'ARED 15/15' refers to the technical rating of the fabric, indicating it has a waterproof rating of 15,000mm and a breathability rating of 15,000/m²/24hrs. This signifies a high level of protection against rain and good breathability.
The jacket is designed for protection against rain and wind. For very cold temperatures, it is recommended to layer the jacket over warm clothing such as fleeces or thermal base layers.
The need to reapply depends on usage and washing frequency. It is generally recommended to reapply after several washes or when you notice water is no longer beading effectively on the fabric surface.
Yes, you can use a mild detergent. However, avoid using fabric softeners or bleach, as these can damage the fabric's waterproof and breathable properties.
Taped seams are strips of waterproof tape applied to the inside of the garment's seams. They prevent water from penetrating through the needle holes created during stitching, ensuring the jacket remains fully waterproof.
The reflective details are designed to withstand normal wear and tear and washing according to care instructions. Over time and with extensive use, their reflectivity may gradually diminish.
Ensure the DWR finish is active. Wash the jacket according to care instructions and then tumble dry on low heat to reactivate the DWR. If performance is still poor, consider reapplying a DWR treatment.
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and mild soap. Lubricate with graphite from a pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant.
Ensure the hood is adjusted properly. For some models, there might be an elasticated drawcord to tighten the hood opening around the face.
Setup: This jacket requires no assembly. Simply unpack and it is ready for use.
