Product Information
Full details
The Aigle MTD 2-Layer Long Parka is designed for adult men who need reliable protection against the elements without sacrificing mobility. Featuring a technical waterproof, windproof, and breathable membrane, this parka excels in both coastal environments and urban settings. While it offers excellent versatility for daily wear, users should note that as a 2-layer system, it is designed for layering and may require additional mid-layer insulation in extreme sub-zero temperatures.

FAQs
Is this parka machine washable?
Yes, but use a gentle cycle with a mild, technical detergent and avoid fabric softeners.
Can I wear this in deep winter?
The parka is designed for wind and rain protection. For deep winter, it is recommended to wear an insulating mid-layer like a fleece or down jacket underneath.
Does the hood detach?
No, the parka features an integral hood designed for seamless protection against the elements.
Is the fabric noisy when moving?
The nylon material is designed to be quiet and supple, avoiding the loud crinkling sounds common in cheaper rain gear.
What does MTD stand for?
MTD stands for Marine Technical Design, a specialized membrane developed by Aigle for maximum weather protection.
Troubleshooting
Water begins to soak into the outer fabric
The DWR coating has likely worn off. Wash the garment and apply a technical waterproofing spray meant for outdoor apparel.
Zipper feels stiff or catches
Check the track for debris or fabric caught in the teeth. Gently clean with a soft brush and apply a small amount of zipper lubricant if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Aigle parka, always follow the care label instructions provided inside the garment. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can degrade the waterproof MTD membrane and breathable properties. Wash in cold water on a gentle cycle, and if possible, use a technical gear detergent. To maintain the waterproof finish, you may need to reapply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray after several deep cleanings. When storing, hang the coat on a wide-shouldered hanger to maintain its ergonomic structure.
