ARED 20/30 refers to the technical rating of the fabric. '20' indicates 20,000mm of water column, meaning it can withstand the pressure of a 20-meter column of water before leaking. '30' indicates 30,000 gsm/24hr breathability, meaning 30,000 grams of moisture vapor can pass through a square meter of the fabric in 24 hours.

After washing and drying, you can reapply a DWR treatment by using a spray-on or wash-in product specifically designed for waterproof outerwear. Follow the instructions on the DWR product.

This jacket provides excellent waterproofing and windproofing, making it ideal for protection against the elements. For extreme cold, it is designed to be layered over insulating mid-layers. The base jacket itself is not heavily insulated.

This indicates high moisture vapor buildup. Ensure the garment is not too tightly layered underneath. Open pit zips if applicable (though not a feature of this specific model), or unzip the main jacket slightly to improve ventilation. Check if the fabric's breathability is compromised by dirt and wash according to care instructions.

Gently pull the drawcords and adjusters. Ensure they are not tangled. Refer to the specific adjustment points on the hood for optimal fit.

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and a small amount of mild soap or a specific zipper lubricant if necessary.
