FAQs
What is the primary advantage of GORE-TEX® fabric in this jacket?
GORE-TEX® provides a highly effective barrier against wind and water while allowing body moisture vapor to escape, keeping you dry and comfortable from the inside out.
How does the RECCO® reflector work?
The RECCO® reflector is a passive device that bounces radar signals. Search and rescue teams equipped with RECCO® detectors can use these signals to locate a wearer in an emergency, such as an avalanche.
Can I wear this jacket in mild weather?
While it offers protection in all conditions, its advanced waterproofing and breathability features are most beneficial in challenging or wet weather. For very mild, dry conditions, it might be warmer than necessary.
How often should I re-proof the jacket?
Re-proofing is recommended when you notice water is no longer beading up on the fabric surface, typically after several washes or extensive use in wet conditions.
What specific activities is this jacket designed for?
It is optimized for trekking and hiking, offering robust protection and performance in mountainous or unpredictable outdoor environments.
What material is the main body of the jacket made from?
The main body is crafted from a three-layer laminate GORE-TEX® fabric, with the base fabric being 100% Polyester.
Troubleshooting
Water is seeping through the seams.
Ensure all seams are properly heat-sealed. If the issue persists, the DWR treatment may need to be reapplied. Contact customer support if damage is suspected.
Jacket feels clammy or less breathable.
Check that the inner garment is not trapping moisture. Ensure the outer shell is clean, as dirt and oils can impede breathability. Wash according to care instructions.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to close.
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and water. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or wax stick to the teeth.
