FAQs

What type of weather is this jacket best suited for?

This jacket is best suited for mild to moderate weather conditions, providing protection against wind and light rain. It's ideal for days with unpredictable showers or breezy temperatures.

Can I wear this jacket in heavy rain?

While the jacket has a water-repellent finish, it is not designed for prolonged exposure to heavy rain. For very wet conditions, a fully waterproof jacket would be more appropriate.

How do I determine my size?

The jacket is available in sizes S (38 in.), M (40 in.), L (42 in.), XL (44 in.), XXL (48 in.), 3XL (51 in.), 4XL (54 in.), and 5XL (57 in.). Please refer to the chest measurements provided to select the best fit.

Is this jacket insulated?

The jacket is described as insulating, meaning it provides a degree of warmth due to the softshell material, but it does not feature a heavy thermal lining. It's designed to work well with layering.

What material is the jacket made of?

The jacket is made from 96% Polyester and 4% Elastane, providing a balance of durability, stretch, and quick-drying properties.

How should I wash the jacket?

Machine wash at 30°C with a mild detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low heat or air dry.

Can I wear a backpack over this jacket?

Yes, the relaxed fit and durable polyester material make it suitable for wearing with a backpack. However, prolonged friction from a heavy backpack may affect the fabric's appearance over time.

What does 'DWR Finish' mean?

'DWR' stands for Durable Water Repellent. It's a coating applied to fabrics that causes water to bead up and roll off the surface, helping to keep you dry in light rain.

Troubleshooting

Water repellency is decreasing.

Ensure the jacket is clean. Consider applying a DWR re-proofer spray or wash-in treatment following the product's instructions. Avoid using fabric softener during washing.

Jacket feels damp after activity.

The fabric is designed to be breathable and quick-drying. Minor dampness from perspiration should dissipate quickly. Ensure the DWR finish is intact; if not, re-apply.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Gently try to move the zipper. If it's still stiff, you can use a graphite pencil or a silicone-based lubricant along the teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper.

Jacket is less wind-resistant than before.

Check that all zippers and the toggle hem are properly secured to minimize wind ingress. Ensure the fabric itself is not compromised.

Pros and Cons

  • Offers good protection against wind and light rain.
  • Lightweight and quick-drying for comfort during activity.
  • Adjustable hem and collar enhance protection from the elements.
  • Relaxed fit allows for comfortable layering.
  • Practical with two lower pockets for storage.

Cons

  • May not be suitable for very heavy rain.
  • Relaxed fit might not appeal to everyone.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This jacket requires no setup as it is ready to wear out of the packaging. It is compatible with various outdoor clothing layers, such as base layers and mid-layers, depending on the ambient temperature. To maintain the jacket's performance, especially its water-repellent properties, follow these care instructions:

  1. Washing: Machine wash at 30°C (86°F) using a mild detergent. Do not use bleach or fabric softeners, as these can damage the fabric's technical properties.
  2. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang to air dry. Avoid high heat which can degrade the DWR finish.
  3. Re-proofing: For optimal water repellency, consider using a technical re-proofer spray or wash-in treatment after several washes, following the product's instructions.
  4. Ironing: Do not iron. If necessary, iron on a very low setting, away from any prints or logos.
