FAQs
Is the Dare 2b Revive II waterproof?
The Dare 2b Revive II features a warm-backed, quick-drying fabric, making it suitable for managing light moisture and perspiration. However, it is not explicitly designed as a waterproof garment. For protection against rain or heavy snow, it should be worn as a mid-layer under a waterproof outer shell.
What is Ilus Core technology?
Ilus Core is Dare 2b's proprietary fabric technology designed for rapid moisture wicking. It efficiently draws sweat away from your skin and spreads it across the fabric surface, allowing for quick evaporation and keeping you dry and comfortable during physical exertion.
Can I wear this jacket as an outer layer?
Yes, in mild, dry conditions, the Dare 2b Revive II can be worn as an effective outer layer. It provides warmth and protection from light breezes. For colder, windy, or wet weather, its optimal performance is achieved when worn as a mid-layer within a comprehensive layering system.
How do I choose the correct size?
Info needed: [Please refer to the detailed size chart available on the product page or the official Dare 2b website. Measure your chest and arm length to find the best fit.]
Is the hood adjustable?
The Dare 2b Revive II features a 'grown on hood,' which means it is an integrated part of the jacket's design. This type of hood typically offers a snug, comfortable fit without additional adjustability features.
What activities is this garment most suitable for?
This versatile garment is specifically designed for a range of outdoor activities including skiing, hiking, and trekking. Its blend of warmth, stretch, and quick-drying properties makes it an excellent choice for dynamic sports in varying conditions.
Troubleshooting
Garment feels damp or isn't drying quickly enough after activity.
Ensure you are wearing a suitable moisture-wicking base layer underneath. While the Ilus Core fabric is quick-drying, proper layering enhances overall moisture management. Also, check that you are not using fabric softener during washing, as it can hinder the fabric's wicking properties.
Zippers feel stiff or are difficult to operate.
Gently rub a graphite pencil along the zipper teeth. The graphite acts as a lubricant and can help the zipper slide more smoothly. Avoid forcing the zipper.
Fabric shows signs of pilling (small balls of fiber on the surface).
Pilling can occur from friction during wear or washing. Use a fabric shaver or a lint brush to carefully remove the pills without damaging the garment. Washing inside out can also help reduce pilling.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
The Dare 2b Revive II is designed for immediate use. Simply wear it as a primary layer or integrate it into your layering system.
Compatibility
- Layering: This garment functions perfectly as a mid-layer. Pair it with a moisture-wicking base layer underneath for optimal sweat management and a waterproof/windproof outer shell for protection against the elements.
- Activities: Highly compatible with gear for skiing, hiking, and trekking due to its focus on warmth, breathability, and freedom of movement.
Care
Proper care will extend the life and performance of your Revive II jacket:
- Washing: Machine wash cold with similar colors. Avoid hot water, which can damage the fabric's stretch and quick-drying properties.
- Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid bleach or harsh chemicals.
- Fabric Softeners: Do not use fabric softeners as they can clog the fabric fibers, reducing its wicking and quick-drying capabilities.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or, preferably, hang dry in a well-ventilated area. High heat can damage the recycled stretch fabric.
- Ironing: Do not iron.
