FAQs

Is this jacket fully waterproof?

No, it is water-resistant. It provides protection against light rain and showers, but will soak through in heavy or persistent rain.

Can I wear this in the winter?

Yes, it can be worn as a mid-layer under a heavier winter coat, or on its own during milder winter days.

How should I clean the jacket?

Use a gentle machine wash cycle with mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners as they can damage the water-resistant coating.

Are the cuffs adjustable?

Yes, the jacket features velcro-adjustable cuffs to help you achieve a secure and comfortable fit.

Does it have internal pockets?

The jacket features secure zip chest pockets for exterior storage.

Troubleshooting

Water begins soaking through the fabric

The water-repellent treatment may have worn off; consider using a specialized DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray to restore the coating.

Difficulty with the zippers

Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper teeth and keep the track clean of mud or debris.
