FAQs
What activities is this jacket best suited for?
This jacket is ideal for activities like coastal walks, city commuting, casual hiking, and as a wind layer for climbing or bouldering, especially in conditions with wind and light rain.
How does the jacket pack into a bag?
The jacket can be folded and packed into its own kangaroo pocket, which then converts into a compact crossbody bag for easy carrying.
Is this jacket waterproof?
No, the jacket is wind-resistant and features a PFC-free water-repellent coating that sheds light rain showers. It is not waterproof and will not provide protection in heavy or prolonged rain.
What is the benefit of the four-way stretch fabric?
The four-way stretch fabric provides excellent freedom of movement, allowing you to perform a wide range of activities comfortably without feeling restricted by the jacket.
How should I care for the water-repellent finish?
The PFC-free DWR coating can be maintained by washing the garment carefully and reapplying a suitable water-repellent treatment after washing, if you notice a decrease in performance.
Can this jacket be worn in very cold weather?
While it offers wind protection, this jacket is lightweight. For very cold weather, it is best used as an outer layer over insulating garments like fleece or down.
Troubleshooting
Water repellent coating seems less effective
After washing, you may need to re-apply a PFC-free water-repellent treatment. Follow the instructions on the chosen re-proofing product.
Jacket feels restrictive
Ensure you have selected the correct size. The four-way stretch fabric should allow for ample movement; check that nothing is snagging the fabric.
Zipper is stiff
Gently work the zipper up and down. You can apply a small amount of wax or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth if needed.
