Product Information
Full details
This Trailberg Triathlon Padded Jacket is designed for adult males seeking robust protection against cold weather during high-output activities. Its key benefit lies in its ability to provide targeted warmth and wind resistance with a technical edge, ensuring comfort without compromising performance. A potential caveat for some users might be the specific fit, as the model is 6'0" with a 41" chest and wears a size M; it's advisable to check measurements for the XXL size. Key features include water-resistant fabric, polysynthetic fill for warmth, adjustable hood and full-zip fastening, ribbed trims for shape retention, and secure zip-up side pockets, all constructed from durable polyester with a TPU coating for enhanced wind resistance.

FAQs
What is the primary insulation material?
The jacket uses warm hollowfibre insulation, a type of synthetic fill.
Is this jacket waterproof?
The jacket is made from water-resistant fabric and has a TPU-coated shell for enhanced wind resistance, but it is not fully waterproof. It is suitable for light rain or snow.
How do I adjust the hood?
The hood features reflective bungee toggles at the front edge, which can be tightened or loosened to adjust the fit around the face.
Can I wear this in very cold temperatures?
Yes, the jacket is engineered for high-output cold weather days and provides targeted warmth. For extremely cold conditions, layering with additional thermal base or mid-layers is recommended.
What does 'XXL' correspond to?
XXL is a standard large size for men's apparel. For precise measurements, refer to Trailberg's official sizing chart, as fit can vary.
Are the reflective elements durable?
The reflective bungee toggles and logos are designed to last, but their reflectivity may diminish over time with extensive washing and wear. Follow care instructions to maintain their integrity.
What is the purpose of the thumbhole cuffs?
Thumbhole cuffs help to keep the sleeves in place, prevent drafts from entering the sleeves, and provide an extra layer of warmth for the hands.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is difficult to move
Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper. Apply a small amount of graphite pencil lead or wax to the zipper teeth to lubricate.
Reduced warmth after washing
Ensure the jacket is completely dry. Synthetic insulation can clump when wet and regain loft as it dries. Check care label for any specific washing instructions that may have been missed.
Jacket feels stiff
This can be due to the TPU coating. Ensure you are following the recommended washing and drying instructions, avoiding high heat which can degrade the coating.
Thumbholes feel tight
The thumbhole cuffs are designed for a snug fit to prevent drafts. If they feel excessively tight, consider if the size of the jacket is appropriate. Ensure the fabric is not stretched out of shape.
