FAQs

Is this jacket waterproof?

No, the jacket is water-resistant due to its DWR finish, meaning it can repel light rain and snow. It is not designed for heavy downpours or prolonged exposure to wet conditions.

What is the main benefit of using recycled materials?

Using recycled polyester reduces the reliance on virgin resources, lowers energy consumption in production, and helps divert waste from landfills, contributing to a more sustainable manufacturing process.

How do I know if I need to reapply the DWR treatment?

If water no longer beads up on the surface of the fabric and instead soaks in, it's time to reapply the DWR treatment.

Can I wear this jacket in cold weather?

The jacket is lightweight and best suited for mild to cool weather. For colder temperatures, it is recommended to layer it over a warm mid-layer, such as a fleece or insulated jacket.

What kind of activities is this jacket suitable for?

It is ideal for hiking, walking, camping, cycling, and general outdoor activities in mild to cool conditions, especially when there is a risk of light rain or wind.

How do I adjust the hood?

The hood has a drawstring that can be pulled to tighten it around the face, helping to keep it in place and improve protection from the elements.

What is the purpose of the chin guard?

The chin guard is a small fabric flap at the top of the zipper designed to prevent the zipper slider from irritating or chafing your chin.

Troubleshooting

Water repellency is reduced.

The DWR finish may have worn off. Re-apply a suitable DWR treatment following the product's instructions.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Ensure the fabric around the zipper is clear. Gently try to work the zipper up and down. Apply a small amount of wax (like a candle or lip balm) to the zipper teeth to help it glide smoothly.

Jacket feels less breathable.

Check if the jacket's internal material is soiled or if the DWR finish is clogged. Wash the jacket according to care instructions. If the issue persists, consider a specific technical fabric cleaner.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: This jacket requires no assembly. Simply unpack and wear.

Compatibility: Designed as outerwear for adult males. It can be layered over base layers and mid-layers depending on the weather conditions. Its general fit makes it compatible with most outdoor trousers and footwear.

Care Instructions: To maintain the jacket's performance and longevity:

  1. Washing: Machine wash at 30°C (86°F) on a gentle cycle. Use a small amount of liquid detergent. Avoid using powder detergent, bleach, or fabric softeners, as these can damage the fabric and its water-repellent properties.
  2. Rinsing: Ensure the jacket is thoroughly rinsed to remove all detergent residue.
  3. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang to dry away from direct sunlight or heat sources. Avoid ironing.
  4. Re-proofing: Periodically, typically after several washes, you may need to re-apply a DWR treatment to restore water-repellency. Use a spray-on or wash-in re-proofer suitable for technical outdoor clothing, following the product's instructions.
