Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this jacket fully waterproof?

Yes, it is constructed with ARED 15/15 fabric and is fully seam-sealed to keep you dry in heavy rain.

Does the hood interfere with visibility?

No, the hood features a technical wired peak that allows you to shape the brim to keep rain away from your face without blocking your peripheral vision.

Can I use this for rock climbing?

Yes, the jacket is designed with abrasion-resistant material, making it suitable for technical outdoor pursuits like climbing.

How do I ensure the best fit?

The jacket includes elasticated cuffs and a rear hood adjuster. Use these to tailor the fit to your body for a secure, comfortable experience while moving.

Is the jacket machine washable?

Yes, it is machine washable, but we recommend using a gentle cycle and a technical cleaner, ensuring all zippers are closed first.

Troubleshooting

Water begins soaking into the fabric rather than beading off.

The DWR finish has likely worn off. Wash the jacket with a technical cleaner and re-apply a DWR spray treatment to restore the water-repellent properties.

The jacket feels damp inside despite light rain.

Ensure you are not over-layering, as this can reduce the breathability of the membrane. Check that the cuffs and hood are properly tightened to prevent moisture entry.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extremely lightweight and easy to pack for long treks
  • High waterproof and breathability ratings
  • Effective visibility features for safety
  • Durable enough to handle abrasion from climbing
  • Technical hood provides excellent coverage

Cons

  • Not intended as a primary thermal insulating layer
  • Ultra-light fabric requires careful handling to avoid tears on sharp gear
  • Slimmer fit may limit layering options

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To maximize the lifespan of your ARED 15/15 fabric, follow these guidelines: Always zip all zippers and fasten any closures before washing. Machine wash on a gentle cycle with a mild technical detergent—avoid using fabric softeners as these can strip the DWR coating. After washing, hang dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources. Periodically re-apply a DWR spray if you notice water no longer beads on the outer shell. Ensure the jacket is completely dry before storing it for long periods to prevent mold or mildew growth.
