Full details
The Craghoppers NosiLife Anya II Jacket is designed for adult females seeking lightweight, practical warmth for outdoor adventures. Its key benefit lies in its integrated insect-repellent and odor-elimination technology, ensuring comfort and freshness throughout the day. A potential caveat is that its primary function is lightweight warmth, not heavy-duty insulation for extreme cold. This technical fleece jacket features super-light grid fleece for on-demand warmth, NosiLife technology to repel insects and eliminate odors, and is made with recycled and bio-based carbon smart polyester.

FAQs
What does 'NosiLife' technology do?
NosiLife is an integrated fabric technology that provides built-in, long-lasting insect repellency and odor elimination. It works continuously to ward off midges, mosquitoes, and other biting insects, and to help eliminate odors, keeping you fresh.
Is this jacket waterproof?
No, the Anya II Jacket is a technical fleece and is not waterproof. It is designed to provide warmth and breathability, and would typically be worn as a mid-layer or as an outer layer in dry conditions.
How do I wash the jacket?
The jacket is machine washable. Use a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners. It is quick-drying and can be air-dried or tumble-dried on low heat.
What is the fabric made of?
The outer fabric is made of 65% Polyester (Recycled) and 35% Bio3 Carbon Smart Polyester. The pocket lining is 100% polyester.
Can I wear this in very cold weather?
This jacket provides lightweight warmth and is best suited for mild to cool conditions, or as a layering piece under a warmer jacket or shell in colder weather.
Are the thumbholes adjustable?
The thumbholes are integrated into the sleeve cuffs and are not adjustable; they are designed to provide additional coverage and warmth for the hands.
How long does the NosiLife treatment last?
The NosiLife treatment is incorporated into the fabric and is designed to be durable throughout the lifetime of the garment, provided it is cared for according to the washing instructions.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels less warm than expected
This jacket is designed for lightweight warmth. For colder conditions, consider layering it with a heavier insulating jacket or a waterproof shell.
Insect repellent seems less effective
Ensure the NosiLife treatment has not been compromised by harsh detergents or fabric softeners. Re-washing with mild detergent might help. Effectiveness can also vary by insect type and density.
Odor elimination not as noticeable
The odor elimination works continuously to neutralize odors. Its effectiveness can be influenced by factors like sweat intensity and environmental conditions. Regular washing with mild detergent will maintain its performance.
Zipped pockets are stiff
Ensure the zipper is free of debris. A light application of wax or a specific zipper lubricant can help smooth operation.
