FAQs
What is the waterproof and breathability rating of this jacket?
The jacket has a 10K waterproof rating and a 3K breathability rating.
Can I wear a helmet with this jacket?
Yes, the hood is designed to be helmet-compatible and should fit over most standard riding helmets.
How should I clean the jacket?
Machine wash cold with a mild detergent. Do not bleach. Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry.
Does the jacket have pit zips for ventilation?
This model does not feature pit zips, but ventilation can be managed by opening the main front zipper.
What material is the jacket made from?
The main body shell is constructed from 2.5-layer waterproof/breathable fabric made with recycled polyester.
Is the DWR finish permanent?
The DWR finish is durable but will wear off over time with use and washing. It can be reapplied to restore its performance.
What is the length of the jacket for a size small?
The length (HPS - High Point Shoulder) for a size small is 25.5 inches.
Troubleshooting
Jacket is not shedding water effectively.
The DWR finish may need to be reapplied. Clean the jacket according to care instructions and follow the instructions on a suitable DWR re-treatment product.
Water is seeping through seams.
Ensure all seams are intact. If a seam appears damaged or delaminated, contact customer support. For minor seepage, ensure all zippers and closures are fully sealed.
Zipper is difficult to operate.
Gently try to move the zipper. If it catches on fabric, carefully pull the fabric away. Clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and consider a wax-based lubricant if the issue persists.
Jacket feels clammy inside.
This can occur during high-exertion activities. Ensure the main zipper is partially open for ventilation if needed. Check that the helmet hood is not creating a seal that traps moisture. Clean the jacket as sweat and oils can reduce breathability.
