FAQs

What makes the Keskadale Jacket suitable for wet weather?

The jacket features an AquaDry Membrane outer combined with an H2OShield finish, both of which are designed to provide effective waterproofing and protection against rain.

Is this jacket suitable for all seasons?

The Keskadale Jacket is primarily designed for wet and windy conditions. It offers good protection but might be too warm for activities in hot weather. It is best suited for spring, autumn, and mild winter days, especially when rain is expected.

How should I clean the jacket to maintain its performance?

Machine wash at 30°C on a gentle cycle with a non-biological liquid detergent. Do not use fabric softener or bleach. Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry. Periodically re-proof to maintain water repellency.

What is the significance of the National Trust Collection?

This jacket is part of an exclusive collection designed in partnership with the National Trust, reflecting a shared appreciation for the great British outdoors and potentially supporting conservation efforts.

Does the hood offer adjustable features?

While not explicitly detailed, hooded jackets typically include drawcords or adjusters to customize the fit around the face for better protection against wind and rain.

What material is the jacket made from?

The jacket is made from polyester with an AquaDry Membrane and an H2OShield finish.

Troubleshooting

Water is not beading on the surface anymore

The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish has likely worn off. Clean the jacket and re-apply a waterproofing treatment as per the care instructions.

Jacket feels damp inside after heavy use

While waterproof, some condensation can occur in very humid conditions or during intense physical activity. Ensure all zippers and closures are fully sealed. If the issue persists, consider if the conditions exceed the jacket's optimal breathability range.

Zippers are stiff or difficult to move

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Ensure the zipper pull and track are dry before attempting to use it again. A small amount of silicone-based lubricant can also help.
