Product Information

Full details

The Ronhill Core Jacket in Blue (XS) is designed for adult female runners seeking a lightweight, breathable, and functional layer for park runs or breezy training days. Its key benefit is providing protection from the elements with a water-resistant and wind-resistant finish without compromising on breathability. A potential caveat is its relaxed fit, which may not be preferred by those seeking a more performance-oriented, snug fit. This jacket offers articulated sleeves for ease of movement, a fleece-lined collar for comfort, and a secure zip pocket for essentials.

FAQs

Is this jacket fully waterproof?

No, the jacket is water-resistant, meaning it can repel light rain and moisture due to its DWR C6 treatment, but it is not fully waterproof and may not withstand heavy downpours.

How do I wash the jacket?

You can machine wash the jacket on a gentle cycle with cold or warm water. Avoid using fabric softeners or bleach.

What is the fit like?

The jacket features a relaxed fit, which provides more room for movement and layering compared to a tight, performance-fit jacket.

Can I wear this in cold weather?

The jacket offers wind resistance and a fleece-lined collar for some warmth, making it suitable for mild to cool conditions. For very cold weather, it's best layered over warmer insulating clothing.

How should I care for the water-repellent finish?

To maintain the water-repellency, avoid using fabric softeners during washing and consider tumble drying on low heat after washing. Re-apply a DWR treatment if the fabric's performance decreases.

What is the purpose of the reflective trim?

The reflective trim is designed to enhance your visibility to others, such as motorists, during dawn, dusk, or nighttime runs.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels damp inside during a run

This can occur if the conditions are very humid or if you are sweating heavily. While the jacket is breathable, extreme conditions can exceed its capabilities. Ensure the main zipper is partially open for increased ventilation if needed.

Water beads are not rolling off the fabric as effectively

The Durable Water Repellency (DWR) treatment may have diminished over time. You can restore this by washing the jacket with a specialized technical wash and then tumble drying on a low heat setting, or by applying a re-waterproofing spray according to product instructions.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. If it persists, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper track.
