FAQs
What is CLIMAWARM technology?
CLIMAWARM is adidas's technology designed to keep you warm and dry in cold conditions. It works by trapping body heat and wicking away sweat, ensuring optimal thermal regulation during physical activity.
Can this jacket be worn in heavy rain?
While the jacket offers some resistance, it is not fully waterproof. For heavy rain, it is recommended to wear it as an insulating layer under a separate waterproof outer shell.
Is the insulation bulky?
No, the jacket features lightweight insulation designed to provide warmth without adding significant bulk or weight, allowing for freedom of movement.
What is the fit of this jacket?
The jacket has a regular fit, designed to be comfortable and allow for layering without being overly tight or excessively loose.
How do I wash the jacket?
Machine wash cold (30°C) on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry. Do not iron.
Is this jacket suitable for all seasons?
It is best suited for cooler or transitional seasons (spring, autumn, mild winter). For very cold conditions, it is intended to be layered with other garments.
What does 'recycled polyester' mean?
This means the jacket is made from polyester fibers that have been reclaimed from post-consumer waste, contributing to a more sustainable production process.
Troubleshooting
Jacket not providing enough warmth
Ensure the jacket is zipped up fully and consider layering with a base layer for enhanced insulation. Check if the insulation has compressed over time; gentle tumble drying can sometimes help restore loft.
Feeling damp or clammy during activity
This indicates the CLIMAWARM technology may be struggling to keep up with high perspiration. Ensure you are wearing breathable base layers and consider opening the jacket slightly for ventilation if possible.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to use
Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it remains stiff, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth. Avoid forcing the zipper.
