FAQs

Is the hood large enough to fit a climbing helmet?

Yes, the hood is fully adjustable and specifically designed to be compatible with standard climbing and mountaineering helmets.

Can I use this jacket for skiing?

While it provides excellent waterproof protection, it is designed primarily for hiking and scrambling. It may lack the insulation of a dedicated ski jacket.

How should I wash this jacket?

Use a technical cleaner on a gentle cycle. Avoid fabric softeners or detergents with biological enzymes.

What is the hydrostatic head rating?

The Hydroshell Elite fabric features a hydrostatic head of 19,000mm, making it highly resistant to heavy rain.

Does it have internal pockets?

Yes, it features internal bellows pockets for easy storage and an additional internal zipped pocket for valuables.

Are the pockets accessible while wearing a pack?

The hand pockets are specifically raised to remain accessible while wearing a backpack or climbing harness.

Troubleshooting

Water is no longer beading on the surface of the fabric.

The DWR coating has likely worn off. Wash the garment with a technical cleaner and apply a spray-on or wash-in DWR treatment.

Feeling damp inside despite the jacket being waterproof.

This is often due to moisture buildup from perspiration. Ensure you are venting via the underarm zips during high-intensity activity and layer appropriately.

Stiff or sticky zipper performance.

Check for debris or dirt in the zipper teeth. Clean gently with a soft brush and consider applying a dedicated zipper lubricant.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional waterproof and breathable performance
  • Ergonomic fit allows for high mobility
  • Smart pocket placement for pack/harness compatibility
  • Durable construction with high strength-to-weight ratio

Cons

  • Technical aesthetic may be too sporty for casual urban use
  • Requires proper garment care to maintain DWR effectiveness
  • Specific fit profile designed for active layering

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Hydroshell Elite fabric remains functional, proper care is essential. Always fasten all zippers and adjusters before washing. Machine wash on a gentle cycle using a technical fabric cleaner; avoid biological detergents or fabric softeners, as these can strip the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating. Periodically re-apply a DWR treatment if water stops beading on the surface. Store the jacket in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use for extended periods to protect the membrane integrity.
