How many pockets does the parka have?

The parka features two front popper-fastening pockets and one inner security pocket.

Can I adjust the hood?

Yes, the parka has a three-piece adjustable hood that you can tailor for a better fit.

What is the length of the parka?

This is a longline parka, providing extended coverage.

What are the washing instructions?

You can machine wash the parka at 30°C, tumble dry on low heat, and iron on a low setting. Do not bleach or dry clean.

What sizes are available?

This specific variant is for Size 8. Please refer to the product listing for other available sizes.

Troubleshooting

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper. Gently try to work it back and forth. Lubricating the zipper teeth with a graphite pencil (rubbing the tip along the teeth) can sometimes help.

Poppers are loose or do not fasten securely.

This might indicate wear and tear. For minor looseness, you can try to gently crimp the male part of the popper with pliers, but be careful not to damage it. Significant issues may require professional repair.

Parka feels damp inside after wear.

Ensure the parka is fully dry before storing. If the issue persists after washing and drying, the showerproof coating might be compromised or the material may not be fully breathable for high activity levels.
