FAQs

What is the hydrostatic head rating of the Zohra Jacket?

The Zohra Jacket has a hydrostatic head rating of 30,000mm, indicating excellent waterproof performance.

Is the jacket suitable for very cold weather?

The Zohra Jacket is a technical shell designed for waterproof and windproof protection. It is not insulated. For very cold weather, you will need to layer warm mid-layers (like fleece or down jackets) underneath.

How do I clean the jacket to maintain its performance?

Machine wash on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent, avoiding bleach or fabric softeners. Rinse thoroughly and tumble dry on low heat or hang to dry. Periodic re-proofing may be necessary.

What does 'H2OShield finish' mean?

H2OShield is a durable water repellent finish applied to the jacket's outer fabric. It causes water to bead up and roll off, helping to maintain the fabric's breathability and prevent it from becoming saturated.

Can I wear this jacket for strenuous activities?

Yes, the jacket's high breathability rating (30,000g/m2/24hrs) and stretch fabric make it suitable for strenuous activities like hiking and trekking, as it helps to manage moisture build-up.

What is the length of the jacket?

The jacket has a length of approximately 26 inches, offering good coverage.

Does this jacket have a removable hood?

The jacket features a grown-on hood, meaning it is permanently attached and not removable.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer beading water effectively.

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish likely needs re-application. Clean the jacket according to care instructions, then apply a suitable waterproofing spray or wash-in treatment. Ensure it is fully dry afterwards.

Water is seeping through seams.

While rare with fully taped seams, if this occurs, it might indicate damage to the tape. Ensure the jacket has been washed and dried correctly. For persistent issues, contact customer support.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Clean the zipper track gently with a damp cloth and mild soap to remove any dirt or salt. Apply a small amount of wax (like beeswax or a zipper lubricant) to the teeth. Avoid forcing the zipper.

Reduced breathability (feeling clammy inside).

The jacket may require cleaning to remove body oils and dirt that can clog the membrane pores. Wash according to instructions with a technical fabric cleaner. Ensure it is rinsed thoroughly.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent waterproof and breathable performance for diverse weather conditions.
  • Made with a significant proportion of recycled materials.
  • Adjustable features (hem, hood) allow for a personalized fit.
  • Multiple secure zipped pockets for convenient storage.
  • Durable water repellent finish enhances protection.
  • Stretch fabric provides comfort and ease of movement.

Cons

  • May run true to size, so check measurements if a looser fit is desired.
  • The technical nature means it might be warmer than a lightweight shell in mild conditions.
  • Requires specific care to maintain waterproof properties.
  • Design is pared-back, which might not appeal to those seeking highly stylized outerwear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

The Zohra Jacket requires no specific setup beyond adjusting it to your fit. Ensure all zippers are fully closed before wearing. The hood can be adjusted using the drawcords to achieve a snug fit around the face.

Compatibility:

This jacket is designed as an outer layer and can be worn over various base and mid-layers. For colder conditions, pair it with fleece or insulated layers. Its regular fit accommodates a range of clothing beneath.

Care Instructions:

  • Washing: Machine washable. Use a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Do not use bleach or fabric softeners, as these can degrade the waterproof and breathable membranes.
  • Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang to dry. Ensure the jacket is completely dry before storing.
  • Re-proofing: To maintain the water-repellent finish, periodically apply a water-repellent spray or wash-in treatment suitable for technical outdoor gear. Follow the product instructions carefully.
  • Cleaning Zippers: Regularly clean zippers with a damp cloth to ensure smooth operation. Avoid harsh chemicals.
