FAQs

What type of activities is this jacket best suited for?

The Peter Storm Blisco II Hooded Jacket is ideal for everyday wear, light outdoor activities like walking, running errands, and casual hikes in cool to cold weather conditions.

How do I clean the jacket?

Machine wash at 30°C on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low heat or hang to dry.

Is the jacket waterproof?

The jacket features a PFC-free durable water repellent (DWR) coating, which provides protection against light moisture and rain showers. It is not fully waterproof and is not designed for heavy rain conditions.

What does 'Peter Storm heat transfer technology' do?

This technology reflects your body heat back towards you, enhancing the jacket's overall warmth and keeping you more comfortable in cold weather.

Can I wear another layer underneath?

Yes, the jacket has a regular fit designed to accommodate base layers or lighter mid-layers for added warmth.

How do I maintain the water repellency?

After washing, you can reactivate the DWR treatment with a tumble dry on low heat, or apply a specialized waterproofing spray or wash-in treatment according to the product's instructions.

What is the insulation made of?

The jacket is insulated with 100% recycled synthetic insulation, providing warmth in an environmentally conscious way.

Troubleshooting

Jacket not providing enough warmth.

Ensure all zippers are fully closed and the hem and cuffs are adjusted snugly. Consider layering with additional warm clothing underneath for colder conditions.

Water not beading off the fabric effectively.

The PFC-free DWR coating may have worn off. Follow the care instructions to wash the jacket and then apply a suitable waterproofing spray or wash-in treatment to restore its water repellency.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. If it remains stiff, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper.

Jacket feels bulky or restrictive.

Ensure you are wearing appropriate base layers. The regular fit is designed for comfort; if a more streamlined fit is desired, consider sizing down if available and appropriate for your build.

Care Instructions:

To maintain the jacket's performance and longevity, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Washing: Machine wash at 30°C (86°F) on a gentle cycle. Use a mild detergent.
  2. Rinsing: Ensure the jacket is thoroughly rinsed to remove all detergent.
  3. Bleaching/Softeners: Do not bleach or use fabric softeners, as these can damage the fabric and its water-repellent properties.
  4. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting. Alternatively, hang to dry away from direct heat sources.
  5. Ironing: Do not iron. If necessary, iron on a very low heat setting, avoiding printed areas.
  6. Water Repellency: To restore the DWR finish after washing, you can use a specialized waterproofing spray or wash-in treatment designed for outdoor apparel, following the product's instructions. A brief tumble dry on a low setting after washing can also help reactivate the existing DWR treatment.
