FAQs

What does AquaDry Membrane mean?

AquaDry Membrane is a technology used by Craghoppers that provides a waterproof and breathable barrier, designed to keep you dry from both external rain and internal perspiration.

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

The Keskadale Jacket is designed for wet weather protection. For very cold conditions, it is recommended to layer appropriate insulating garments underneath.

How do I re-waterproof the jacket if needed?

You can use a Nikwax or Grangers wash-in or spray-on DWR treatment, following the product's specific instructions. Ensure the jacket is clean and dry before application, and avoid using fabric softener.

What is the H2OShield finish?

H2OShield is a finish applied to the outer fabric that enhances its ability to repel water, causing it to bead and run off the surface, thus maintaining the fabric's breathability and performance.

Can I wash this jacket with other clothes?

No, it is recommended to wash the Keskadale Jacket separately to prevent damage to its waterproof properties and to avoid contamination from other fabrics or detergents.

What is the fit like on this jacket?

The jacket is designed for adult males and offers a fit suitable for outdoor activities, allowing for layering underneath. Specific measurements can be found in the brand's sizing guide.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is not fully waterproof after some use.

Ensure the jacket has been washed according to care instructions and that no fabric conditioner has been used, as this can affect waterproofing. Consider re-applying a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment if performance has significantly degraded.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and a little water. Dry thoroughly and apply a silicone-based lubricant or a graphite pencil (rubbing the lead along the teeth) to improve smooth operation.

Jacket feels clammy inside.

This can sometimes occur in very humid conditions due to condensation. Ensure you are wearing breathable layers underneath and that the jacket's vents (if any) are open. Wash the jacket to ensure the membrane is clear of residues.
