FAQs

What does 'waterproof to 10,000mm' mean?

This rating indicates that the fabric can withstand the pressure of a 10,000mm column of water before it starts to leak. It signifies a high level of protection against rain.

What is Bionic-Finish® Eco?

Bionic-Finish® Eco is a sustainable, fluorine-free water repellent technology that helps water bead and run off the fabric surface, keeping the garment dry and breathable.

Can I remove the hood?

Yes, the hood is designed to be zipped on or off, allowing you to adjust your wear based on the weather conditions or personal preference.

How do I ensure the best fit for riding?

Due to the contour fit, we recommend trying the coat on while in a riding position if possible. Pay attention to freedom of movement in the shoulders and arms, as well as comfort when seated.

What is the benefit of the two-way zip?

The two-way zip allows you to open the coat from either the top or the bottom. This is particularly useful when riding, as it can provide extra space and comfort when seated in the saddle.

How often should I re-apply the DWR finish?

The frequency depends on usage and washing. It's generally recommended to re-apply DWR treatment when you notice water no longer beads effectively on the fabric surface, typically after several washes or prolonged use in wet conditions.

Is this coat suitable for very cold weather?

The coat provides excellent protection from wind and rain. For very cold conditions, layering with insulating mid-layers would be recommended to achieve warmth.

Troubleshooting

Water is soaking into the fabric instead of beading off.

The Durable Waterproof Repellent (DWR) finish may need to be reapplied. Clean the coat according to care instructions and then use a suitable DWR spray or wash-in treatment, following the product's specific instructions. Ensure the coat is not saturated before applying the treatment.

Coat feels less breathable than expected.

Check for blockages in the fabric pores. Ensure you are not using fabric softeners during washing. Make sure the coat is clean, as dirt and residue can impede breathability. Consider a gentle wash cycle with a technical fabric cleaner.

Zip is stiff or difficult to move.

Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zip teeth. Gently try to work the zip back and forth. Apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant or graphite (from a pencil tip) to the zip teeth to help it glide smoothly.
