Karrimor Urban Waterproof Jacket - Blue

Yes, the Karrimor Urban Waterproof Jacket features advanced Karrimor WeatherTite technology, providing a 10,000mm waterproof rating, meaning it will effectively keep you dry in rain.

'10k waterproof' means the fabric can withstand a 10,000mm column of water before leaking, indicating strong rain protection. '10k breathable' means 10,000 grams of water vapor can pass through a square meter of fabric in 24 hours, allowing internal moisture to escape and preventing clamminess.

Always follow the specific care instructions on the jacket's internal care label. Generally, it's recommended to machine wash cold on a gentle cycle, using a mild detergent specifically designed for waterproof outerwear, and to avoid fabric softeners and bleach. Air dry only.

The hood is not removable; it is a foldaway design that neatly tucks into the collar when not needed, providing adaptable protection without being fully detachable.

The jacket's shell is made from 100% Nylon, offering durability and weather protection. The lining is 100% Polyester, which aids in comfort and ventilation.

The jacket provides excellent waterproofing and breathability for urban and general outdoor environments. For cold winter conditions, you would need to layer appropriately underneath as it is primarily a waterproof shell and does not offer significant insulation on its own.

The cuffs feature hook-and-loop fasteners (often referred to as Velcro) which allow you to quickly tighten or loosen the cuffs around your wrists to achieve a personalized and secure fit, helping to seal out wind and rain.

Check the care label for washing instructions; improper washing or residual detergents can affect the jacket's water repellency. A gentle wash with a technical cleaner designed for waterproof fabrics might restore performance. Avoid fabric softeners.

Ensure you are not overheating. The 10k breathability works best when there's a temperature difference. Consider adjusting the layers worn beneath the jacket. Also, check if all zips are properly closed to prevent external moisture entry.

Utilize the hook-and-loop adjustable cuffs to achieve a more secure or relaxed fit. Adjust them to comfortably seal out wind and rain or provide more ventilation.

Ensure the hood is neatly folded and properly secured within its designated collar compartment. Take care to tuck in all edges to maintain a compact and hidden profile.
