FAQs
Is the hood removable?
No, the hood on the Eva Long Coat is integral, meaning it is permanently attached to the coat. However, it is adjustable for a customized fit.
What does 3000mm waterproof rating mean?
A 3000mm waterproof rating means the fabric can withstand 3000 millimeters of water pressure before water starts to penetrate. This indicates good resistance to light to moderate rain and snow.
Can I wear this coat in very cold temperatures?
Yes, with its insulated padding, the Eva Long Coat is designed to provide warmth in plummeting temperatures. For extreme cold, layering underneath is recommended to maximize thermal insulation.
How do I maintain the waterproof quality?
Regular cleaning according to the care instructions helps maintain waterproofing. If water starts to soak into the outer fabric instead of beading off, you may need to re-apply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment, available at outdoor gear stores.
Is the coat heavy?
The Eva Long Coat includes insulated padding and waterproof layers, giving it a substantial feel designed for warmth and protection. It is comfortable for everyday wear despite its robust construction.
Are the pockets secure?
Yes, the two front pockets feature popper closures to help secure your belongings. However, for maximum security or protection from moisture, consider using a separate waterproof pouch for valuables.
What is the primary use of the two-way zip?
The two-way zip allows you to open the coat from both the top and the bottom. This is particularly useful for increasing mobility when sitting, driving, or climbing, and for ventilation without fully opening the coat.
Troubleshooting
Coat feels damp inside after rain
While breathable, prolonged heavy rain or high exertion can lead to condensation. Ensure the coat is fully zipped, hood is adjusted, and consider layering appropriately. Check if the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment needs reapplication if water is soaking into the outer fabric instead of beading off.
Zip is stiff or difficult to use
Gently apply a small amount of zipper lubricant (e.g., silicone-based) to the teeth. Ensure the fabric lining is not catching in the slider when operating the two-way zip. Always operate the zip smoothly and avoid forcing it.
Pockets are not fully waterproof
The front pockets are designed with popper closures for security but are not guaranteed to be fully watertight. For sensitive items, use an internal waterproof pouch or a completely sealed pocket if available in other garments.

Care Instructions
To ensure the longevity and performance of your Eva Long Coat, follow these care guidelines:
- Machine Washable: Wash the coat in a washing machine according to the care label inside the garment. Use a gentle cycle and a suitable detergent for technical outerwear if available.
- Do Not Tumble Dry: Air dry the coat naturally. Lay flat or hang on a sturdy hanger away from direct heat to preserve the waterproof membrane and insulation. Tumble drying can damage the fabric and waterproof coating.
- Iron on Low Heat: If necessary, iron on a low heat setting. Avoid ironing directly over any printed logos or waterproof coatings.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Ensure it is completely dry before storing to prevent mildew and maintain fabric integrity.
