FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

This jacket is a lightweight shell designed for rain protection. It is not heavily insulated. For very cold weather, layering with a warm fleece or jumper underneath is recommended.

How do I pack the jacket into its compact form?

The jacket is designed to fold into a compact form. Typically, you would start by folding the sleeves in, then folding the body in half or thirds, and finally rolling or folding it into its integrated pouch or a designated pocket.

What material is the jacket made of?

The jacket is made from 100% Polyester.

Can I wear a thick jumper under this jacket?

Yes, the jacket is designed to offer a comfortable fit, allowing space for a jumper or fleece underneath for added warmth.

How should I clean the jacket?

Machine wash at 40°C with similar colors using a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low heat or hang to dry.

What does 'packaway' mean?

'Packaway' means the jacket can be easily folded and stored into a small, compact size, making it convenient to carry when not in use.

Does the hood offer good protection?

Yes, the hood is toggle-adjustable, allowing you to cinch it for a snugger fit, providing good protection against wind and rain.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer fully waterproof

The waterproof treatment may have worn off. Clean the jacket and apply a suitable re-proofing spray for polyester, following the product's instructions.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper. Apply a small amount of wax or a specific zipper lubricant to the teeth of the zipper.

Elastic cuffs or hood toggles are loose

Check if the toggles can be tightened. If they are damaged, they may require replacement by a tailor or repair service.
