.
