FAQs

What does MTD® 3-layer mean?

MTD® is a waterproof and breathable membrane technology. A 3-layer construction typically involves the membrane bonded between a durable outer fabric and a protective inner lining, offering comprehensive weather protection.

Is this parka warm enough for winter?

The parka is unlined and primarily designed for protection against rain and wind. For colder winter conditions, layering with a warm mid-layer, such as a fleece or insulated jacket, is recommended.

How do I adjust the hood?

The attached hood can be adjusted using the drawstring and cord stop located around the hood opening. Tighten or loosen as needed to achieve a secure fit.

What is the waterproof rating?

The parka has a waterproof rating of 15000 schmerbers, indicating a high level of protection against water penetration.

Can I wear this parka for high-intensity activities?

While the parka is breathable, it is best suited for moderate activities like walking or commuting. For very high-intensity activities where significant perspiration occurs, specialized gear might be more appropriate.

How should I care for the cotton-touch effect material?

Follow the recommended washing instructions: machine wash at 30°C on a delicate cycle, do not bleach, do not tumble dry, and iron at a low temperature. Avoid harsh chemicals and fabric softeners.

Does the parka have internal pockets?

This specific model features two external flap pockets. There are no explicitly mentioned internal pockets in the product description.

Troubleshooting

Water is penetrating the fabric.

Ensure all seams are properly thermo-welded. If wear is visible, consider professional seam sealing or consult the manufacturer. Always check that external zippers are fully closed.

The zipper is sticking.

Clean the zipper teeth gently with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper. Apply a graphite pencil to the teeth or a silicone-based lubricant specifically designed for zippers.

Reduced breathability.

The MTD® membrane may be clogged. Wash the parka according to care instructions, ensuring all detergent is rinsed out. Avoid fabric softeners, which can impede breathability.
