Product Information

Full details

This K-Way Le Vrai Claude 3.0 Light Jacket is designed for adult males seeking reliable weather protection in a stylish, regular-fit design. Its key benefit is its water-resistant nylon ripstop material, offering a good defense against light rain.

FAQs

Is this jacket fully waterproof?

No, the K-Way Le Vrai Claude 3.0 Light Jacket is water-resistant, meaning it can repel light rain and moisture, but it is not designed to withstand heavy downpours or prolonged exposure to significant precipitation.

What is the material of the jacket?

The jacket is made from 100% Nylon ripstop fabric with a fleece lining.

How do I clean the jacket?

You can machine wash the jacket cold (30°C) on a gentle cycle. Avoid bleach and tumble dry on low heat or air dry. Do not dry clean.

Can I wear this in very cold weather?

The fleece lining provides some warmth, making it suitable for cooler temperatures. For very cold weather, it is recommended to layer additional warm clothing underneath.

Does the hood and hem cinch?

Yes, both the hood and the bottom hem feature elastic drawcords, allowing you to adjust them for a snugger fit and better protection against the elements.

Are the side pockets secure?

Yes, the two side pockets feature hidden zippers, providing secure storage for your essentials.

What does 'regular fit' mean for this jacket?

Regular fit indicates a standard cut that is neither too tight nor too loose, offering comfort and ease of movement, suitable for layering.

Troubleshooting

Zipper is stiff or stuck

Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. Apply a small amount of graphite from a pencil or a bit of wax along the zipper teeth, then try again. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper.

Water resistance seems reduced

Ensure the jacket is clean. Dirt and oils can affect water repellency. Consider reapplying a water-repellent treatment specifically designed for synthetic fabrics if performance has significantly degraded over time.

Fleece lining feels matted

Avoid high heat during washing and drying, as this can damage the fleece. Gentle washing and air drying or low-heat tumble drying are recommended to maintain the fleece's texture.
