FAQs

Is the parka hood removable?

What is the insulation made of?

The parka uses 180g/m² of recycled polyester padding.

Is this coat suitable for heavy rain?

Yes, it is fully waterproof with taped seams, making it highly effective against rain and snow.

Can I put the parka in the dryer?

It is generally recommended to air dry the parka to prevent heat damage to the technical materials and padding.

Is the water-repellent finish environmentally friendly?

Yes, the parka uses a PFC-free water-repellent finish, making it a more conscious choice.

Troubleshooting

Water no longer beads on the surface of the fabric.

The water-repellent finish has likely worn off. Wash the garment and apply a PFC-free waterproofing spray or wash-in treatment to restore performance.

Hood feels too large or obscures vision.

Utilize the integrated adjustment points on the hood to tighten the fit around your head and maintain a clear line of sight.

Internal condensation during activity.

Use the internal ventilation button to allow moisture and excess heat to escape while maintaining the integrity of the parka.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your parka, it is important to follow proper care protocols. Always follow the garment's wash label, typically recommending low-temperature machine washing with a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, as these can compromise the waterproof membrane and the effectiveness of the water-repellent finish. Because the parka features a PFC-free water-repellent coating, you may notice water stops beading on the surface after extensive wear; in this case, a wash-in or spray-on re-proofer can be used to reactivate the protective layer. Always hang the coat to air dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent damage to the synthetic padding.
