Craghoppers Expert Womens Base Camp II Softshell Jacket - Blue

No, the jacket features a DWR finish which repels light rain and water-based stains. It is wind-resistant and suitable for showers, but not designed for prolonged heavy rainfall.

Machine wash at 30°C with a mild detergent. Do not use fabric softener. Air dry or tumble dry on a low setting.

Re-apply the DWR treatment when you notice water is no longer beading and rolling off the fabric. This is typically after several washes, depending on usage.

The H2OShield finish repels water and helps prevent water-based stains from penetrating the fabric, keeping you drier and cleaner in light wet conditions.

The jacket provides insulation but is best suited for mild to cool conditions or as a layering piece. For very cold weather, you will need to add warmer layers underneath.

Softshell implies a balance of flexibility, breathability, wind resistance, and some water repellency. It's designed for active use where comfort and freedom of movement are key.

The DWR finish may need re-applying. Follow the care instructions for re-proofing the jacket.

This is a wind-resistant softshell, not a fully waterproof or heavily insulated jacket. For colder or windier conditions, consider layering a warm fleece or insulated jacket underneath.

Address fresh stains immediately. For stubborn water-based stains, gently wipe with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh detergents or scrubbing.
