FAQs

What does 'WeatherTite' mean?

WeatherTite is Karrimor's technology that ensures the jacket is waterproof and provides protection against the elements.

Is this jacket suitable for extreme cold weather?

The jacket provides waterproof and windproof protection, but it is not heavily insulated. For very cold conditions, layering warm clothing underneath is recommended.

How do I wash the Karrimor Sierra Waterproof Jacket?

Always refer to the care label inside your jacket. Generally, machine wash on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent and avoid fabric softener. Air dry or tumble dry on low.

Can I wear a backpack over this jacket?

Yes, the jacket is designed to be worn as an outer layer and is suitable for wearing with a backpack. The durable polyester material can withstand normal backpack wear.

What is the waterproof rating?

The jacket has a 10,000 mm waterproof rating, offering good protection against rain.

How many pockets does it have?

It features two zip-fastened pockets for secure storage of essentials.

What material is the jacket made of?

The jacket is made from 100% Polyester.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer fully waterproof.

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) treatment may have worn off. Clean the jacket according to care instructions and consider reapplying a DWR treatment product specifically designed for waterproof outerwear.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Ensure no debris is caught in the teeth. Lubricate with a graphite pencil tip or a specialized zipper lubricant if needed.

Jacket feels clammy inside, even when not raining.

This could indicate reduced breathability. Ensure the mesh lining is clean and free from dirt or sweat buildup. Check that the jacket's vents (if any) are not obstructed.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent waterproof protection for various outdoor activities.
  • Breathable design prevents clamminess during exertion.
  • Good wind resistance due to the hood and cuffs.
  • Secure storage for personal items.
  • Lightweight and packable for convenience.

Cons

  • May not provide sufficient insulation for very cold temperatures.
  • Primarily designed for waterproofing and wind resistance, not extreme weather.
  • Care label instructions must be followed for longevity.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: This jacket requires no setup. It is ready to wear straight out of the packaging.

Compatibility: The Karrimor Sierra WeatherTite Waterproof Jacket is designed as an outer layer for adult males. It can be worn over base layers and mid-layers for added warmth in cooler conditions. Its unisex design might appeal to others, though sizing is specific to men's apparel.

Care: To maintain the jacket's WeatherTite performance and longevity, always follow the instructions on the care label. Generally, this involves machine washing on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent and avoiding fabric softeners, which can degrade waterproof coatings. Tumble dry on low or air dry away from direct heat. Reapplying a DWR treatment periodically can help restore its water-repellent properties.
