FAQs
What does 'showerproof' mean for this jacket?
Showerproof means the jacket is designed to withstand light rain or showers for a limited time. It is water-repellent but not fully waterproof, so it may not be suitable for prolonged exposure to heavy rain.
Can this jacket be worn in cold weather?
The jacket provides wind protection and is showerproof, making it suitable for cooler, damp conditions. For very cold weather, it is best used as an outer or mid-layer over warmer clothing.
How do I clean the jacket to maintain its performance?
Machine wash cold with like colors using a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low or hang dry. Reapply a DWR treatment periodically to maintain water repellency.
Is the jacket suitable for branding or customization?
Yes, the jacket features an inside zipper specifically designed for easy decoration access, making it suitable for adding logos or team embroidery.
What is the advantage of the recycled nylon material?
Using recycled nylon reduces environmental impact by utilizing pre-existing materials. It offers similar durability and performance characteristics to virgin nylon.
What sizes are available?
The Tee Jays 9602 Club Jacket is available in a wide range of adult sizes, from XS up to XXXXL.
Can I machine dry the jacket?
Yes, you can tumble dry the jacket on a low heat setting. However, hanging it to air dry is also a good option and can help preserve the fabric and water-repellent treatment over time.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper. Gently pull the fabric away. If stiffness persists, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth.
Water is penetrating the fabric during rain.
The jacket is showerproof, not fully waterproof. For heavier rain, consider a more robust waterproof garment. The water-repellent treatment may also need reapplication; follow care instructions for re-waterproofing.
Jacket feels clammy inside.
This can occur if the jacket is overwhelmed by moisture output during high-intensity activity. Ensure the hem and cuffs are snug to prevent drafts. If washing, ensure no residue from detergents is left, which can affect breathability.
Drawcord hem adjustment is loose.
Check the cord lock mechanism for damage. Ensure the drawcord itself is not frayed or broken. If the cord lock is not holding, it may need replacement.
