FAQs
What is the RAPTOR FLEX fabric?
RAPTOR FLEX is a durable softshell fabric made of 88% recycled nylon and 12% elastane, providing wind resistance, breathability, and stretch.
What is the Octa fleece lining?
The Octa fleece lining is a lightweight and quick-drying 100% recycled polyester that provides warmth and moisture management.
Is the jacket waterproof?
The jacket is water-resistant thanks to its PFC-Free DWR coating, but it is not fully waterproof. It performs best in dry, windy conditions.
How do I wash the jacket?
Machine wash in cold water (30°C) with a mild detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners.
How do I dry the jacket?
Line dry or tumble dry on a low setting. Avoid high heat to preserve the DWR coating.
What is DWR?
DWR stands for Durable Water Repellent. It is a coating applied to the fabric that causes water to bead up and roll off the surface.
How do I maintain the DWR coating?
Wash the jacket according to the care instructions. If the water stops beading, re-proof the jacket with a DWR treatment.
Troubleshooting
Reduced Wind Resistance
Re-proof the jacket with a PFC-Free DWR treatment.
Loss of Breathability
Ensure the jacket is clean from dirt and grime, and re-proof if necessary.
