FAQs
What type of weather is this jacket best suited for?
The jacket is best suited for moderate rain and windy conditions, thanks to its 5000mm hydrostatic head rating and waterproof/breathable construction. It's ideal for hiking, walking, and general outdoor activities in variable weather.
How do I clean the jacket?
Machine wash at 30°C on a gentle cycle using a technical wash or non-biological liquid detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach. Rinse thoroughly and tumble dry on low heat or hang dry. A low heat tumble dry can help reactivate the DWR finish.
What is the hydrostatic head rating?
The jacket has a hydrostatic head rating of 5000mm. This indicates its resistance to water penetration under pressure, offering guaranteed waterproof protection for moderate conditions.
Can I wear this jacket in very cold weather?
This jacket is primarily designed for waterproof and windproof protection. For very cold weather, it is best used as an outer shell layer, with appropriate insulating layers worn underneath.
How many pockets does the jacket have?
The jacket features multiple pockets: two snap closure pockets, two lower zip handwarmer pockets, and one internal zip map pocket.
Is the hood removable?
The product description does not specify if the hood is removable. However, it is fully adjustable with drawcords at the sides and rear for a secure fit.
What material is the jacket made of?
The jacket is made from a waterproof and breathable fabric with a breathable mesh lining. Specific outer material composition is not detailed but is designed for outdoor performance.
Troubleshooting
Jacket is no longer fully waterproof.
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. Clean the jacket thoroughly and re-apply a DWR treatment. Ensure seams are still sealed; if not, professional repair may be needed.
Jacket feels clammy or less breathable.
Check if the inner lining is damp or soiled. Clean the jacket following the care instructions. Ensure the mesh lining is not blocked by debris.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and water. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or wax to the zipper teeth.
Drawcords are difficult to adjust or have lost elasticity.
Clean the drawcord channels to remove dirt. If elasticity is lost, the drawcords may need to be replaced.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care Instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash at 30°C (86°F) on a gentle cycle.
- Detergent: Use a specialized technical wash or a small amount of non-biological liquid detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach, as they can damage the waterproof and breathable properties.
- Rinsing: Rinse thoroughly to remove all detergent residue.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang dry. Once dry, you can briefly tumble dry on a low heat with a towel to reactivate the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish.
- Re-proofing: For best results, re-apply a DWR treatment annually or when water no longer beads on the fabric surface.
