FAQs

What is the primary function of this jacket?

The primary function is to provide waterproof and breathable protection against the elements, suitable for outdoor activities and daily wear.

Is this jacket suitable for extreme cold weather?

This jacket is an outer shell. For extreme cold, you will need to layer appropriate insulating mid-layers underneath.

How do I clean the jacket?

Machine wash at 40°C with a non-biological detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low or air dry.

What does 'breathable fabric' mean?

Breathable fabric allows water vapor (sweat) to escape from the inside of the jacket to the outside, helping to keep you dry and comfortable during physical activity.

Can I adjust the hood?

Yes, the hood is adjustable, allowing you to customize the fit for better protection against wind and rain.

Are the pockets waterproof?

The pockets are typically designed to be water-resistant and secured with zippers to protect your belongings from light moisture, but they are not fully submersible.

How should I re-proof the jacket?

Use a dedicated fabric re-proofer spray or wash-in treatment, following the manufacturer's instructions carefully. This helps to restore the water-repellent finish on the outer fabric.

Troubleshooting

Water is not beading off the fabric.

The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment may have worn off. Follow the care instructions for re-proofing the jacket.

Jacket feels clammy inside.

Ensure all ventilation points (e.g., main zip, underarm zips if present) are open to allow for adequate airflow. The jacket might be saturated if the DWR has failed, or you may be overheating.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth and allow to dry. A small amount of wax or silicone lubricant can help, applied carefully to the teeth.
