FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

This is a lightweight soft shell jacket. While it offers wind and water resistance, it is best suited for moderate temperatures or as a layering piece in colder conditions. For extreme cold, additional insulated layers would be necessary.

How do I clean the jacket to maintain its water-repellent properties?

Machine wash at 40°C with a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can impede water repellency. After washing, you can tumble dry on a low heat to help reactivate the water-repellent finish. For enhanced protection, consider using a spray-on or wash-in waterproofing treatment designed for outdoor gear.

What does 'Softshell' mean in the context of this jacket?

Softshell refers to a type of fabric that is designed to be breathable, water-repellent, and wind-resistant, offering a balance of protection and comfort. It is typically softer and more flexible than traditional hardshell waterproof jackets.

Can I wear this jacket for intense physical activity?

Yes, the jacket's stretch fabric, breathability, and quick-dry properties make it suitable for many physical activities like hiking, running, or cycling. The full zip allows for ventilation during high exertion.

What are the washing instructions for this jacket?

It is recommended to machine wash the jacket at 40°C using a mild detergent. Do not bleach. Tumble dry on low heat or line dry. Do not iron. Always refer to the care label on the garment for the most accurate instructions.

How many pockets does the jacket have?

The jacket features two lower pockets for convenient storage of small items.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels damp after wearing in rain.

The water-repellent finish may have diminished. Consider re-applying a suitable fabric protector. Ensure zippers and seams are fully closed.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Gently try to move the zipper. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth. Avoid excessive force.

Reduced stretch or flexibility.

Ensure the garment is not overly tight. Stretch fabric can sometimes feel less flexible if it's the wrong size. Check care instructions to ensure no treatments have affected the fabric's elasticity.

Pockets seem too small.

The pockets are designed for lightweight items such as keys, a phone, or a wallet. For larger items, consider using a backpack.
