Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

The jacket provides excellent windproof protection and can be layered with insulating garments for cold weather. However, it is primarily a shell and does not provide insulation on its own.

Can I wear a helmet with this jacket?

Yes, the jacket features a helmet-compatible wired hood designed to accommodate most standard outdoor helmets.

What does '3 Layer' refer to?

A '3 Layer' construction means the waterproof and breathable membrane is sandwiched between the outer fabric and an inner lining, providing durability and comfort.

How do I know if I need to re-proof the DWR coating?

You'll notice that water no longer beads up and rolls off the surface of the fabric but instead soaks in. If the fabric appears to darken when wet, it's time to consider re-proofing.

Is the jacket made from sustainable materials?

The jacket is crafted using recycled polyester fabric, contributing to a more sustainable approach to outdoor apparel.

What is AEP Kenamatics Technology?

AEP Kenamatics Technology refers to the jacket's ergonomic design, featuring articulated panels and zoned construction to enhance freedom of movement and mobility at critical points.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels damp inside during high activity.

Ensure underarm ventilation zips are open. If the issue persists, the fabric's breathability might be reduced due to dirt or residue; clean the jacket using a technical wash.

Water is soaking through the fabric, not beading off.

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. Wash the jacket using a technical wash, tumble dry on low heat, or iron on low heat to reactivate it. If necessary, reapply a DWR treatment.

Zippers are stiff or difficult to move.

Clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and mild soap. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or wax to the zipper for smoother operation.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional waterproof and breathable performance for harsh weather.
  • Excellent freedom of movement due to articulated design and stretch fabric.
  • Thoughtful trail-specific features like ventilation and a wired hood.
  • Made with recycled polyester, offering an eco-conscious choice.
  • Lightweight yet highly protective and durable.

Cons

  • May be overly technical for casual, everyday use.
  • Color family is limited to blue.
  • Specific sizing details might require careful checking.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

This jacket requires no specific setup; it is ready to wear out of the package. It is designed for compatibility with other outdoor gear, such as backpacks and climbing harnesses, due to its articulated fit and adjustable features. To maintain its waterproof and breathable properties, follow these care instructions:

  1. Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle at 30°C (86°F) with a technical wash specifically designed for waterproof and breathable fabrics. Avoid using fabric softeners, bleach, or detergents containing conditioners, as these can clog the membrane's pores.
  2. Rinsing: Rinse thoroughly to remove all detergent residue.
  3. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting for about 20 minutes to reactivate the Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish. If tumble drying is not possible, hang the jacket to air dry and then iron on a low heat setting with a towel between the iron and the jacket.
  4. Re-proofing: If the DWR finish appears to be wearing off (water no longer beads on the surface), apply a new DWR treatment according to the product's instructions after washing and drying.
