FAQs
What is the waterproof rating and what does it mean?
The jacket has a waterproof rating of 5000mm. This means it can withstand 5000mm of water pressure applied to the fabric over a 24-hour period without leaking. It's suitable for moderate rain.
What is the breathability rating and how does it work?
The breathability rating is 5000mvp (moisture vapor permeability). This indicates how well the fabric allows water vapor (sweat) to pass through from the inside to the outside, helping to keep you dry and comfortable during activity.
Can this jacket be worn in cold weather?
The jacket features a padded, quilted lining for warmth. It is suitable for cool to mild weather. For very cold conditions, it is recommended to layer a warm fleece or insulated jacket underneath.
How do I clean the jacket?
Machine wash at 30°C on a gentle cycle using a small amount of liquid detergent. Avoid fabric conditioners and bleach. Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry.
What is the benefit of the two-way front zip?
The two-way zip provides flexibility. You can unzip it from the top for ventilation or from the bottom for added comfort, especially when sitting or moving your hips.
Is the hood detachable?
No, the hood is a 'grown-on' hood, meaning it is permanently attached to the jacket.
What does 'taped seams' mean?
Taped seams means that the stitching lines on the inside of the jacket are covered with a waterproof tape. This prevents water from leaking through the small holes created by the sewing needle.
Troubleshooting
Jacket no longer feels waterproof
The water-repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. Clean the jacket thoroughly and then apply a suitable re-waterproofing spray or wash-in treatment, following the product's instructions.
Jacket feels clammy or less breathable
Ensure the jacket is clean. Dirt and oils can clog the pores of the membrane. Wash according to care instructions. Avoid using fabric softener.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth and mild soap. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper. Apply a wax-based lubricant or graphite (from a pencil) to the teeth.
Hood adjustment cord is loose
Check the cord stopper mechanism. If it's not holding, the elastic cord might need replacing or the stopper mechanism may require repair.
