The Octagon II Softshell is designed as a versatile, all-season jacket. It offers wind resistance and water protection but provides minimal insulation. For very cold conditions, it is best used as an outer shell layered over warm mid-layers like fleece or down jackets.
Yes, the jacket can be machine washed at 40°C. However, avoid using bleach or fabric softener, as these can damage the waterproof and breathable membrane. Rinse thoroughly and tumble dry on low heat or line dry.
It means the fabric surface is prepared to accept custom printing, such as company logos or designs. It is recommended to consult with a professional printer to determine the best application method for this type of softshell material.
The frequency depends on usage and care. It's recommended to re-apply a DWR treatment when you notice water is no longer beading on the surface. This is typically needed after several washes or significant wear.
The 3-layer membrane is the core technology providing the jacket's waterproof and breathable qualities. It effectively blocks external moisture (rain) while allowing internal moisture (sweat vapor) to escape, keeping you dry and comfortable from both inside and out.
The jacket is primarily made from 96% Polyester and 4% Elastane, forming a 300gsm ETI softshell fabric with a 3-layer membrane.
This may be due to inadequate breathability. Ensure the inner zip guard and pockets are clear of obstructions. Wash the jacket according to care instructions, as trapped dirt or residue can impair breathability. Consider using a technical wash that helps restore fabric performance.
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. Re-apply a DWR treatment designed for outdoor clothing following the product's instructions. Ensure the jacket is clean before application.
Check that the fabric is not caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to free any caught fabric. If the zipper is still stiff, apply a small amount of wax (like beeswax or a silicone-based zipper lubricant) to the teeth.
This jacket features a regular fit and natural stretch. If it feels too restrictive, consider if you are wearing too many thick layers underneath. For future purchases, check the size guide carefully or consider a larger size if you prefer a looser fit.
