What is the material of the windbreaker?

The windbreaker is made of 100% polyester.

How do I adjust the fit?

You can adjust the fit using the touch 'n' close tabs on the cuffs and the drawstrings or adjusters on the hood (if applicable, refer to specific product details).

Can I wear this in cold weather?

This windbreaker is lightweight and primarily designed for wind protection. For colder weather, it's best used as an outer layer over warmer clothing like sweaters or fleece.

Where is the logo located?

The TNF embroidered branding is located on the chest, sleeve, and the back of the shoulder.

What kind of pockets does it have?

It features two large patch pockets with flaps on the front, and two slanted side pockets.

How should I wash this jacket?

It is recommended to machine wash cold with like colors, use a mild detergent, do not bleach, and tumble dry on low or hang dry. Always check the care label on the product for specific instructions.

Troubleshooting

Zipper is difficult to move.

Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently pull the fabric away from the zipper. If still stiff, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth.

Cuff tabs are not staying in place.

Ensure the touch 'n' close tabs are clean and free from lint. Press firmly to secure them. If the hook-and-loop fastener is worn, it may need replacement.

Jacket feels damp inside after light rain.

This is a weather-resistant fabric, not fully waterproof. While it blocks wind and light moisture, prolonged exposure to heavier rain may lead to some dampness. Ensure cuffs and hood are adjusted properly to minimize water ingress.
