FAQs
Is this jacket fully waterproof or water-repellent?
The jacket is described as water-repellent with waterproofed seams, meaning it is designed to resist water penetration for a period but may not be fully waterproof under heavy or prolonged rainfall.
How do I clean the jacket?
The jacket is machine washable. It is recommended to wash it on a gentle cycle with cold water. Always check the specific care label on the garment for detailed instructions.
What does 'oversized cut' mean for sizing?
An oversized cut means the jacket is designed to be larger and looser than a standard fit, providing a relaxed silhouette. If you prefer a closer fit, consider sizing down.
Can the hood be removed?
The hood is designed to be pack-away, meaning it can be stored within the collar, but it is not fully removable.
What is the belt for?
The belt is removable and can be used to cinch the waist, allowing you to adjust the silhouette of the jacket from an oversized look to a more defined shape.
What material is the jacket made from?
The jacket is made from a blend of 88% polyester and 12% elastane, described as a double-face waterproof stretch fabric.
Does this jacket have inner pockets?
The product description specifies two zipped pockets on the sides. It does not mention inner pockets.
Troubleshooting
Water repellency seems reduced
Ensure the jacket is clean and free from dirt or residue. Reapply a suitable water-repellent treatment if necessary, following the product's instructions. Avoid using fabric softeners during washing.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Check the zipper teeth for any obstructions like fabric or threads. Gently clean the zipper with a soft brush. A small amount of silicone-based lubricant or wax can help ease movement.
Jacket feels less waterproof after washing
Ensure you are using a mild detergent and following the recommended washing temperature. Harsh detergents can strip the water-repellent coating. Consider using a technical wash product designed for waterproof outerwear.
