FAQs
What is the primary material of the jacket?
The jacket is primarily made of 100% Polyester, with a Micro Poplin fabric technology.
How warm is this jacket?
It features Warmloft filling (200gsm) and a fleece lining, providing good insulation for cool to cold weather.
Is the jacket waterproof?
The jacket is designed to be water-repellent due to its fabric, but it is not fully waterproof. It is best suited for light rain or drizzle.
How do I determine my size?
For size L, the chest measurement is 42 inches. Please refer to the provided size guide for other sizes.
Can this jacket be worn in very cold, icy conditions?
While the jacket offers good warmth, it is best suited for cool to cold weather and may require layering for extremely low temperatures.
What is the benefit of it being made from recycled materials?
Using recycled materials reduces environmental impact by utilizing existing resources rather than virgin materials, contributing to sustainability.
Are the pockets secure?
Yes, the jacket has two side pockets and one internal security pocket, all with zip fastenings for secure storage.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels cold or not insulating enough
Ensure all zips are fully closed and cuffs are snug. If recently washed, ensure the filling is fully lofted after drying; tumble drying on low heat can help re-fluff the insulation.
Zipper is difficult to move
Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to free the fabric. Lubricate the zipper with a graphite pencil or a small amount of wax if it continues to stick.
Seams are fraying
Trim any loose threads carefully with scissors. For significant fraying, professional repair may be needed.
Pockets feel bulky
Avoid overfilling pockets. Ensure items are placed flat within the pockets to maintain the jacket's streamlined profile.
