Product Information

Full details

The Dare2B Padded Jacket Wander is designed for adult females seeking a warm, waterproof, and breathable outerwear option for casual and outdoor activities. Its key benefit is its robust protection against the elements thanks to Ared 10000 technology, combined with a stylish quilted design and sustainable recycled materials. A potential caveat is that it runs on UK sizing, so customers should carefully check the size guide before purchasing.

FAQs

What does Ared 10000 mean?

Ared 10000 refers to the fabric's performance rating, indicating it is waterproof to 10,000mm and breathable to 10,000g/m²/24h, making it suitable for moderate to heavy rain and active use.

How do I find the right size?

Please refer to the 'Size Guide' provided in the product description. Measure your chest circumference and compare it to the UK sizes listed. For example, a UK size 8 corresponds to a 32-inch chest.

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

Yes, the jacket features Iloft Ecofill fabric for high warmth, making it suitable for cold conditions. For extreme cold, layering underneath is recommended.

Can I wear this jacket in heavy rain?

Yes, the Ared 10000 technology provides good waterproof protection, and the heat-sealed baffles and stormflap further enhance its resistance to heavy rain.

How should I clean the jacket to maintain its properties?

Machine wash on a gentle cycle at 30°C with zippers closed. Avoid bleach, fabric softeners, and high heat for drying or ironing. Air drying is recommended.

Is the jacket made entirely from recycled materials?

Does the hood offer adjustability?

The jacket features a hooded neckline with a standing collar for protection. Specific hood adjustment features are not detailed but it is designed to provide coverage.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer waterproof or breathable

Re-waterproof using a suitable spray or wash-in treatment. Ensure the jacket is clean before treatment. Follow product instructions carefully for re-waterproofing agents.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and water. Lubricate with a graphite pencil (rubbing the tip on the teeth) or a specialized zipper lubricant. Avoid forcing the zipper.

Jacket feels less warm than before

Check that the insulation has not become compressed. Ensure the jacket is clean, as dirt and oils can reduce insulating properties. Follow care instructions for washing and drying to restore loft.
