FAQs
Is the hood detachable?
No, the hood is permanently integrated but is fully adjustable for fit.
Can I wear this in extreme sub-zero weather?
The parka is rated for temperatures down to -10°C. For colder environments, consider layering underneath.
How does the oversized fit run?
The parka is intentionally designed with extra volume. Most users find it fits true to its intended oversized look, but if you want a closer fit, consider sizing down.
Are the pockets deep enough for large smartphones?
Yes, the pockets are designed for utility and easily accommodate modern smartphone sizes.
Can I machine wash the parka?
Always check the garment tag, but typically technical parkas should be washed on a gentle cycle with cold water and dried carefully according to instructions.
Troubleshooting
Zipper feels stiff or difficult to engage
Ensure the two-way zipper is fully aligned at the base and check for fabric obstructions in the track.
Magnetic pockets not staying closed
Check the magnets for any metallic debris or dirt buildup and wipe them clean with a soft cloth.
Water repellency seems less effective
The outer layer may need a re-application of a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray specifically formulated for technical fabrics.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maintain the water-repellent properties and the integrity of the insulation, please follow the care label attached to the interior of the garment. Generally, you should spot-clean the exterior shell with a damp cloth. If a full wash is required, use a mild technical detergent suitable for insulated outerwear and avoid aggressive spin cycles. Store the parka in a cool, dry place on a wide-shouldered hanger to maintain the shape of the hood and the drape of the oversized silhouette. Ensure all magnetic closures are cleared of debris occasionally to keep them functioning correctly.
