Product Information
Full details
The SOL'S Shield Windproof Jacket is designed for active adults who require reliable protection against wind and light snow without adding unnecessary bulk. Constructed from 190T polyester, this unisex jacket features a water-repellent finish that makes it an excellent choice for unpredictable weather during commutes or light outdoor activities. While it provides exceptional wind resistance and basic weather shielding, potential buyers should note that it is a lightweight shell and not a heavy-duty insulated parka meant for extreme cold temperatures.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
It is water-repellent, meaning it handles light snow and short bouts of light rain well, but it is not intended for heavy, prolonged rain.
Is this a unisex fit?
Yes, it is designed as a unisex product to fit a wide range of body types comfortably.
Can I wear this in extreme cold?
The jacket acts as a windproof shell. It is best used as part of a layering system; you should wear a fleece or thermal base layer underneath for warmth in cold temperatures.
What does 190T refer to?
190T refers to the thread count/density of the fabric. It indicates a lightweight, tightly woven material that provides a balance between wind resistance and breathability.
Does it have a warranty?
SOL'S maintains high production standards, but please refer to your specific point of purchase for local return and warranty policies.
Troubleshooting
Water starts soaking into the fabric
The water-repellent finish may have worn off. Wash the jacket and re-apply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray specifically designed for synthetic shells.
Zipper is sticking or stiff
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush to remove any dirt or lint. You can apply a small amount of graphite or specialized zipper lubricant to improve the glide.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because the SOL'S Shield jacket is a ready-to-wear outer layer, it requires no setup. To ensure the jacket retains its water-repellent properties, wash it in cold water on a gentle cycle. Avoid using harsh fabric softeners, as these can strip the water-resistant treatment from the polyester fibers. Always hang the jacket to air dry; avoid tumble drying on high heat as this may damage the elastic in the cuffs and hem. For storage, fold or hang it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
