FAQs

What does H2No® Performance Standard mean?

H2No® is Patagonia's proprietary standard for waterproof/breathable performance. It ensures the fabric, membrane, and DWR finish provide excellent durability, long-lasting waterproofing, and breathability.

Are there other colors and sizes available?

Yes, the Boulder Fork Rain Jacket is available in various colors and sizes. Please check the product listings for available options.

Can I wear this jacket in very cold weather?

This jacket provides excellent rain protection but is a shell. For very cold weather, it is recommended to layer insulating clothing underneath.

How do I clean the jacket if it gets dirty?

Machine wash cold with liquid detergent, rinse twice, and tumble dry on low heat. Avoid fabric softeners, bleach, and powder detergents.

What is the benefit of the PFC-free materials?

PFCs (perfluorinated chemicals) can persist in the environment. Using PFC-free materials is an eco-conscious choice that reduces the environmental impact of the jacket.

How often should I reapply the DWR treatment?

The need for DWR reapplication depends on usage and washing frequency. If water no longer beads up on the fabric's surface, it's time to reactivate the existing DWR (by drying) or apply a new treatment.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer shedding water effectively (beading)

Wash the jacket according to care instructions and then tumble dry on low heat to reactivate the DWR finish. If water still beads poorly, consider applying a PFC-free DWR treatment.

Seams appear to be leaking

Ensure all zippers are fully closed and the DWR finish is intact. Persistent seam leaks might indicate damage to the seam tape, which may require professional repair.

Jacket feels less breathable than before

Clean the jacket thoroughly with a liquid detergent designed for technical outerwear. Residue from fabric softeners or detergents can clog the membrane's pores.
