FAQs

Is this jacket insulated?

No, it is a 3-layer shell jacket designed to protect against wind and rain, not to provide heat. We recommend layering with a fleece or synthetic mid-layer for warmth.

Is the hood helmet-compatible?

The hood is designed for anatomical fit and adjustment to protect the head during hiking, but it is not specifically engineered for climbing helmets.

Can I use this for winter sports?

While highly technical, it is optimized for hiking. It is waterproof and windproof enough for light winter use, but lacks features like a powder skirt found on dedicated ski shells.

What is the best way to clean this jacket?

Use a gentle cycle in the washing machine with a technical garment cleaner. Do not use fabric softener, as it can damage the waterproof membrane.

Does the fabric stretch significantly?

Yes, the jacket features a knitted stretch fabric construction which provides a high degree of elasticity compared to traditional, stiffer waterproof shells.

Troubleshooting

Water is no longer beading on the fabric surface.

The DWR coating has likely worn off. Wash the jacket and re-apply a technical DWR spray, then tumble dry on low heat to reactivate it.

Condensation building up inside the jacket.

Ensure you are using appropriate moisture-wicking base layers. Even breathable shells struggle to move sweat if the interior layer is made of cotton.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-level waterproof and windproof performance
  • Exceptional freedom of movement due to stretch fabric
  • Thoughtful pocket placement for hikers
  • Lightweight and packable construction
  • Fully adjustable features for a secure seal

Cons

  • Not insulated, requires base or mid-layers for warmth
  • Specific fit may require layering consideration
  • Lighter material may be less abrasion-resistant than heavy-duty mountaineering shells

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of the jacket, follow these guidelines:

  1. Layering: Wear this as your outer shell. Pair with a technical base layer or a light fleece mid-layer depending on the temperature.
  2. Adjustments: Use the hem cinch-cord to seal out drafts and the cuff tabs to keep water from running down your sleeves when using trekking poles.
  3. Cleaning: Wash in a machine on a gentle cycle with cold water. Use a technical detergent designed for waterproof gear.
  4. Maintenance: Regularly re-apply a Durable Water Repellent (DWR) spray once water stops beading on the surface to maintain the jacket's waterproof performance.
