FAQs
What is the fabric composition?
The jacket is made from 50% Nylon, 42% Polyester, and 8% Elastane.
Is the jacket waterproof?
The jacket is water-resistant, but not fully waterproof. It's designed to repel light rain and snow, but not to withstand heavy downpours.
Can I wear this jacket for everyday use?
While technically suitable, the jacket's features are optimized for mountain activities. It may not be the best choice for casual, everyday wear if you don't prioritize its technical characteristics.
How do I adjust the hood?
The hood has adjustment points at the front and back to customize the fit around your head and helmet.
What kind of pockets does it have?
The jacket has zipped hand pockets and a chest pocket.
Is this jacket windproof?
The jacket offers wind resistance but is not fully windproof. The fabric provides some protection against the wind.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels tight in the shoulders or arms.
Ensure you have selected the correct size. Check that you are not wearing too many layers underneath. The articulated sleeves are designed for movement, but the fit should allow for full range of motion.
Hood doesn't fit properly over a helmet.
Adjust the hood using the adjustment points provided. Make sure the helmet is properly positioned under the hood.
Zippers are difficult to operate.
Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper teeth. Lubricate the zippers with a zipper lubricant if necessary.
