Product Information
Full details
The Ridgeline Monsoon Classic Jacket is designed for adult men who require reliable weather protection during intense outdoor work or recreational activities in wet, windy conditions. It features a high-performance 3-layer construction that balances a 10,000mm waterproof hydrostatic head with breathable fabric to keep you dry and comfortable. While it offers superior shielding from the elements, the heavy-duty nature of the material means it is built for durability rather than lightweight portability.

FAQs
Is the hood detachable?
The hood is designed to be a roll-away style, allowing you to stow it within the collar when it is not needed.
What does a 10,000mm hydrostatic head rating mean?
It means the fabric can withstand a 10,000mm column of water pressing against it before any liquid penetrates the material, indicating high waterproof performance.
Can I machine wash this jacket?
Yes, but use a technical apparel wash and a gentle cycle. Avoid fabric softeners as they can damage the waterproof coating.
Is this jacket suitable for winter?
The jacket acts as a windproof and waterproof shell. It is very effective when paired with insulating mid-layers like fleeces or sweaters.
What is the material of the jacket?
The jacket is constructed from high-quality, durable polyester with a 3-layer waterproof system.
Troubleshooting
Water stops beading on the surface
The DWR finish has likely worn off. Wash the garment with a technical cleaner and re-apply a DWR spray treatment according to the product instructions.
Feeling damp inside during high exertion
Even with 10,000g/m² breathability, if you are working very hard, some moisture may build up. Adjust your layering system to ensure you aren't wearing too many non-breathable mid-layers.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Excellent waterproof and windproof capabilities
- Soft-handle outer fabric that is notably quiet for field work
- High breathability rating keeps you comfortable during exertion
- Highly adjustable features for a personalized fit
Cons
- Not intended for ultralight packing due to its robust 3-layer build
- Specific to men's sizing, which may require careful measurement for fit
- Requires proper maintenance to keep the DWR finish effective
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your jacket, always ensure the drawcord waist and cuffs are tightened in extreme wind to maximize protection. When storing, keep the jacket on a hanger to maintain the shape of the hood and peak. For cleaning, use a technical gear cleaner rather than standard detergents to protect the DWR finish. Periodically check the exterior for dirt buildup, as this can degrade the water-repellency over time. Re-applying a DWR spray treatment after deep cleaning is recommended to maintain the jacket's 'beading' effect in rain.
