FAQs
What is CLIMascot insulation?
CLIMascot is a lightweight, soft insulation material developed by Mascot. It provides warmth without bulk and compresses well, making it ideal for mid-layers or for insulation that doesn't restrict movement.
Is this jacket fully waterproof?
No, the jacket is water-repellent, meaning it can resist light rain and moisture. It is not designed for heavy or prolonged downpours. For such conditions, a waterproof outer layer is recommended.
Can I wear this jacket in very cold weather?
The jacket provides good insulation for its weight. For very cold weather, it functions best as a mid-layer, worn over other thermal clothing and under a windproof or waterproof outer shell.
How do I clean the jacket?
The jacket can be machine washed on a colored wash cycle at 40°C. Avoid bleaching, tumble drying, and ironing. Professional dry-cleaning is also an option.
What are the benefits of the stretch fabric at the sides?
The stretch fabric at the sides, combined with ergonomically shaped sleeves, enhances freedom of movement, allowing you to perform physical tasks more comfortably without the jacket restricting your motion.
Are the reflective elements durable?
The reflective elements are designed to increase visibility in low-light conditions. Their durability is dependent on proper care and washing practices, following the recommended guidelines.
What does 'Oeko-Tex® Standard 100' mean?
This certification indicates that the product has been tested for harmful substances and is therefore safe for human health. It signifies compliance with strict environmental and safety standards.
Troubleshooting
Jacket not providing enough warmth.
This jacket is designed for lightweight insulation. For colder conditions, consider layering it with additional thermal clothing or a waterproof outer shell.
Water seeping through during heavy rain.
The jacket is water-repellent, not waterproof. For heavy rain, use a fully waterproof outer garment.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to use.
Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper. Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. If persistent, you can apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or wax to the zipper teeth.
Fit is too loose or too tight.
Adjust the elastic drawstring at the waist for a tighter or looser fit. The stretch fabric at the sides also provides some give. Refer to the sizing chart for accurate measurements if a new size is needed.
