FAQs

What is the primary purpose of this jacket?

The jacket is designed for running and training, offering lightweight, breathable protection with a water-repellent finish.

Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?

It has a water-repellent finish, which is effective against light rain or drizzle. It is not designed as a waterproof jacket for heavy downpours.

How should I wash the jacket?

Machine wash cold with similar colors. Do not bleach, and tumble dry on low heat. Iron on low heat if needed.

Does the jacket have a hood?

No, this model features a stand-up collar but does not have a hood.

What material is the jacket made of?

The jacket is made of 100% Polyester.

Can I wear this jacket over a hoodie?

Due to its slim fit, it's best worn over lighter base layers. Wearing it over a bulky hoodie might be restrictive.

What does the 'Essentials' in the name signify?

It indicates a focus on core, functional features for running, emphasizing practicality and performance without unnecessary additions.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels too tight

Consider if the slim fit is suitable for your intended use. If not, try a larger size or a different model. Ensure you are not wearing overly thick layers underneath.

Reduced water repellency

The DWR finish can wear off over time. Consider re-applying a DWR treatment suitable for synthetic fabrics after washing, following the product's instructions.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. If it persists, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth. Avoid forcing the zipper.

Underarm ventilation not effective

Ensure the ventilation panels are not obstructed by tight sleeves or base layers. Check that the fabric is clean, as dirt can sometimes impede breathability.
