FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?

No, this jacket is water-repellent, meaning it can handle light rain or splashes. For heavy downpours, a fully waterproof jacket would be more appropriate.

What is the main benefit of the 'Quick Dry' technology?

The Quick Dry technology helps moisture evaporate quickly from the fabric, keeping you comfortable and preventing you from feeling clammy during and after physical activity.

Can I wear this jacket in very cold weather?

The jacket provides wind resistance and some insulation, but for very cold temperatures, it is recommended to wear it as a layer over warmer clothing.

How should I care for the water-repellent finish?

Avoid fabric softeners and high heat drying, as these can degrade the finish. Reapplying a water-repellent treatment periodically, especially after washing, will help maintain its effectiveness.

What does 'Recycled' material mean in this jacket?

The 'Recycled' material indicates that the polyester fabric used in the jacket has been made from post-consumer plastic waste, contributing to environmental sustainability.

How many pockets does the jacket have and are they secure?

The jacket features 2 zip pockets on the sides and 1 zip pocket on the chest, all offering secure storage for your belongings.

Troubleshooting

Water repellency seems reduced.

The water-repellent treatment may have worn off. Re-apply a suitable water-repellent spray or wash-in treatment according to the product's instructions.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Gently try to move the zipper. If it remains stiff, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth.

Jacket feels less breathable than expected.

Ensure the jacket's internal pockets and main compartments are not overloaded, as this can restrict airflow. Check that the fabric is clean, as dirt can affect breathability.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This jacket requires no specific setup, as it is ready to wear out of the package. It is compatible with most casual and outdoor wear. To maintain its performance and longevity:

  • Washing: Machine wash at 30°C (86°F) on a gentle cycle. Use a mild detergent.
  • Bleaching: Do not bleach.
  • Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang to dry.
  • Ironing: Do not iron. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can affect the water-repellent properties.
  • Care for Water Repellency: For best results, re-apply a water-repellent finish after several washes following the product instructions for the chosen treatment.
