FAQs

Is this jacket machine washable?

Yes, it is recommended to wash on a cool, gentle cycle using mild detergent.

Can I wear this in heavy rain?

This jacket is water-resistant, not waterproof. It is suitable for light rain or mist, but will eventually soak through in heavy downpours.

Does the hood provide extra protection?

This model focuses on a neck protector design rather than an integrated hood.

What material is the jacket made from?

The jacket is constructed from high-quality, durable polyester.

Are the cuffs adjustable?

Yes, the jacket features adjustable cuffs to help customize the fit and prevent cold air from entering.

Is this jacket windproof?

Yes, it is designed specifically to be windproof, making it excellent for blocking cold wind chill.

Troubleshooting

Water begins to soak into the fabric

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) coating may need to be refreshed; follow manufacturer recommendations for a DWR re-application spray.

Zipper feels stiff or difficult to operate

Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper track, then clean the track with a dry brush to remove debris.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Highly windproof and water-resistant fabric
  • Sophisticated, clean aesthetic suitable for various settings
  • Adjustable components for a personalized fit
  • Durable polyester construction
  • Includes essential wind-blocking features like an inner storm flap

  • Not intended for heavy, sustained rainfall
  • Limited to adult male sizing
  • Polyester material may not offer as much stretch as spandex-blend softshells

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of the jacket, always follow the care label instructions sewn into the interior. As this is a technical polyester garment, it is best to machine wash on a cool, gentle cycle with mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can compromise the water-resistant coating on the fabric. Hang the jacket to air dry away from direct heat sources to prevent the material from warping or losing its shape. The jacket is designed with a standard fit, making it compatible with layering underneath; you may choose your standard size for a fitted look or size up if you intend to wear a thick sweater or fleece beneath it.
