The Craghoppers Compresslite IX Hooded Jacket is designed for active adults who need a reliable, space-saving insulating layer for changing weather conditions. Featuring high-loft ThermoPro fill and a sustainable H2OShield water-repellent finish, it offers excellent warmth-to-weight performance for hiking or everyday travel. While the synthetic insulation provides reliable heat retention, potential buyers should note that this jacket is best suited as a mid-layer or light outer shell rather than a heavy-duty winter parka.

No, it is water-repellent. It is designed to handle light rain and mist, but it will eventually soak through in heavy or prolonged rain.
The jacket is designed to stow into its own internal stuff sack. Simply fold or stuff the jacket into the pouch provided.
It is suitable for light, dry snow, but for deep, wet, or heavy snowfall, you should wear a waterproof outer shell over it.
Machine wash in cold water on a gentle cycle. Do not use bleach or fabric softeners.
The hood features elasticated herringbone binding which provides a secure, self-adjusting fit without the need for manual drawcords.
No, it uses ThermoPro, which is a synthetic fiber designed to mimic the thermal properties and loft of natural down.
Synthetic insulation can compress over time. Ensure you store the jacket hanging up rather than in the stuff sack for long periods. A gentle tumble dry on low heat can often help 're-fluff' the fibers.
The H2OShield finish may have worn off due to dirt or friction. Wash the jacket to remove oils and dirt, then apply a new DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray treatment.
To maximize the lifespan of your jacket, always shake it out after removing it from its stuff sack to help the synthetic insulation recover its loft. Because the jacket uses a specialized water-repellent finish, avoid using heavy detergents or fabric softeners, as these can strip the coating. Machine wash on a cool, gentle cycle and allow to air dry. To restore the water-repellency after heavy wear, you may apply a spray-on treatment specifically designed for technical outerwear once the jacket is clean and dry. This garment is designed to be worn as a stand-alone piece in mild weather or under a waterproof shell during harsher winter conditions.
