FAQs
Is the jacket fully waterproof?
No, the jacket is water-repellent. It is designed to shed light rain and wind, but it is not intended for heavy, prolonged downpours.
Can I wear this in the winter?
It serves as a great outer shell, but you will need to wear thermal base layers underneath if using it in freezing temperatures.
How do I pack the jacket?
Simply invert the jacket into the designated front pocket and zip it closed to create a compact, portable pouch.
Does it have pockets for keys or a phone?
The jacket features a front pocket, though storage is kept minimal to maintain the lightweight design.
What is the best way to clean it?
Wash in cold water on a gentle cycle, do not use fabric softener, and allow it to air dry.
Troubleshooting
Water absorption on the outer layer
The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating may need to be reactivated; tumble dry the garment on low heat for a short cycle or use a technical fabric re-proofer.
Zipper sticking or catching
Ensure no fabric is trapped in the track and clear any debris from the zipper teeth; if it persists, apply a tiny amount of dry lubricant like graphite or specialized zipper wax.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Highly packable for easy transit

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the jacket maintains its water-repellent properties, machine wash on a cold, gentle cycle using a mild detergent designed for technical sportswear. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can strip the protective finish from the knit fabric. Air drying is highly recommended to preserve the material's integrity and shape. When setting up your fit, utilize the adjustable toggles on the hood and hem; snugging these down before heading out into the wind will significantly improve the jacket's weather-sealing capabilities. The jacket is designed to be size-consistent, offering a standard athletic fit that accommodates base layers comfortably.
