Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this jacket windproof?

Yes, the ARED 15/30 fabric is highly wind-resistant, providing an effective shield against cold mountain gusts.

Can I wear this for casual winter use?

Absolutely. While designed for skiing, the insulated construction makes it perfect for general winter use in snowy or windy climates.

Does it have a hood?

Yes, the jacket features an integrated hood with critically taped seams for added protection.

How do I choose the right size?

The jacket has a relaxed fit. Stick to your usual size if you plan to wear thick mid-layers, or consider sizing down if you prefer a closer fit.

What is ARED 15/30 fabric?

It is a specialized fabric technology that offers 15,000mm waterproofing and 30,000g/m2/24hr breathability, making it ideal for high-performance winter sports.

Troubleshooting

Water is soaking into the fabric instead of beading off

The DWR coating has likely worn off. Wash the jacket with a technical cleaner and re-apply a DWR waterproofing spray.

Feeling damp inside despite waterproof fabric

Ensure your base layers are synthetic or wool. Cotton base layers absorb sweat and stay damp against your skin, making you feel cold.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior waterproof rating (15,000mm) keeps you dry in heavy snow
  • Highly breathable to manage sweat during active skiing
  • Comfortable relaxed fit allows for layering underneath
  • Effective thermal insulation keeps core temperature stable
  • Reinforced seam protection where it matters most

Cons

  • Relaxed fit may be too loose for those preferring slim-fit gear
  • Polyester material requires careful cleaning to maintain water resistance
  • Less compact than down-filled jackets for packing

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This jacket is designed as a standalone shell with integrated insulation. For maximum performance, layer with moisture-wicking base layers rather than cotton.

To clean, machine wash at 30 degrees Celsius using a technical detergent designed for waterproof gear. Avoid using fabric softeners or bleaching agents, as these can strip the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating from the outer fabric. Always hang-dry or tumble dry on a low, cool setting, and re-apply a DWR spray periodically if you notice water no longer beads off the surface.
