FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for extreme winter weather?

It is designed for cold, wet conditions with 120 g/m² insulation. It works well as a mid-to-outer layer in standard cold, but may require additional thermal layers in sub-zero alpine temperatures.

Can I put this jacket in the tumble dryer?

It is best to air dry naturally to preserve the integrity of the taped seams and synthetic insulation.

What does ISOTEX 20000 mean?

It indicates a high-performance waterproof and breathable rating, meaning the fabric can withstand significant water pressure while allowing moisture vapor to escape.

Does the hood detach?

No, the hood is a fixed, adjustable technical hood integrated for maximum weather protection.

Is the fabric noisy when moving?

Due to the waterproof membrane and stretch construction, there is some minor sound, but it is designed to be quieter than traditional rigid waterproof shells.

Troubleshooting

Water is soaking into the outer fabric instead of beading off.

The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating has worn off; apply a garment-safe re-proofer spray.

Hood keeps falling over eyes during movement.

Adjust the rear and side toggles on the hood to tighten the fit and use the wire peak to mold the shape for clear sightlines.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-performance waterproof rating for heavy rain
  • Stretch fabric allows for active movement
  • Excellent warmth-to-weight ratio with THERMOGUARD
  • Wire-peaked hood provides superior protection and visibility

Cons

  • Padded construction can be bulkier than shell jackets
  • Requires proper care to maintain the water-repellent treatment
  • Limited to colder, wetter climates

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To maximize the lifespan of your jacket, ensure you adjust the drawcord hem and cuffs properly to create an effective seal against wind. For cleaning, machine wash on a gentle cycle using mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners as they can strip the long-lasting water repellent (DWR) coating. Periodically re-treat the outer fabric with a DWR spray if you notice water no longer 'beading' off the surface. Always hang the jacket to dry naturally, avoiding direct heat sources like radiators, which can damage the synthetic insulation.
