FAQs
Is this jacket warm enough for winter?
The Loke Jacket 2.0 is a shell, not an insulated jacket. It will block wind and rain, but you will need to wear insulating layers underneath for cold conditions.
Can I wash the Loke Jacket 2.0 in a standard washing machine?
Yes, but use a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners or bleach to protect the waterproof membrane.
Does it have a hood?
Yes, it features an adjustable hood to provide coverage and protection against wind and rain.
What does 2.5-layer construction mean?
It refers to a shell fabric with a protective inner print or layer, making it lighter and more packable than a 3-layer garment.
Are the pockets waterproof?
The hand pockets are designed for everyday utility, but they are not fully seam-sealed 'dry' pockets, so keep sensitive electronics in an internal dry bag.
Troubleshooting
Water begins to soak through the outer fabric
The DWR coating has likely worn off. Wash the garment and apply a DWR spray treatment to restore water beading.
Feeling damp inside despite the jacket being waterproof
This is often due to moisture buildup from sweat. Use the under-arm ventilation zippers during exertion to increase airflow.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Loke Jacket 2.0, proper maintenance is essential. Always adjust the hood and hem toggles gently to ensure the elastic cords maintain their tension. When cleaning, machine wash on a warm setting using a gentle detergent specifically designed for technical waterproof fabrics. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can clog the pores of the membrane and compromise breathability. The jacket is best layered over a fleece or base layer, as it is a shell garment. If the exterior water-repellent finish loses its effectiveness over time, consider using a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray treatment to restore its performance.
