FAQs
What is the primary material of the jacket?
The jacket's external shell is made of 95% Nylon and 5% Elastane, offering stretch and weather resistance.
Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?
The jacket is designed for rainy and windy conditions. It features a soft lining for comfort but is not intended as heavy-duty cold-weather insulation.
How do I adjust the hood?
The hood is adjustable, allowing you to customize its fit for better protection against the elements. Specific adjustment points (e.g., drawstrings) are present.
Can I put this jacket in the washing machine?
Yes, you can machine wash it on a gentle cycle at a maximum of 30°C. Avoid bleach and tumble drying.
What does 'heat-taped seams' mean for the jacket's performance?
Heat-taped seams mean that the seams are sealed with tape, preventing water from seeping through the stitching, thus enhancing the jacket's waterproof capabilities.
What is the fit of this jacket?
The jacket has a slim fit and a short length, designed for a modern silhouette.
How many pockets does the jacket have?
The jacket features two zipped pockets for secure storage.
Troubleshooting
Jacket not fully waterproof after washing.
Ensure the care instructions were strictly followed, especially regarding washing temperature and the use of bleach. If the issue persists, the water-repellent treatment may need reapplication, though this is not explicitly mentioned in the product data.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to use.
Gently try to move the zipper. Ensure no fabric is caught. If it remains stiff, a small amount of graphite from a pencil rubbed on the teeth can help lubricate it.
Elasticated cuffs or hem losing elasticity.
Avoid high heat during washing and drying, as this can degrade elastic materials. Gentle washing and air drying are recommended.
