FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?
This jacket is water-resistant, meaning it can handle light to moderate rain. For heavy or prolonged rainfall, it may not provide complete protection, and a fully waterproof jacket is recommended.
How do I know if I ordered the correct size?
Refer to the size chart provided by Hunter for specific measurements. This guide provides the L size, but individual measurements are always best.
Can I wear this jacket in cold weather?
The jacket is lightweight and provides minimal insulation. It is best suited for mild to cool temperatures. For colder weather, layering with warmer clothing underneath is advised.
What is the difference between water-resistant and waterproof?
Water-resistant materials repel water to a certain extent, while waterproof materials are designed to prevent water penetration entirely, even under pressure. This jacket is water-resistant.
How should I store the jacket when I'm not using it?
The jacket is designed to be packable. Fold it neatly or stuff it into a small pouch. Store in a dry place.
What materials is the jacket made from?
The jacket is made from 100% Nylon.
Troubleshooting
Jacket not repelling water effectively
The water-resistant treatment may have worn off. Consider re-applying a water-repellent finish suitable for nylon fabrics according to product instructions.
Jacket feels damp after moderate rain
This jacket is water-resistant, not waterproof. For prolonged or heavy rain, it may absorb moisture. Ensure it's not exposed to extreme wet conditions for extended periods.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush. Apply a small amount of graphite pencil lead or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth.
Material feels stiff after washing
Ensure you are using a mild detergent and not using fabric softener, which can affect the material. Tumble dry on low heat to help soften the fabric.
