FAQs
Is this jacket windproof?
Yes, the waterproof construction inherently provides an excellent barrier against windchill.
Can I wash this in a washing machine?
Yes, use a gentle cycle with a specialized technical wash for waterproof garments. Avoid fabric softeners.
Does it have internal pockets?
The design focuses on a lightweight profile; check specific interior labeling for pocket configurations based on your specific batch.
Is it suitable for winter sports?
It provides excellent protection against precipitation, but as a lightweight shell, you will need insulating mid-layers to remain warm in freezing temperatures.
How do I ensure the right fit?
The Strathbeg is designed as an outer layer. If you plan to wear heavy sweaters underneath, consider ensuring you have enough room for layering without restricting movement.
Troubleshooting
Water soaking into the outer fabric instead of beading off
The DWR finish may have worn off; apply a waterproof re-proofer spray to the outer layer and let it cure according to the product instructions.
Feeling damp inside the jacket despite no leaks
Check your base layers. If you are wearing cotton, it will absorb sweat. Switch to moisture-wicking synthetic or wool layers to improve breathability.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maintain the jacket's performance, ensure all zippers are fully closed during wash cycles to prevent snagging. Always use a technical cleaner designed for waterproof garments rather than standard laundry detergent, which can strip away the durable water repellent (DWR) finish. The jacket should be air-dried away from direct heat sources to preserve the integrity of the technical membrane. For long-term storage, keep the jacket in a cool, dry place to prevent moisture buildup.
