Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the ARED 35/35 fabric?

The ARED 35/35 fabric provides exceptional waterproofing (35,000mm water column) and high breathability (35,000 gsm), keeping you dry from external moisture and internal perspiration.

How does AEP KINEMATICS technology improve performance?

AEP KINEMATICS enhances mobility and comfort through ergonomic design and stretch fabric, with articulation at critical motion points for better agility and a less restrictive feel during activity.

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

The jacket provides excellent windproof protection and waterproofing, but it is designed as an outer shell. For very cold weather, you will need to layer appropriate insulating garments underneath.

Can I wear this jacket in light rain?

Yes, the jacket is designed for all weather conditions, including light rain. Its waterproof properties and DWR finish will keep you dry.

How should I clean the jacket to maintain its performance?

Machine wash at 30°C with liquid detergent, avoiding fabric softeners and bleach. Close all zips before washing. Consider re-proofing after washing to restore water repellency.

What does 'PFAS Compliant' mean?

PFAS Compliant means the product meets certain environmental standards regarding the use of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, which are often found in traditional DWR treatments.

Are the zippers fully waterproof?

The zippers are water-repellent, and combined with the fully taped seams and DWR fabric finish, they contribute to the jacket's overall waterproof performance.

Troubleshooting

Water not beading off the fabric effectively

The Durable Water-Repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. Follow the care instructions to wash the jacket and then apply a re-proofing agent suitable for waterproof-breathable fabrics.

Zippers feel stiff or difficult to move

Ensure the zipper teeth are clean and free from dirt or debris. Gently lubricate the zipper with a silicone-based lubricant or wax.

Reduced breathability, feeling clammy inside

Check for blockages in vents (if present) and ensure the jacket is not overloaded with internal layers for the current conditions. Wash the jacket according to care instructions, as accumulated body oils can impede breathability.

Seams appear to be leaking

Verify that all seams are indeed fully taped and that the tape is intact. If the tape is damaged, professional repair might be necessary. Ensure the jacket has been washed and re-proofed as per instructions.
