Product Information
Full details
The HOKA SkyFlow Wind Jacket is designed for trail runners and outdoor enthusiasts who require a versatile, lightweight layer to handle unpredictable weather. Its primary benefit is its extreme packability and adaptability, featuring built-in elastic hand bands for secure carrying and a scuba-style hood for added protection, though users should note it is a minimalist shell designed for wind and light water resistance rather than heavy-duty rain protection.

FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
The SkyFlow Wind Jacket is water-resistant, meaning it handles light mist or drizzle well, but it is not a fully waterproof rain jacket.
How do I use the elastic hand bands?
The jacket includes built-in elastic straps that allow you to slide your hand through, holding the packed or folded jacket securely while running.
Can I machine wash this jacket?
Yes, it is recommended to machine wash on a cold, gentle cycle with mild detergent.
Is the fit true to size?
The jacket is designed with a streamlined, athletic fit; if you prefer to wear thick mid-layers underneath, you may want to consider sizing up.
What happens if I snag the jacket on a branch?
While built for trail life, it is made of lightweight material; avoid heavy friction against sharp objects to prevent tearing.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels less water-resistant over time
The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating may need to be refreshed with a technical spray-on water repellent treatment.
Difficulty packing the jacket into its pocket
Ensure the jacket is folded loosely rather than stuffed, which helps fit it more efficiently into the integrated storage pocket.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of the jacket, avoid using harsh detergents or bleach when washing. Machine wash on a cold, gentle cycle and hang dry whenever possible to maintain the integrity of the water-resistant finish. For storage, ensure the jacket is completely dry before packing it into its own pocket to prevent mildew or odor buildup. The jacket is compatible with most standard hydration vests and can be layered over base-layer tech tees for optimal moisture management.
