Extended Product Information
FAQs
Is this jacket fully waterproof?
No, it is water-resistant. It features a DWR treatment to shed light rain but is not suitable for heavy, sustained downpours.
Does it have a hood?
The core design focuses on the chest and cuff features. Always verify your specific model variant for hood inclusion.
How should I wash the jacket?
Wash in cold water on a gentle cycle. Do not use fabric softener, as this strips the water-repellent finish.
Is this jacket windproof?
Yes, it contains a specialized internal membrane designed to block wind from passing through the fabric.
What is the warranty period?
The jacket comes with a 2-year warranty covering manufacturing defects.
Can I wear this in the snow?
It is suitable for light, dry snow, but for wet, heavy snow conditions, a dedicated waterproof shell is recommended.
Troubleshooting
Water starts soaking into the fabric rather than beading.
The DWR coating has likely worn off. Re-apply a DWR spray treatment to restore water repellency.
Zipper feels stiff or catches.
Clean any debris or grit from the zipper teeth using a soft brush and apply a small amount of zipper lubricant if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your jacket performing at its best, avoid using fabric softeners when washing, as they can break down the DWR coating and reduce water repellency. Wash the garment on a gentle cycle in cold water and air dry. If the water-beading effect begins to diminish over time, you can refresh the DWR treatment using a spray-on product specifically designed for softshell materials. For the best fit, check the internal tags to ensure you are layering appropriately for the season.
