K-Way Jacket Arsene Plus.2 - Blue - M

The jacket is waterproof and features heat-sealed seams, offering good protection for moderate to heavy rain. However, for prolonged exposure in extreme conditions, a more robust technical shell might be necessary.

The coated nylon side offers a shinier finish and enhanced water repellency. The plain nylon side provides a more matte, casual look. You can choose based on the weather, your outfit, or your desired aesthetic for the day.

While breathable, the jacket is primarily designed for mid-seasons. In very warm weather, it may feel too warm, especially the coated side. It's best suited for temperatures ranging from cool to mild.

The jacket has a slim fit. It is designed to be close to the body, so if you prefer a looser fit or plan to wear thick layers underneath, consider sizing up.

Avoid using fabric softeners or bleach during washing. After washing, do not tumble dry; instead, lay flat to dry. Reapply a waterproofing treatment specifically designed for nylon fabrics if you notice a significant decrease in water repellency.

It means the nylon used in the jacket's construction has been processed from post-consumer or post-industrial waste, reducing the need for virgin materials and contributing to environmental sustainability.

The jacket features two zipped pockets and two press stud pockets, providing secure options for carrying essentials like keys, a wallet, or a phone.

Ensure the jacket is clean. Consider using a specialized re-waterproofing spray suitable for coated and nylon fabrics, following product instructions carefully. Avoid fabric softeners and harsh detergents which can degrade the water-repellent treatment.

Gently try to move the zipper up and down. Apply a small amount of graphite pencil lead or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper track.

This jacket features a slim fit. For more comfortable layering, consider wearing thinner base layers underneath. If the fit remains too restrictive, it may not be suitable for your preferred layering style or body shape.

Verify that the heat-sealed seams are intact. If they show signs of damage or separation, contact customer support. Ensure you are not exceeding the garment's intended waterproof capabilities.
