FAQs

What does '10,000mm waterproof' mean?

10,000mm refers to the waterproof rating, indicating how much water pressure the fabric can withstand before water penetrates. A 10,000mm rating means a column of water 10 meters high can be placed on the fabric before it leaks. This is considered highly waterproof and suitable for moderate to heavy rain and snow.

Can I wear the fleece jacket on its own?

Yes, absolutely! The inner fleece is designed to be fully detachable and can be worn independently as a warm and comfortable mid-layer or light jacket on dry, cooler days.

How do the inner fleece and outer shell connect?

The inner fleece typically connects to the outer shell via internal zippers along the main opening and often with snap or loop fastenings at the collar and cuffs. This ensures the layers stay securely integrated when worn together.

Is this jacket suitable for winter sports like skiing?

While the Karrimor 3 in 1 Jacket offers good warmth and waterproofing, it is not specifically designed as a ski jacket. It lacks features common in dedicated ski wear, such as a powder skirt or lift pass pocket. However, it can serve as a versatile outer layer for general winter use or lighter activities in cold conditions when paired with appropriate base layers.

How do I choose the correct size?

The jacket is labeled 'L' (Large). For the best fit, it's recommended to consult Karrimor's specific size guide, which usually provides measurements for chest, waist, and hips to ensure you select the most appropriate size for your body type.

Does the jacket have a hood?

Info needed: While most waterproof jackets include a hood, the product description does not explicitly state the features of the hood (e.g., adjustable, removable, packable). Please refer to product imagery or additional specifications for details on the hood.

What kind of pockets does this jacket have?

Info needed: The product description does not detail the type or number of pockets. Waterproof jackets often feature zippered hand pockets and sometimes an internal chest pocket. Please refer to product imagery or specifications for pocket details.

Troubleshooting

Jacket doesn't seem to be waterproof anymore; water soaks in.

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) coating might need re-activating or re-applying. Wash the jacket with a technical wash for waterproof clothing and then tumble dry on low heat for 20 minutes to reactivate DWR. If this doesn't work, consider applying a spray-on or wash-in DWR treatment.

The fleece layer isn't as warm as it used to be, or it's pilling.

Pilling is common with fleece over time and can reduce its insulating ability. Use a fabric shaver or lint roller to remove pills. Ensure you're washing the fleece correctly (separately from rougher fabrics) to minimize future pilling. If warmth is significantly reduced, the fibers may be matted, and replacement might be considered for optimal warmth.

Jacket feels stiff or noisy when worn.

New waterproof jackets can sometimes feel stiff due to the membrane and DWR treatment. Wearing it more often will help it soften. Ensure you're washing it correctly, as fabric softeners can cause stiffness. If the stiffness is extreme, consider checking the size to ensure it's not too small, restricting movement.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Highly versatile with 3 wearing options (shell, fleece, or both)
  • Effective waterproofing (10,000mm) keeps you dry in wet conditions
  • Breathable design prevents overheating during activity
  • Provides significant warmth when both layers are combined
  • Easy to clean and maintain (machine washable)
  • Suitable for a range of activities, from hiking to daily wear

Cons

  • Specific care instructions are needed to maintain waterproof properties
  • May be bulkier than a single-layer jacket when both components are worn
  • Info needed: Specific hood features (e.g., adjustability, removability) are not detailed
  • Info needed: Number and type of pockets are not specified
  • Sizing might require consulting Karrimor's specific size chart as 'L' is generic

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions To get the most from your Karrimor 3 in 1 Jacket, follow these guidelines: ### Setup & Layering 1. Attaching/Detaching the Fleece: The inner fleece typically attaches to the outer shell using zippers and/or snap loops at the collar and cuffs. To combine, align the fleece zippers with the inner zippers of the shell and zip them together. Secure any additional loops. To separate, simply reverse the process. 2. Adjusting for Fit: Ensure all zippers are fully closed when wearing both layers. Check for adjustable elements like cuffs or hem drawcords (if present) to customize the fit and seal out drafts. ### Compatibility This jacket is designed for adult females and is highly compatible with various outdoor activities and casual wear: * Outdoor Adventures: Hiking, trekking, camping, dog walking. * Travel: Its versatility reduces the need to pack multiple jackets. * Everyday Wear: Provides practical protection for commutes or daily errands. ### Care Instructions Proper care helps maintain the jacket's waterproof properties and extends its lifespan. 1. Machine Washable: Both the jacket and fleece are machine washable. It's recommended to wash them separately if possible, especially the fleece to prevent lint transfer. 2. Preparation: Before washing, close all zippers and fastenings to prevent snagging. Turn the outer jacket inside out. 3. Detergent: Use a technical wash designed for waterproof breathable fabrics for the outer shell to preserve its DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish and membrane. Avoid using fabric softeners or bleach, as these can clog the membrane and impair breathability and waterproofing. Regular detergent can be used for the fleece. 4. Washing Cycle: Wash on a gentle cycle with cold or lukewarm water. 5. Drying: Air dry both components away from direct heat. Tumble drying on a very low heat setting may be acceptable for the fleece, but always refer to the garment's specific care label. For the outer jacket, a low heat tumble dry can sometimes help reactivate the DWR, but air drying is generally safer. 6. Storage: Store the jacket in a clean, dry place. Avoid compressing it for long periods to maintain the loft of the fleece and the integrity of the waterproof membrane.
