Peter Storm Packable Hooded Waterproof Jacket - Black

This jacket is designed primarily for waterproof protection. While it can be layered over warm clothing, it does not offer significant insulation on its own and is best suited for mild to cool, wet conditions.

Machine wash on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent, no fabric softener or bleach. Tumble dry on low heat or air dry.

The PU (Polyurethane) coating enhances the jacket's waterproof capabilities by providing an additional barrier against water penetration.

While it offers waterproof protection, the jacket may not be as breathable as specialized running gear. It is more suited for activities like walking and hiking.

The jacket is designed to be folded down and stored inside an included stuff sack, making it compact and easy to carry in a bag.

The dropped hem extends lower at the back, offering increased coverage and protection from rain and wind, especially when in a seated or bent position.

The hood features a cordlock toggle system that allows you to tighten it around your face for a secure fit, helping to keep rain out.

Check if the waterproof coating needs reapplication. Ensure all seams and closures are properly sealed. Machine wash gently and consider a DWR treatment.

Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a silicone-based lubricant to the teeth.

The elastic cuffs are designed for a snug fit. If too tight, try stretching them gently. If too loose, consider if a smaller size would be more appropriate for future purchases.

Ensure the jacket is folded compactly before placing it in the stuff sack. Practice folding it into smaller sections to make it fit more easily.
