Mountain Warehouse Padded Jacket - Green - M

This jacket features a water-resistant DWR finish, making it suitable for light rain and showers. It is not fully waterproof and may not provide adequate protection during prolonged or heavy rainfall.

Please refer to the size chart provided. For size M, the chest measurement is 40 inches. It is recommended to measure your chest circumference and compare it with the provided measurements.

The jacket provides good insulation for moderate cold. For very cold temperatures, it is recommended to layer a warm mid-layer, such as a fleece or thermal top, underneath the jacket for added warmth.

DWR stands for 'Durable Water Repellent'. It is a coating applied to fabrics that causes water to bead up and roll off the surface, helping to keep you dry from light moisture.

The need to re-apply depends on usage and washing frequency. If water no longer beads up on the fabric surface during light rain, it's time to consider re-proofing after cleaning and drying.

While lightweight, the nylon material and DWR finish might limit breathability during very strenuous activities. It is best suited for moderate activity levels or casual wear.

Gently rub a pencil lead or bar of soap along the zipper teeth to lubricate it. Avoid forcing the zipper.

Ensure the jacket is thoroughly dried, preferably in a tumble dryer on a low heat with tennis balls. This helps to redistribute the filling evenly.

The DWR finish may need refreshing. After washing and drying according to instructions, consider applying a DWR re-proofing spray designed for outdoor apparel.

The microfibre filling can become compressed over time. Ensure it is properly dried (tumble dry with tennis balls) to restore loft. For significant loss of warmth, the filling may be degrading.
