Troubleshooting
Jacket feels damp inside despite being waterproof.
Ensure you are wearing appropriate moisture-wicking base layers to manage perspiration effectively. Over-layering can also lead to internal condensation. Check that all zippers (especially pit zips if available) are closed in wet conditions.
Snow is getting in from the bottom of the jacket.
Ensure the fixed snow skirt is properly fastened and sits snugly around your waist. The gel grip should help keep it in place. If wearing the jacket over bulky layers, adjust them to allow the snow skirt to sit flush.
Hood feels too loose or doesn't stay in place.
Utilize the concealed adjusters on the hood. Tighten them to create a more secure and customized fit around your head and helmet. Experiment with the tension to find the balance between protection and comfort.

General Care Recommendations for Polyester Ski Jackets:
- Washing: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners as they can impair waterproofing and breathability.
- Drying: Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight. Ensure the jacket is completely dry before storage to prevent mildew.
- Re-proofing: Over time, the durable water-repellent (DWR) finish may wear off. You may need to apply a DWR re-proofing product to maintain optimal water repellency.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Ensure zippers are closed and pockets are empty.
