Product Information

Full details

The Gant Active Cloud Jacket is designed for the modern adult male who needs a versatile, reliable outer layer for transitional weather. Its primary benefit is the combination of a water-repellent shell with mid-weight insulation, providing comfort without the bulk of a heavy winter parka. One important caveat is that while it handles light rain effectively thanks to the DWR treatment, it is not a fully waterproof garment designed for heavy, prolonged storms.

FAQs

Is this jacket waterproof?

It is water-repellent thanks to a DWR treatment, which is perfect for light rain, but it is not waterproof and will absorb water during heavy or prolonged rain.

Can I remove the hood?

Yes, the hood is fully detachable for added versatility.

How should I wash this jacket?

Use a gentle machine cycle with mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners to protect the water-repellent coating.

Does it have internal pockets?

Yes, the jacket features three interior pockets for secure storage.

Is this jacket suitable for extreme winter?

It is designed as a mid-weight jacket for transitional weather. It may not provide enough warmth for sub-zero, arctic conditions.

What does the regular fit mean?

The regular fit offers a classic, comfortable silhouette that is neither overly loose nor overly tight, allowing room for a sweater underneath.

Troubleshooting

Water is soaking into the fabric rather than beading.

The DWR finish may have worn off. Wash the jacket and re-apply a DWR spray treatment designed for outdoor synthetic apparel.

The jacket feels too drafty at the waist.

Ensure the drawstring toggle at the hem is fully tightened and secured.

The zipper is snagging.

Check for loose threads or fabric caught in the teeth. Gently pull back the fabric and apply a small amount of graphite or specialized zipper lubricant if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Gant Active Cloud Jacket, follow these guidelines:

  1. Detaching the Hood: Locate the attachment points around the collar. Undo the snap buttons or zipper track to remove the hood for a cleaner silhouette.
  2. Adjustment: Pull the drawstring toggle at the hem to cinch the jacket closer to your waist to block out wind.
  3. Cleaning: Always check the internal wash label. Generally, this synthetic jacket should be machine-washed on a gentle cycle. Use a mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners, as these can compromise the DWR water-repellent coating.
  4. Drying: Air dry whenever possible. If machine drying, use the lowest heat setting to avoid damaging the synthetic fibers and insulation.
