FAQs
What is the Isotex 10000 rating?
Isotex 10000 is a performance standard indicating that the fabric is waterproof up to 10000mm and breathable up to 10000g/m²/24hrs. This means it can withstand a significant amount of water pressure and allows a good level of moisture vapor to escape.
Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?
The jacket is designed for waterproof protection and taped seams make it suitable for moderate to heavy rain. For prolonged exposure to extreme downpours, consider layering or a jacket with a higher waterproof rating.
How do I choose the right size?
Please refer to the size chart provided in the product details. Chest measurements are given as a guide: M is 40 inches.
Can the hood be detached?
The hood is designed to be packable, meaning it can be stored within the collar, but it is not detachable.
What materials is the jacket made from?
The jacket is made from 100% recycled polyester with a mesh lining. It features a Durable Water Repellent finish.
How often should I re-proof the jacket?
Re-proofing is recommended when you notice the water repellency has significantly decreased, typically after numerous washes or extended use in wet conditions.
Can this jacket be worn in cold weather?
This jacket provides waterproof and windproof protection. For colder weather, it is designed to be layered over warm insulating clothing such as fleece or down.
Troubleshooting
Jacket is leaking water.
Ensure all seams are properly taped. If the issue persists, the DWR finish may need re-application. Check the main zip and cuffs for a secure fit.
Jacket feels damp inside, but it's not raining.
This could indicate a lack of breathability for the activity level. Ensure the main zipper is slightly open for ventilation if needed. The jacket is designed for moderate activity levels.
Zippers are stiff or difficult to move.
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth and allow to dry. You can then lubricate the zipper with a silicone-based lubricant or a graphite pencil.
Jacket has lost its water-repellent beading.
The DWR finish may need to be reactivated or reapplied. Follow the care instructions for washing and consider using a specific DWR re-proofing spray or wash-in treatment.
