Jack Wolfskin Heidelstein Ins Jacket - Green - M

The jacket provides warm synthetic insulation and is waterproof/windproof, making it suitable for cold weather. For extreme cold, layering with additional warm garments is recommended.

Refer to the Jack Wolfskin sizing chart for women's jackets. Compare your body measurements to the chart. If you are between sizes, consider your preferred layering style; size up for bulkier layers underneath.

Yes, the jacket is designed to be waterproof, offering protection against heavy rain. However, prolonged immersion in water may eventually lead to some seepage, especially if the DWR treatment needs reapplication.

Insulated means the jacket contains a layer of material (in this case, synthetic fiber) designed to trap body heat and provide warmth, protecting you from cold temperatures.

Modern recycling processes for materials like polyester ensure that recycled fabrics offer comparable durability and performance to virgin materials for outdoor apparel.

The frequency depends on usage and care. Generally, reapply when you notice water no longer beads up on the surface and begins to soak into the fabric. This might be every few washes or after significant wear.

Ensure the jacket is clean and free from dirt or oils. Reapply a DWR treatment according to the product's instructions. Check if the washing process has removed the original DWR coating.

The synthetic fibers may have become compressed. Tumble dry on a low-heat setting with tennis balls to help re-fluff the insulation. Ensure no moisture is trapped within the padding.

Clean the zipper teeth gently with a soft brush. Apply a small amount of wax (like beeswax or a zipper lubricant) to the teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper.
