FAQs
What does Isotex 5000 mean?
Isotex 5000 is a waterproof, breathable, and windproof membrane technology. The '5000' refers to its rating, indicating 5,000g/m²/24 hours for breathability and typically a waterproof rating of 5,000mm.
Is this jacket suitable for extreme cold?
The Thermoguard insulation offers good warmth for winter, but its suitability for extreme cold depends on personal tolerance and layering. It is designed for general winter conditions and may require additional layers for very low temperatures.
How is the sizing for this jacket?
This jacket is available in XXXL. It is recommended to consult the brand's specific size guide for accurate measurements to ensure a proper fit, as sizing can vary between brands and styles.
Can I wear this jacket in heavy rain?
Yes, the Isotex 5000 fabric is waterproof and designed to keep you dry in rainy conditions. The long-lasting water repellency also helps shed water effectively.
How is the jacket made from recycled materials?
The jacket is made from 100% recycled polyester fabric and its Thermoguard insulation is also derived from recycled plastic bottles, contributing to reduced environmental impact.
What is the benefit of the polyester taffeta lining?
The polyester taffeta lining provides a smooth feel against your skin, making the jacket comfortable to wear and easy to put on or take off over other clothing.
Troubleshooting
Jacket is no longer fully waterproof.
The durable water repellency (DWR) may have worn off. Consider re-proofing the jacket with a suitable fabric re-proofer designed for outdoor wear.
Jacket feels damp inside during activity.
While Isotex 5000 is breathable, high-intensity activities can lead to internal moisture. Ensure the jacket is properly zipped and consider wearing moisture-wicking base layers. For very strenuous activities, a jacket with a higher breathability rating might be more suitable.
Insulation feels less effective after washing.
Ensure the jacket is completely dry by tumble drying on a low heat setting as recommended. This helps to restore loft to the Thermoguard insulation.
