Product Information

Full details

This jacket is designed for adult females seeking high-performance protection during outdoor activities, especially skiing. Its key benefit is the unmatched waterproof and breathable ARED 35/35K recycled fabric combined with AEP KINEMATICS technology for unrestricted movement. A potential caveat is that while highly technical, its specific design might be more suited for athletic pursuits than casual wear.

FAQs

What does ARED 35/35K mean?

ARED 35/35K refers to the jacket's waterproof rating (35,000mm) and breathability rating (35,000g/m²/24hr). Higher numbers indicate better performance in keeping water out and allowing moisture vapor to escape.

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

Yes, the jacket provides high insulating performance to eliminate wind chill and is designed for use in cold conditions. For extreme cold, layering with appropriate base and mid-layers is recommended.

Can I wear a helmet under the hood?

The technical wired adjustable hood is designed to accommodate ski helmets, offering enhanced protection and visibility on the slopes.

How do I wash the jacket to maintain its waterproof properties?

Machine wash on a gentle cycle at 30°C using a technical waterproof fabric detergent. Avoid bleach, fabric softener, and powder detergents. Rinse thoroughly and tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang dry.

What does 'PFAS compliant' mean?

It means the jacket is manufactured without the use of certain per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), which are chemicals often used in DWR treatments but are subject to environmental and health concerns. This indicates a more environmentally responsible manufacturing process.

Can the DWR finish be reapplied?

Yes, the Durable Water-Repellent (DWR) finish can be reactivated by tumble drying on a low heat setting after washing, or reapplied using specialized DWR treatment sprays or washes available for outdoor gear.

What is AEP KINEMATICS technology?

AEP KINEMATICS is an ergonomic design technology that uses stretch fabrics and articulation at key movement points to provide unrestricted movement and enhance comfort during active use.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer repelling water effectively.

The Durable Water-Repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. Clean the jacket according to care instructions and then reapply a DWR treatment, following the product's specific guidelines. A tumble dry on low heat after washing can also help reactivate the existing DWR.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Ensure the zipper area is free from debris like dirt or snow. Gently clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth. You can also apply a small amount of wax (like beeswax) or a silicone lubricant designed for zippers to help it glide smoothly.

Reduced breathability or feeling clammy inside.

Check that the inner lining and any vents are not blocked. Ensure you are wearing appropriate base layers that wick moisture away. The jacket may also need to be cleaned to remove accumulated body oils and dirt that can clog the membrane.

Seam tape is peeling or damaged.

This indicates a potential compromise in the jacket's waterproofness. Contact the manufacturer or a specialist outdoor gear repair service for advice on repair, as delaminating seam tape is difficult to fix effectively at home.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional waterproof and breathable performance.
  • Designed for maximum freedom of movement and comfort.
  • Robust insulation against cold and wind.
  • Durable construction for longevity.
  • Environmentally conscious material compliance.

Cons

  • May be overly technical for casual everyday use.
  • Specific fit and features tailored for active sports.
  • Color might not suit all preferences.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This jacket requires no assembly. It is ready to wear straight out of the packaging.

Compatibility:

  • Hood: The technical wired hood is designed to accommodate most ski helmets or be adjusted for a snug fit without one.
  • Layering: The jacket's fit allows for layering with thermal base layers and mid-layers for added warmth, depending on the conditions.

Care Instructions:

  • Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle at 30°C (86°F) with a technical waterproof fabric detergent. Do NOT use powder detergents, bleach, or fabric softeners.
  • Rinsing: Rinse thoroughly to remove all detergent residue.
  • Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang dry away from direct heat sources. Once dry, a short tumble on a low heat setting can help reactivate the DWR finish.
  • Re-Waterproofing: For optimal performance, periodically reapply a DWR (Durable Water-Repellent) treatment, following the product instructions. This can often be done during the tumble dry cycle using a specific DWR treatment product.
