FAQs
What does 'T-KIT compatible' mean?
T-KIT compatibility means the parka is designed to zip or fasten onto specific compatible inner layers or insulating jackets from Aigle, allowing you to build a modular system for different weather conditions.
How do I clean the Gore-Tex material?
You can machine wash the parka on a gentle cycle at 30°C with a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softener and bleach. Rinse thoroughly and tumble dry on low heat or air dry. Re-waterproofing may be needed periodically.
Can I wear this in very cold weather?
While the GORE-TEX offers wind protection, it is a shell. For very cold weather, you will need to layer a warm insulating jacket or fleece underneath, utilizing its T-KIT compatibility if applicable.
What is the length of the parka?
The parka is described as mid-length, providing coverage to approximately the upper thigh area.
Is the hood detachable?
Yes, the hood is removable and fitted with a drawcord for adjustable fit.
How many pockets does the parka have?
The parka features two hand pockets under flaps with concealed press studs, one zip-up breast pocket, and one inside breast pocket with a zip-up fastening.
What material is the parka made of?
The parka is made of 100% polyester with a GORE-TEX membrane.
Troubleshooting
Water is not beading on the fabric surface
The durable water repellent (DWR) coating may have worn off. Reapply a DWR treatment following the product's instructions.
Hood drawcord is difficult to adjust
Ensure the drawcord channel is clean and free of debris. Gently work the cord through the channel.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Clean the zipper teeth gently with a soft brush and a damp cloth. Apply a small amount of wax or silicone lubricant to the teeth.
Parka feels less breathable than expected
Ensure the garment is clean, as dirt and oils can clog the pores of the GORE-TEX membrane. Follow the care instructions for washing and re-waterproofing.
