FAQs

What does '10k Waterproof' mean?

'10k Waterproof' refers to the hydrostatic head rating, indicating the jacket can withstand 10,000 millimeters of water pressure before leaking. This provides good protection against moderate rain.

How breathable is this jacket?

The jacket has a breathability rating of 10,000g/m²/24hr, which means it can allow approximately 10,000 grams of water vapor to pass through per square meter in a 24-hour period. This offers decent breathability for everyday activities.

Can I wear this in very cold weather?

This jacket is a waterproof shell. For very cold weather, you will need to layer insulating clothing underneath it, such as a fleece or a down jacket, to provide warmth.

How do I clean the jacket?

Machine wash on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach. Do not iron. Always check the care label for specific instructions.

What is the purpose of the mesh lining?

The mesh lining enhances breathability and comfort by allowing air circulation between the waterproof outer shell and your skin, helping to wick away moisture.

Are the cuffs adjustable?

Yes, the cuffs feature hook-and-loop fastenings, allowing you to adjust them for a secure and customized fit around your wrists.

Is this jacket suitable for heavy hiking in the rain?

While it offers good waterproofing for general use, for extended periods in heavy rain or challenging conditions, a jacket with a higher waterproof rating and more robust features might be more suitable.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer fully waterproof.

The DWR finish may have worn off. Clean the jacket thoroughly and apply a new DWR treatment according to the product's instructions.

Hood is difficult to fold away.

Ensure the hood is completely dry and then carefully refold it into its designated compartment. Check for any obstructions.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to use.

Gently clean the zipper with a damp cloth to remove any dirt or debris. Lubricate the zipper teeth with a specialized zipper lubricant or a small amount of graphite from a pencil.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Effective 10k waterproofing for everyday rain protection.
  • Good breathability to prevent overheating during activity.
  • Practical foldaway hood for quick access to weather cover.
  • Adjustable cuffs for a personalized and secure fit.
  • Durable construction suitable for urban and light outdoor use.
  • Lightweight and comfortable for extended wear.

Cons

  • May not be sufficient for extreme weather conditions or prolonged heavy downpours.
  • Limited pocket configurations might be a consideration for some users.
  • Primarily a shell; insulation would need to be layered underneath for cold weather.
  • Styling may be more functional than fashion-forward for some preferences.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

This jacket requires no setup. It is ready to wear straight out of the packaging.

Compatibility:

This jacket is designed for adult males and is available in various sizes (e.g., S, M) and colors (Grey, Black, Green, Blue). It is suitable for layering over casual wear or performance base layers.

Care Instructions:

  • Always follow the specific care label instructions inside the garment.
  • Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Do not use fabric softeners or bleach, as these can damage the waterproof coating.
  • Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang to dry away from direct heat sources. Avoid ironing.
  • Re-proofing: Periodically, you may need to re-apply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish to maintain optimal waterproofing. Use a spray-on or wash-in re-proofer suitable for outdoor apparel.
