The Ared 15/30 fabric offers a waterproof rating of 15,000mm and a breathability rating of 30,000g/m²/24hrs.
The jacket is designed for skiing and provides good insulation with its padded design and water-repellent features. For extreme cold, layering with appropriate thermal base layers and mid-layers is recommended.
Wash on a gentle cycle at 30°C with liquid detergent, avoiding fabric softener. It's recommended to use a technical cleaner and consider a DWR treatment after washing to maintain water repellency.
'PFC Free' means the jacket's water-repellent finish does not contain perfluorinated chemicals, which are harmful to the environment.
While optimized for skiing, its waterproofing and breathability make it suitable for other outdoor winter activities like hiking or snowboarding. However, features like the snowskirt are specific to snow sports.
The wired peak on the hood allows you to shape it for a better fit and visibility, helping to keep rain or snow away from your face and eyes.
The ski pass pocket is typically located on the sleeve of the jacket for easy access when using ski lifts.
Clean the jacket thoroughly using a technical wash designed for waterproof outerwear. After washing, apply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment according to the product's instructions to restore its water-repellency.
Clean the zipper teeth gently with a soft brush and warm water. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or wax specifically designed for zippers to ensure smooth operation.
Ensure the jacket is clean, as dirt and oils can clog the fabric's pores. Wash using a technical cleaner and check that the inner scrim back panel is also clean. Ensure no fabric softener was used during washing.
Check the drawcords and toggles for any damage or wear. Ensure they are fully tightened to secure the hood's position.
Setup: This jacket requires no specific setup beyond adjusting the cuffs, hem, and hood to your desired fit. Ensure all zippers are fully closed before use.
Compatibility: Designed primarily for skiing and snowboarding. It pairs well with thermal base layers and ski pants. The unisex design makes it versatile for adult skiers.
