Full details
The Timberland Mobi Flex Tech Waterproof Jacket in Blue, size M, is designed for adult females seeking reliable protection from the elements. Its key benefit is robust waterproof and windproof performance combined with breathability, making it ideal for outdoor activities. A potential caveat is that while it offers significant protection, it is constructed from 100% recycled polyester, which may have different tactile qualities than traditional materials. This jacket features a 3-layer fabric construction, a brushed back for comfort, sealed seams, and adjustable elements for a customized fit. It also includes underarm zips for ventilation and multiple secure pockets.

FAQs
What does 'ReBOTL™ material' mean?
ReBOTL™ material is Timberland's proprietary fabric technology made from at least 50% recycled plastic bottles. It helps reduce environmental impact by diverting waste from landfills and creating durable, high-quality materials.
How do I ensure the jacket remains waterproof?
Regular cleaning with appropriate detergents and reactivating the DWR finish by tumble drying are key. If water repellency diminishes significantly, apply a DWR re-treatment spray or wash-in product.
Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?
This jacket is designed for waterproof and windproof protection. For very cold conditions, it is recommended to layer insulating clothing underneath, such as a fleece or down jacket, to provide warmth.
Can I wash this jacket in a washing machine?
Yes, you can machine wash it on a gentle cycle with cold water and a liquid detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, bleach, and powdered detergents.
What is the purpose of the underarm zips?
The underarm zips are ventilation features that allow you to quickly release excess heat and moisture during strenuous activities, helping to regulate your body temperature and maintain comfort.
How do I adjust the hood and hem?
The hood can be adjusted using the drawstring and cord lock. The hem is also adjustable via a drawstring, allowing you to cinch it for a closer fit and to prevent wind and rain from entering.
What are the pocket types and locations?
The jacket features 2 side pockets and 2 chest pockets, some of which have waterproof zips for secure storage.
Troubleshooting
Water is not beading on the jacket's surface.
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may need to be reactivated or reapplied. Try tumble drying the jacket on low heat for 20 minutes with a few towels. If this does not resolve the issue, apply a DWR re-treatment product following the manufacturer's instructions.
Jacket feels clammy or wet inside during use.
Ensure underarm zips are open for ventilation if needed. The breathability of the fabric may be compromised if it is dirty or if the DWR is not functioning. Clean the jacket according to the care instructions and consider re-applying DWR.
Zippers are stiff or difficult to operate.
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and mild soap and water to remove any dirt or salt residue. Lubricate the zipper with a wax-based product specifically designed for zippers, or a graphite pencil lead.
Seams appear to be leaking water.
This could indicate damage to the seam tape. Ensure the jacket is clean and dry. If the issue persists, contact customer support for potential repair or replacement options.

Care Instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle with cold water. Use a small amount of liquid detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, bleach, or powdered detergents, as these can damage the waterproof coating and membrane.
