FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?

The Hydroforce jacket features a waterproof and breathable 3-layer membrane, designed to offer protection in wet conditions. For prolonged exposure to heavy downpours, additional waterproof gear might be considered.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the size guide provided with the product information. The jacket is sized based on chest measurements (e.g., L is for a 42-inch chest). It's recommended to measure your chest and compare it to the chart.

Can I wear this jacket in cold weather?

Yes, the wind-resistant membrane and softshell fabric provide warmth. For very cold conditions, layering with a fleece or insulated mid-layer is recommended.

What is the 'Atl durable water repellent finish'?

This is a treatment applied to the outer fabric that causes water to bead up and roll off, helping to keep the jacket's surface dry and maintain its breathability.

How should I clean the jacket?

Machine wash at 40°C with similar colours. Do not bleach, tumble dry, or iron. Close zippers before washing.

Does it have a hood?

Yes, it features a foldaway, wraparound lined hood with an adjuster for a customizable fit.

What materials is the jacket made from?

The main fabric is 100% softshell Nylon. It has a polyester mesh lining and textured ripstop shoulder panels.

Troubleshooting

Water is seeping through the fabric.

Ensure the durable water repellent (DWR) finish is still active. Reapply a suitable DWR treatment if necessary. Check that all zippers and seams are intact.

Jacket feels less breathable.

Clean the jacket thoroughly according to care instructions. Ensure the inner lining is not clogged with dirt or debris. Check for any blockages in the membrane, although this is rare.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Gently try to move the zipper. Clean any debris around the zipper teeth. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth.
