FAQs

What does MTD® technology mean?

MTD® technology refers to a system of materials and manufacturing processes that ensure the garment is waterproof, windproof, and breathable. It provides reliable protection against weather conditions.

Is this parka warm enough for winter?

The parka offers good protection against wind and rain. For very cold winter conditions, it is recommended to layer warm clothing underneath, as it is designed more for weather resistance than heavy insulation.

How do I clean the parka?

Machine wash at 30°C on a delicate cycle with a mild or technical fabric detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach. Tumble dry on low or hang dry.

Can I adjust the hood?

Yes, the attached hood features a drawstring and cord locks that allow you to adjust its fit for optimal protection.

What is the waterproof rating?

The parka has a waterproof rating of 13000 schmerbers, with all seams sealed for maximum water resistance.

Does it have an inner pocket?

Yes, there is one internal pocket with a zip for secure storage of personal items.

How do I care for the waterproof finish?

To maintain water repellency, avoid fabric softeners during washing and consider re-waterproofing the jacket periodically with a suitable spray or treatment, especially after several washes.

Troubleshooting

Water is seeping through the fabric.

The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish may have worn off. Clean the jacket and reapply a suitable waterproofing treatment.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper. Clean the zipper teeth gently with a soft brush and apply a wax-based lubricant or a silicone spray designed for zippers.

Hood adjustment cords are loose.

Check if the cord locks are properly engaged. If they are damaged, they may need replacement.

Jacket feels less breathable.

The fabric may be clogged with dirt or residue. Wash the jacket according to care instructions using a technical fabric cleaner.
