FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?

The jacket is waterproof and designed to shield from elements, making it suitable for moderate to heavy rain. For prolonged exposure to extreme downpours, consider a hardshell jacket.

Can I wear this jacket in cold weather?

This is a softshell jacket, offering weather protection rather than significant insulation. For cold weather, layer it over insulating garments like fleece or a down jacket.

How do I know if I have the right size?

The jacket should fit comfortably over base layers or lighter mid-layers. It should allow for unrestricted movement in the shoulders and arms without being excessively baggy.

What does 'softshell' mean in this context?

A softshell jacket is typically made of flexible, breathable, and water-resistant fabric. It offers a balance of protection, comfort, and freedom of movement, often used for aerobic activities.

How often should I re-waterproof the jacket?

Re-waterproofing is recommended when you notice water no longer beads up and rolls off the fabric surface. This can vary depending on usage frequency and environmental conditions, but typically every few washes or once a year is a good guideline.

Can I machine wash the jacket?

Yes, you can machine wash the jacket on a gentle cycle at 30°C with liquid detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and close all zippers before washing.

Troubleshooting

Water is seeping through the fabric.

The water-repellent finish may have worn off. Reapply a waterproofing agent suitable for softshells, following product instructions. Ensure all zippers and seams are intact.

Jacket feels clammy or damp inside.

This could be due to internal condensation or the fabric's breathability being overwhelmed. Ensure the jacket is properly ventilated and consider if the activity level is exceeding the jacket's intended use for breathability.

Zippers are stiff or difficult to move.

Clean the zipper teeth with a small brush and a damp cloth. Apply a wax-based lubricant or a silicone zipper treatment.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent waterproof and windproof protection.
  • Comfortable and unrestricted movement due to tailored fit.
  • Lightweight and packable for easy transport.
  • Durable polyester material for long-lasting wear.
  • Suitable for a range of outdoor and urban activities.

Cons

  • May not provide sufficient warmth for very cold, freezing temperatures without additional layers.
  • As a softshell, it may be less abrasion-resistant than a hardshell in rugged environments.
  • Specific care instructions are required to maintain waterproof properties.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This jacket requires no setup. It is ready to wear straight out of the package.

Compatibility: The Jack Wolfskin Feldberg jacket is designed as a standalone outer layer or as part of a layering system. It pairs well with standard hiking trousers, jeans, or other outdoor apparel. Ensure you select the correct size (available in L, XL, M) for optimal fit and performance.

Care Instructions: To maintain the jacket's performance and longevity:

  1. Washing: Machine wash separately with liquid detergent (no fabric softener) at 30°C (85°F). Close all zippers and fasteners before washing.
  2. Drying: Tumble dry on a low-heat setting or hang dry. After drying, a short tumble on a medium-heat setting, without or with a tennis ball, reactivates the water-repellent finish (this is known as a 're-proofing run').
  3. Re-proofing: For enhanced water repellency, apply a PFC-free waterproofing agent suitable for softshells after washing and drying, following the product's instructions.
