FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

The jacket is designed for transitional seasons and offers good protection against rain and wind. For very cold weather, layering with warm undergarments such as a fleece or insulated jacket is recommended.

How do I determine the correct size?

The jacket is described as 'True to size, Regular fit'. We recommend consulting the provided measurements: Size M has a centre back measurement of 76cm and a sleeve length from the shoulder point of 65.5cm. Compare these to your own measurements or a similar jacket you own.

Can I put this jacket in the washing machine?

Yes, you can machine wash the jacket in cold water on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softener or bleach, as these can damage the waterproof properties.

What should I do if the jacket's waterproofness seems reduced?

Over time, the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish can wear off. You can restore its performance by washing the jacket and then tumble drying it on low heat, or by applying a specific DWR re-waterproofing spray or wash-in treatment.

Are there other colors or sizes available?

This guide focuses on the Hunter Original Waterproof Jacket in Black, size L. Other sizes and potentially colors may be available from the manufacturer; please check the product listing or manufacturer's website for other variants.

What material is the jacket made of?

The jacket is crafted from Polyester, featuring welded seam construction and a full mesh body lining for breathability.

Troubleshooting

Water is seeping through the seams.

Ensure the DWR coating is intact. If it has worn off, consider reapplying a DWR treatment according to the product's instructions. Check that the storm flap is properly closed over the main zipper.

Jacket feels clammy inside.

This could be due to insufficient ventilation. Ensure the underarm eyelets are not blocked and consider opening the main zipper slightly if conditions allow. Check that you are not overheating due to excessive layering for the current temperature.

Zipper is difficult to move.

Gently try to move the zipper. If it is stuck on fabric, carefully dislodge it. You can apply a small amount of graphite from a pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth if it continues to be stiff.
