FAQs

Is this jacket waterproof?

It is water-resistant, meaning it features a durable water-repellent (DWR) finish to handle light moisture, but it is not a fully waterproof seam-sealed rain jacket.

Can I put this in the dryer?

Yes, you can tumble dry on a low setting, which can also help reactivate the DWR finish.

Is the jacket insulated?

The Cyclone is primarily a wind-blocking shell and does not contain significant insulating fill, making it perfect for layering over other pieces.

Does it have side pockets?

The standard design focuses on a streamlined shell; please check your specific model tag to verify pocket placement.

How should I clean mud off the fabric?

Allow the mud to dry completely and brush it off; for deeper stains, use a mild detergent and a soft cloth to spot clean.

Is the size range specific to age?

Yes, the sizes are categorized by both generic apparel sizing and age groups, though we recommend checking height/weight measurements if possible.

Troubleshooting

Water soaking through the fabric

The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating may have worn off; consider using a technical garment re-waterproofing spray.

Zipper feels stiff or hard to operate

Ensure no fabric is caught in the teeth and consider applying a small amount of graphite or specialized zipper lubricant.

Pros and Cons

  • Lightweight and highly packable for easy storage
  • Effective at cutting through wind chill

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This jacket is designed for simple, everyday wear. No complex setup is required; simply pull it on and secure the front zipper. To maintain the jacket's performance, ensure you follow the care label instructions. It is machine washable, which is beneficial for active outdoor use. We recommend washing in cold water with similar colors and avoiding harsh chemical bleaches to protect the water-repellent coating. For the best longevity, tumble dry on a low setting or hang to air dry, which helps preserve the integrity of the fabric's protective finish.
