The Dare 2b Torrek Breathe Easy Waterproof Jacket is designed for active women seeking reliable all-weather protection without compromising on comfort or movement. Its key benefit lies in its high waterproof and breathable ARED 20/30 fabric, keeping you dry and comfortable during outdoor activities. A potential caveat is its specialized design for active use, which may be more technical than a casual everyday jacket.

The jacket is windproof and waterproof, offering good protection against the elements. For very cold weather, it is designed to be layered. Consider adding a warm fleece or insulated mid-layer underneath for added warmth.
If water no longer beads up and rolls off the fabric surface, but instead soaks in, it's time to re-apply the DWR treatment. You can test this by sprinkling a little water on the fabric.
No, it is recommended to use a technical wash or a mild, non-biological liquid detergent. Regular detergents and fabric softeners can damage the waterproof and breathable membrane and the DWR coating.
ARED 20/30 refers to the waterproof and breathability rating of the fabric. '20' typically represents the hydrostatic head in millimeters (waterproofness), and '30' represents the breathability in grams per square meter per 24 hours.
The jacket features water-repellent zips. While they offer significant protection against rain, they are not designed for submersion. For items that absolutely must stay dry in heavy rain, consider using a waterproof pouch inside the pocket.
The hood has a wire peak to help maintain its shape and keep rain away from your face. Adjustments are typically made via drawcords at the front and rear of the hood to achieve a snug and secure fit around your head.
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. Follow the care instructions to clean the jacket and then re-apply a DWR treatment using a suitable spray or wash-in product. Ensure the jacket is clean before re-proofing.
Ensure the jacket is clean and free from dirt and body oils, which can clog the membrane pores. Wash using a technical wash and rinse thoroughly. Avoid fabric softeners, which can damage the fabric's performance.
Clean the zipper teeth gently with a soft brush and mild soap and water. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper. Apply a silicone-based zipper lubricant if necessary.
While designed for breathability, extreme exertion in very humid conditions can still lead to some moisture buildup. Open the underarm ventilation zips to increase airflow. Ensure you are wearing appropriate moisture-wicking base layers.
Setup: This jacket requires no assembly. Simply unpack and wear. Ensure all zips are closed for maximum weather protection.
Compatibility: Designed for female adults, it offers a standard fit suitable for layering over base and mid-layers. It is compatible with most outdoor activity gear.
