FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?

Yes, the jacket is crafted from advanced waterproof Ared 10/10 fabric and features a water-repellent finish, designed to keep you dry in rainy conditions.

How do I properly wash this jacket?

Always check the care label inside the jacket first. Generally, remove the faux fur trim, close all zips, and machine wash on a gentle cycle with a technical detergent suitable for waterproof garments. Air dry away from direct heat.

Can the faux fur trim be removed from the hood?

Yes, the fixed adjustable hood includes a removable faux fur trim, offering versatility in look and making washing easier.

Is the insulation used in the jacket environmentally friendly?

Yes, the jacket is filled with recycled high-warmth ILoft Ecofill, which provides superior warmth while being an environmentally conscious choice.

Does this jacket feel bulky when worn?

No, the jacket features a stylish padded silhouette filled with ILoft Ecofill, designed to provide superior warmth without bulk.

What does 'Ared 10/10' fabric mean?

'Ared 10/10' refers to Dare 2b's advanced waterproof and breathable fabric technology. The '10/10' typically indicates a hydrostatic head of 10,000mm and breathability of 10,000g/m2/24hrs, providing excellent protection against water and allowing moisture vapor to escape.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels less warm over time.

Ensure proper cleaning and drying methods are used to maintain the loft and effectiveness of the ILoft Ecofill insulation. Avoid compressing the jacket for long periods.

Water repellency seems reduced, and fabric wets out.

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may need reapplication. Wash the jacket using a technical cleaner and then apply a DWR restoration treatment suitable for waterproof fabrics, following product instructions.

Faux fur trim appears matted or loses fluffiness after cleaning.

Always remove the faux fur before washing the jacket. Hand wash the faux fur gently and allow it to air dry. Once dry, use a soft brush to carefully fluff the fibers back into shape.

Zipper snags or becomes difficult to move.

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Clean any dirt or debris from the zipper. If it continues to stick, apply a zipper lubricant or rub a pencil graphite along the teeth to ease movement.

Care Instructions

Following these care steps will help maintain your jacket's performance and longevity:

  1. Read the Care Label: Always refer to the specific washing instructions on the inside care label of your jacket.
  2. Remove Faux Fur: Detach the faux fur trim from the hood before washing the main jacket. Hand wash the faux fur separately with mild detergent and allow it to air dry, gently brushing to restore fluffiness.
  3. Washing the Jacket: Close all zippers and fasteners. Machine wash the jacket on a gentle cycle, preferably with a technical detergent designed for waterproof and breathable fabrics, to preserve its properties. Use cool or lukewarm water.
  4. Avoid Softeners: Do not use fabric softeners or bleach, as these can damage the waterproof membrane and insulation.
  5. Drying: Hang the jacket to air dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat. Avoid tumble drying unless explicitly stated on the care label, and if permitted, use a low heat setting with dryer balls to help fluff the insulation.
  6. Water Repellency: Over time, the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish may wear off. You can restore it using a spray-on or wash-in DWR treatment specifically for outdoor garments.
