FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?

The Carisbrooke jacket has a water-repellent finish, making it suitable for light rain and drizzle. For heavy or prolonged rain, a fully waterproof jacket would be more appropriate.

How do I clean the jacket?

Machine wash at 30°C on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softener. Tumble dry on low or hang dry.

Can I adjust the hood fit?

Yes, the detachable hood features drawcord adjusters that allow you to tighten it for a more secure fit against the wind.

What does 'Softshell XPT' mean?

Softshell XPT refers to a type of fabric construction that offers a balance of wind resistance, water repellency, and breathability, often bonded with a backing for added comfort.

What is the breathability rating?

The jacket has a breathability rating of 15,000 g/m/24 hours, indicating good performance in allowing moisture vapor to escape.

How do I adjust the sleeves?

The sleeves can be adjusted using the snap fasteners located on the cuffs for a customizable fit.

Is this jacket warm enough for winter?

This softshell jacket provides wind and light rain protection and can be layered for warmth. For very cold winter conditions, you may need to add a warmer insulating layer underneath.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels damp inside.

This may be due to high humidity or intense physical activity. Ensure the jacket is properly zipped and consider if the conditions exceed its breathability rating. Allow the jacket to air out.

Water is soaking through the fabric.

The water-repellent finish may be diminished. Re-apply a DWR treatment according to the product instructions. Note that this jacket is water-repellent, not fully waterproof.

Hood is difficult to detach/reattach.

Ensure the fastenings are clean and aligned correctly. Check for any debris obstructing the attachment points.
