Product Information
Full details
The Jack Wolfskin Jasper Waterproof Jacket is a reliable hardshell designed for adult males who need dependable protection against wind and rain during outdoor activities. Featuring the brand's signature TEXAPORE membrane, it offers a robust balance of waterproof performance and breathability; however, users should note that as a dedicated shell, it requires effective layering underneath to manage warmth in extremely cold conditions.

FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for winter conditions?
It is a hardshell. It is wind and waterproof but not insulated, so it must be layered with thermal clothing for winter.
Can I use this jacket for intense hiking?
Yes, its breathability rating makes it suitable for active outdoor pursuits, provided the exertion level is moderate.
How do I know if it is waterproof?
The jacket features a 10,000mm hydrostatic head, which is sufficient for most heavy rain and storm conditions.
What material is it made from?
The jacket is constructed from durable polyester with the integrated TEXAPORE membrane.
Can I adjust the hood?
The hood is fixed to the jacket to provide a secure and reliable fit during wet weather.
Troubleshooting
Water starts soaking through the outer fabric
The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating may have worn off. Clean the jacket and reapply a technical waterproofing spray.
Feeling damp inside the jacket
Ensure your base layers are moisture-wicking; if you are sweating excessively, the breathability limit may be reached—try opening up the jacket or reducing your pace.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your jacket, adhere to the following maintenance steps:
- Layering: Use this jacket over a fleece or synthetic mid-layer to achieve optimal thermal regulation in cooler temperatures.
- Cleaning: Wash in cold water using a technical gear cleaner to maintain the integrity of the membrane. Avoid using standard fabric softeners.
- Drying: Air dry the jacket in a shaded area. If the water-repellent coating (DWR) wears off, reapply a standard spray-on treatment to maintain the 'beading' effect on the exterior.
- Storage: Hang the jacket on a sturdy hanger rather than folding it for long periods to preserve the shape of the hood and sleeves.
