FAQs
What is the main advantage of the 3D fleece material?
The 3D fleece offers a unique combination of being stretchy, supple, and providing significant warmth without excessive bulk, making it very comfortable to wear.
Are the softshell areas waterproof?
The product description does not specify waterproof capabilities for the softshell reinforcements. They are primarily for durability and protection against abrasion.
How does the women's cut differ from the men's model (5940)?
The women's model (5941) features a tapered waistline for a more feminine and fitted silhouette, whereas the men's model likely has a straighter cut.
Can this jacket be worn as an outer layer in light rain?
The jacket provides some protection against wind and light elements due to the softshell parts, but it is not designed as a waterproof rain jacket. For heavy rain, an additional waterproof outer layer is recommended.
How do I adjust the bottom hem?
The bottom hem can be adjusted using the internal elastic band. You can tighten it to prevent wind from entering.
What is the primary material composition?
The main material is 97% polyester and 3% elastane, featuring a Jacquard knit that is brushed on one side.
Is the hood adjustable?
The hood is fixed and not described as adjustable.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is difficult to operate
Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper teeth. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or wax to the zipper teeth to help it slide smoothly. Check for any debris in the zipper track.
Jacket feels too warm indoors
Utilize the two-way zipper to create ventilation. Open the zipper from the bottom to allow airflow. Consider removing the jacket if moving to a significantly warmer indoor environment.
Fleece material appears matted after washing
Ensure you are washing with similar colors and avoiding harsh detergents or fabric softeners. Tumble dry on a low heat setting, which can help to fluff the fleece. Avoid excessive heat during washing and drying.
Elastic cuffs or hem losing elasticity
Ensure washing and drying temperatures are kept low as per care instructions. High heat can degrade elastic materials over time.
