FAQs

How many different ways can this jacket be worn?

This jacket offers seven distinct wearing configurations, including options with and without the inner jacket, and with detachable sleeves.

What is the waterproof rating of the fabric?

The jacket is certified to the highest waterproof and breathable standards. The outer shell fabric is 300D Oxford Polyester with a double PU coating and taped seams, and features a PFAS-free Texpel™ Splash Eco fabric finish for extreme water resistance.

Can I use this jacket in very cold temperatures?

Yes, the jacket is EN342 certified for protection against cold, effective down to -40°C, thanks to its insulated inner jacket and robust outer shell.

How should I clean the jacket to maintain its performance?

Machine wash at 40°C with a mild liquid detergent, rinse thoroughly, and dry on a low heat setting. Avoid bleach, fabric softeners, and dry cleaning. Iron at a medium heat setting.

What is the UPF rating for UV protection?

The jacket has a 40+ UPF rating, which blocks 98% of UV rays.

Is the jacket suitable for corporate branding?

Yes, the jacket offers print access on the concealed detachable hood and inner garment, making it suitable for corporate branding.

What kind of pockets does the jacket have?

The jacket features 13 pockets in total, including handwarmer pockets, a concealed mobile phone pocket, an ID card holder, a radio loop, and ample storage pockets.

Troubleshooting

Water is not beading on the fabric surface.

The water-repellent finish may have worn off. Reapply a suitable DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish according to the product's instructions to restore water resistance.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Ensure the zipper track is clean and free of debris. Gently lubricate the zipper teeth with a silicone-based lubricant or a graphite pencil. Avoid forcing the zipper.

Jacket feels less breathable.

The jacket's membrane may be blocked by dirt or residue. Ensure the jacket is cleaned according to care instructions using mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners which can clog the pores.

Reflective tape appears damaged or degraded.

Reflective tape can degrade over time with excessive washing or exposure to harsh chemicals. While some degradation is normal, if significantly damaged, visibility may be compromised. Consider replacement if critical for safety.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional versatility with 7 distinct wearing options.
  • High level of protection against water, wind, and cold.
  • Excellent visibility due to hi-vis colors and reflective elements.
  • Durable construction suitable for demanding work environments.
  • Multiple storage options for tools and personal items.
  • Comfortable design with fleece collar and knitted cuffs.

Cons

  • May be overly warm or bulky for milder weather conditions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The jacket is designed for immediate use. The primary setup involves choosing the desired configuration from its seven options by zipping or detaching components like the inner jacket or sleeves. Ensure all zips and fastenings are secure before use.

Compatibility: This jacket is suitable for adult males. While it features a standard fit, selecting the correct size is crucial for comfort and to allow for layering underneath. It is designed to be worn over work clothing.

Care Instructions: To maintain the jacket's performance and longevity:

  • Washing: Machine wash at 40°C (104°F) with mild liquid detergent. Do not bleach, tumble dry on low heat, or dry clean. Wash inside out.
  • Rinsing: Rinse thoroughly. Do not use fabric softeners.
  • Ironing: Iron at a medium heat setting (150°C / 300°F). Do not iron prints or trims.
  • Maintenance: Regularly check seams and closures for wear. Reapply a water-repellent finish if water no longer beads on the fabric surface (follow product instructions for the finish).
  • Storage: Store in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight.
