FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
It is water-repellent, meaning it handles light rain well, but it is not fully waterproof and may soak through in heavy rain.
Does it have internal pockets?
The jacket features external zippered pockets; it does not have designated internal pockets.
How should I wash it?
Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle, do not use fabric softeners, and air dry for best results.
Is it suitable for winter running?
It serves well as an outer layer, but you should pair it with thermal base layers if the temperature is significantly low.
What is the best way to store the jacket?
Hang it up in a cool, dry place to maintain the shape and protect the reflective elements.
Troubleshooting
Water-repellent finish seems less effective after several washes
Follow garment care labels strictly and consider using a tech-wash product designed for water-repellent performance gear.
Zipper is catching on the interior fabric
Ensure you are pulling the zipper straight and keep the interior placket smooth; avoid pulling the fabric into the track when closing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This jacket is designed as a standard athletic fit; it pairs well with moisture-wicking base layers or tech tees. To maintain the water-repellent properties, machine wash the jacket on a cold, gentle cycle with mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can clog the fabric pores and degrade the water-repellent coating. Always air dry the garment away from direct heat sources to preserve the integrity of the synthetic materials and the reflective logo.
