No, the jacket features a durable water-repellent finish which is effective against light rainfall or drizzles, but it is not designed for prolonged exposure to heavy rain.
How warm is the Warmloft insulation?
Warmloft insulation is designed to provide good warmth for cold weather. For very cold conditions, layering with additional thermal clothing is recommended.
What is the best way to clean the jacket?
Machine wash on a gentle cycle with similar colors using a mild detergent. Refer to the care label on the garment for specific temperature and washing instructions. Avoid using fabric softeners.
Can I put this jacket in the dryer?
Yes, you can tumble dry the jacket on a low heat setting. Ensure it is completely dry before storing.
What does 'grown-on hood' mean?
A grown-on hood is a hood that is permanently attached to the jacket, rather than being detachable or foldable.
What material is the jacket made from?
The jacket is made from polyester, which is known for its durability and lightweight properties.
Troubleshooting
Jacket loses water-repellency
The Durable Water-Repellent (DWR) finish may have diminished. Wash the jacket according to care instructions and consider reapplying a DWR treatment spray or wash-in product, following the product's specific guidelines.
Reduced warmth or loft
The insulation may be compressed. Ensure the jacket is washed and dried properly, as per the care label. Avoid over-packing it for extended periods.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it remains stiff, a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or wax can be applied to the zipper teeth.
