Product Information
Full details
The Ridgeline Torrent III Jacket is a high-performance field coat designed for outdoor enthusiasts and hunters who require reliable, heavy-duty protection in unpredictable weather. Engineered with a durable 2-layer construction and a 10,000mm hydrostatic head rating, it offers 100% waterproof and windproof capabilities while remaining highly breathable. While it excels in rugged environments, its robust construction means it is heavier than lightweight packable shells, making it better suited for long-term field use rather than ultralight hiking.

FAQs
Is the hood removable?
Yes, the Torrent III features a three-way adjustable hood that can be fully detached when not needed.
What is the waterproof rating of this jacket?
The jacket has a hydrostatic head rating of 10,000mm, making it highly effective against heavy rain.
Does it offer enough room for layering underneath?
The jacket is designed for field use and features a generous cut to allow for insulating mid-layers underneath.
Is the fabric noisy when walking?
No, the jacket is constructed from specialized silent fabric to minimize rustle, making it ideal for stealthy field activities.
Can I wash the jacket in a standard washing machine?
You should use a gentle cycle with a specialized technical cleaner. Avoid standard detergents and fabric softeners, as they can damage the waterproof membrane.
What does the 5,000 g/m2/24hrs rating mean?
This indicates the jacket's breathability, measuring how much moisture vapour can pass through the fabric over 24 hours.
Troubleshooting
Water stops beading on the surface of the fabric
The DWR finish has likely worn off. Wash the jacket with a technical gear cleaner and apply a spray-on or wash-in DWR revitalizer.
Feeling damp inside the jacket
Ensure you are not over-layering, as the jacket's breathability is limited. If moisture buildup persists, adjust the two-way front zip for better ventilation.
Zipper is sticking or stiff
Clean any debris from the zipper tracks using a soft brush and consider applying a dedicated zipper lubricant if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of the jacket, users should adjust the fit using the internal waist drawcord and cuffs before entering the field to create a proper seal against the wind. When the jacket becomes soiled with mud or dirt, it should be cleaned according to manufacturer instructions—typically using a technical detergent designed for waterproof gear to ensure the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish is not stripped away. Periodically, the outer shell may require re-waterproofing treatment if water stops beading on the surface. When storing, ensure the jacket is completely dry to prevent mold growth on the internal membrane, and store in a cool, ventilated area away from direct sunlight.
