The ARED 35/35 fabric provides exceptional waterproofing (35,000mm) to keep you dry in heavy rain and high breathability (35,000 gsm) to allow moisture vapor to escape, ensuring comfort during activity.
AEP KINEMATICS is an ergonomic design technology that, combined with articulated sleeves and stretch fabric, enhances freedom of movement and agility, making it easier to navigate challenging terrain.
The frequency depends on usage and care. It's recommended to re-apply when you notice water is no longer beading effectively on the surface of the jacket, typically after several washes or significant wear.
No, fabric softener should never be used as it can clog the membrane pores, reduce breathability, and damage the DWR finish.
Use a small amount of liquid technical wash or a mild liquid detergent. Avoid powder detergents, bleach, and fabric softeners, as they can impair the fabric's performance.
The jacket provides excellent wind and water protection, which are crucial in cold weather. However, for extreme cold, layering with appropriate insulating mid and base layers is essential, as the jacket itself is primarily a shell.
Fully taped seams mean that the stitching lines on the inside of the jacket are covered with a waterproof tape. This prevents water from penetrating through the needle holes, ensuring complete waterproofness.
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish has likely worn off. Re-apply a DWR treatment according to the product instructions and tumble dry on a low heat to activate it.
Ensure all seams are properly taped and the DWR finish is intact. If seams are damaged, professional repair may be needed. Regular washing without fabric softener can help maintain seam integrity.
Clean the zipper teeth gently with a soft brush and mild soap. Ensure no debris is caught in the teeth. Apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant or wax to the zipper track.
While the jacket is highly breathable, intense activity can still lead to moisture buildup. Ensure you are wearing appropriate base layers and adjust ventilation if possible. Check that the internal fabric is clean, as dirt can impede breathability.
Setup: This jacket requires no specific setup beyond adjusting the hood, cuffs, and hem for a personalized fit. Ensure all zippers are fully closed before use.
Compatibility: Designed for outdoor activities like hiking, mountaineering, and trekking. It is suitable for use with other base layers and mid-layers depending on the weather conditions.
