Jack Wolfskin Waterproof Hooded Jacket - Black - L

This jacket is primarily designed for waterproofing and breathability. It provides a windproof layer but does not offer significant insulation. For very cold weather, layering with warm clothing underneath is recommended.

Refer to the brand's sizing chart for specific measurements. This jacket is available in various sizes; ensure you check the provided dimensions to select the best fit for your body measurements.

Yes, the jacket is breathable, making it suitable for moderate to high-intensity activities where staying dry from both external rain and internal sweat is important.

It means the jacket's material and construction prevent water from penetrating through to the inside, keeping the wearer dry during rain or wet conditions. The breathability allows water vapor from inside the jacket to escape.

Re-waterproofing is generally recommended when you notice water no longer 'beading up' on the surface and instead soaking into the fabric. This can depend on usage frequency and environmental exposure, typically every few washes or after significant wear.

This jacket functions as a waterproof and breathable rain shell. It provides protection from the elements and is designed to be worn over other layers.

Ensure the jacket is clean. Machine wash with a special technical wash detergent and re-proof using a suitable spray or wash-in treatment. Avoid fabric softeners and excessive heat during drying.

Clean the zipper teeth gently with a toothbrush and mild soap. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or wax (like a graphite pencil tip) to the zipper teeth.

Ensure all vents are open if present. Check if the inner lining is wet from perspiration; if so, the breathability may be overwhelmed by high exertion. Clean the jacket as per care instructions to ensure membranes are clear.
