FAQs

What does the '10,000 mm waterproof rating' mean?

A 10,000 mm rating indicates that the fabric can withstand the pressure of a 10-meter column of water before leaking. This makes the jacket suitable for moderate to heavy rain.

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

The jacket is designed for waterproofing and breathability. While the mesh lining offers some insulation, it is best suited for moderate to cool temperatures. For very cold weather, consider layering with insulating mid-layers such as fleece or down.

How do I clean the jacket?

Machine wash on a gentle cycle with cold water and a mild detergent. Do not use bleach or fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low heat or air dry. Always refer to the care label for specific instructions.

Can I wear this jacket if it's not raining?

Yes, the breathable mesh lining allows for airflow, making it comfortable to wear even when it's not raining, especially in cooler or windy conditions where you might want a light outer layer.

What are the main benefits of the WeatherTite technology?

WeatherTite technology provides reliable waterproofing and wind resistance, while the breathable mesh lining helps to manage moisture from the inside, keeping you dry from both the elements and perspiration.

Are the pockets waterproof?

The pockets are designed with zippers to help keep contents dry from rain. However, they are not fully submersible and should not be relied upon for prolonged exposure to heavy rain or submersion.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer waterproof

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) treatment may have worn off. Consider washing the jacket with a specialized waterproofing cleaner and then applying a DWR re-treatment spray or wash. Ensure the garment is clean before applying.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and mild soap. Apply a graphite pencil or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth to help it slide smoothly.

Mesh lining feels uncomfortable or sticky

Ensure the jacket is clean. Residue from detergents or body oils can affect the feel. Wash according to care instructions, avoiding fabric softeners.
