FAQs
Is this jacket warm enough for winter?
It is a waterproof shell, not an insulated coat. It is perfect for winter if worn over a warm fleece or thermal layers.
Can I wash this in a machine?
Yes, machine wash on a cool setting. Always follow the specific care label instructions found inside the garment.
What does Isotex 20000 mean?
It is a technical rating indicating the fabric is highly waterproof (20,000mm hydrostatic head) and breathable.
Does the hood adjust?
The technical hood is designed to stay in place effectively to provide protection against the elements.
Is the fabric heavy?
No, it is made of lightweight polyester stretch fabric designed for comfort and ease of movement.
Troubleshooting
Water no longer beads on the surface
The DWR coating may have worn off; wash the jacket and apply a technical re-proofing spray designed for waterproof shells.
Jacket feels damp inside
Ensure the wearer is not overdressed for the temperature, as the jacket is breathable but relies on moisture management from base layers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This jacket is designed as an outer shell, making it highly compatible with fleece mid-layers or thermal base layers for colder days. To maintain the waterproof performance, avoid using harsh biological detergents or fabric softeners. Wash the jacket on a cool cycle, and periodically use a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray once the exterior fabric stops beading water effectively after heavy use.
