FAQs
What does Isotex 15000 mean?
Isotex 15000 is a performance technology that indicates the fabric is waterproof to 15000mm, breathable to 15000g/m²/24hrs, and windproof.
Is this jacket suitable for very cold winter temperatures?
The jacket features Thermo-Guard insulation which provides warmth, making it suitable for cool to cold weather. For extreme cold, layering may be advisable.
How do I know if the XXL size will fit me?
The XXL size corresponds to a 48-inch chest. It is recommended to measure your chest circumference and compare it with the product's sizing chart if available.
Can I wash this jacket in a washing machine?
Yes, the jacket can be machine washed at 30°C with a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach.
What is the purpose of the wired peak on the hood?
The wired peak helps to keep the hood's shape, preventing water from dripping into your eyes and maintaining better visibility in windy and rainy conditions.
Does the jacket have internal pockets?
Yes, the jacket includes one internal zip pocket for secure storage of personal items.
How durable is the DWR finish?
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish is designed to last through several washes but will eventually wear off. Reapplying a DWR treatment can restore its water-repellent properties.
Troubleshooting
Jacket is no longer fully waterproof
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. Reapply a DWR treatment according to the product's instructions.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to use
Clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and water. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or wax to the teeth.
Jacket feels clammy inside
Ensure all ventilation zips are open if applicable. The breathability may be reduced if the fabric is dirty; wash according to care instructions.
