FAQs
What is the primary function of this jacket?
The Tee Jays 9602 Club Jacket is designed to provide protection against light rain and wind, offering a balance of water-repellency, windproofing, and breathability for outdoor comfort.
Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?
The jacket is described as 'showerproof', meaning it is best suited for light to moderate rain. For prolonged exposure to heavy downpours, a fully waterproof jacket would be more appropriate.
Can I wear this jacket in cold weather?
The jacket provides wind resistance and some protection from the elements, making it a good outer layer. For very cold conditions, additional thermal layers underneath would be recommended.
How do I clean the jacket to maintain its properties?
Machine wash at a moderate temperature (30-40°C) with mild detergent. Avoid high heat when drying. Reapply water-repellent treatment periodically to ensure optimal performance.
What does 'breathable' mean in the context of this jacket?
Breathable means the fabric allows moisture vapor (sweat) to escape from the inside to the outside, helping to keep you dry and comfortable during physical activity by preventing a build-up of heat and moisture.
Can I add custom embroidery or logos to this jacket?
Yes, the jacket features an inner zipper specifically designed to provide easy access for decoration, making it suitable for custom branding.
What are the main materials used in its construction?
The outer fabric is made from 90% recycled polyester and 10% elastane. The lining is 100% recycled nylon. The fabric weight is 210 g/m².
Troubleshooting
Jacket not repelling water effectively
The water-repellent finish may have diminished. Clean the jacket according to care instructions and consider applying a suitable re-waterproofing treatment.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it persists, apply a small amount of lubricant like graphite pencil lead or beeswax to the zipper teeth.
Jacket feels clammy or less breathable
Ensure the inner lining is clean and free from debris. Check that the jacket is not overly layered underneath, which can impede breathability. Wash the jacket as per care instructions.
Ribbed cuffs or hem losing elasticity
Avoid high heat drying, as this can degrade elastic fibers. Gently stretch the cuffs if they seem misshapen. Elasticity loss is a natural aging process for ribbed materials.
