FAQs

What is HELLY TECH® PROTECTION?

HELLY TECH® PROTECTION is a technology that makes the garment waterproof, windproof, and breathable, ensuring you stay dry and comfortable in various weather conditions.

How do I wash the Escape Utility Rain Jacket?

Machine wash in cool water (30°C or 40°C) on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Do not use fabric softener or bleach. Rinse thoroughly.

Can I put the jacket in the dryer?

Yes, you can tumble dry the jacket on a low heat setting. Alternatively, hang it to dry away from direct heat sources.

What is the purpose of the double-entry hand pockets?

The double-entry hand pockets offer versatility. One entry might be a standard zip pocket for security, while the other could be an open-top pocket for quick access to items.

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

This jacket is primarily designed for rain protection. While it can be layered over warmer clothing, it does not offer significant insulation on its own and is best suited for mild to cool wet conditions.

What does Bluesign® main material mean?

It signifies that the primary fabric used in the jacket has been produced using sustainable processes that minimize environmental impact and ensure consumer safety.

How do I adjust the hood?

The hood typically features drawcords and a flexible brim that can be adjusted to provide a secure fit and optimal protection from rain and wind.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer fully waterproof

Ensure the DWR treatment is intact. Wash the jacket according to care instructions and reapply a DWR treatment if necessary. Check seams and zippers for damage.

Zipper is difficult to operate

Clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and mild soap. Lubricate with a graphite pencil or specialized zipper lubricant. Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper.

Hood is not providing adequate coverage

Adjust the hood using the drawcords and flexible brim to achieve a secure and protective fit around your head.

Fit feels too loose

Utilize the adjustable cuffs and hem drawcords to tighten the jacket for a more snug fit and to prevent drafts.
