Product Information

Full details

The Canterbury Club Vaposhield Full Zip Waterproof Jacket in Black (Size S) is designed for adult males seeking reliable weather protection. Its key benefit is offering water resistance and durability in a lightweight package, making it ideal for outdoor activities. A potential consideration is that while water-resistant, it is not fully waterproof, so prolonged heavy downpours may still lead to some moisture penetration. This jacket features Vaposhield technology, a full zip fastening, a hooded design with a standing collar, elasticated cuffs, and toggle hem for adjustable fit, along with two zipped side pockets.

FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the Vaposhield technology?

Vaposhield technology provides a durable, lightweight, and water-resistant finish, helping to protect you from light rain and damp conditions while maintaining comfort.

Is this jacket fully waterproof?

No, the jacket is water-resistant, meaning it can repel water from light showers and splashes. It is not designed to withstand prolonged or heavy rainfall, where a fully waterproof jacket would be necessary.

How do I determine my size?

Refer to the size guide provided in the product details. For this jacket, size S corresponds to a chest measurement of 39 inches.

Can I wear this jacket in cold weather?

This jacket is lightweight and offers wind resistance. For colder temperatures, it is best worn as an outer layer over insulating garments like fleeces or sweaters.

How should I clean the jacket to maintain its properties?

Machine wash on a gentle cycle with cold water and a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low heat or air dry. Reapply a waterproofing spray if needed.

What material is the jacket made of?

The jacket is made from Polyester, with a Micro Diamond and Ripstop fabric construction. The lining is Mesh.

Does the jacket have a hood?

Yes, the jacket features a hooded design with a standing collar. The hood is also packaway, meaning it can be stored when not needed.

Troubleshooting

Water repellency seems reduced.

Ensure the jacket is clean. Wash with a mild detergent and avoid fabric softener. Consider reapplying a waterproofing spray suitable for polyester outerwear according to the spray manufacturer's instructions.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Check the zipper track for any debris or fabric caught in it. Gently try to remove any obstructions. You can also lubricate the zipper with a graphite pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant.

Hood is not staying in place.

Ensure the toggle at the hem is adjusted for a snug fit. If the hood itself has drawstrings, tighten them as needed. Check that the packaway compartment is fully closed if the hood is not in use.

Jacket feels clammy inside.

This is normal when the jacket is saturated or during high exertion. For better breathability, wear lighter layers underneath and ensure the main zip is partially open for ventilation.
