Product Information

Full details

This Minoti waterproof jacket is designed for adult males seeking reliable wet weather protection. Its key benefit is its packaway design, making it exceptionally convenient for travel and everyday use. A potential consideration is its focused design on water resistance, which may impact breathability in very humid conditions. The jacket offers a black colourway with subtle printed detailing, zip fastening, a stowable hood, and two zipped pockets, all constructed from breathable fabric.

FAQs

How do I fold the jacket into its pouch?

The jacket is designed to be folded into itself, often utilizing an internal pocket or a designated section to create a compact pouch. Fold the jacket neatly, starting with the sleeves, and then roll or fold the body until it fits into the integrated pouch.

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

This jacket is primarily designed for waterproof protection. While it offers some insulation due to its construction, it is best suited for mild to cool conditions or when layered over warmer clothing for colder temperatures.

Can I wash this jacket in a washing machine?

Yes, you can machine wash the jacket at 30°C (86°F) using a mild detergent. It is important not to use fabric softeners or bleach, as these can damage the fabric's properties.

What does 'packaway' mean?

'Packaway' means the jacket can be easily folded and stored into a small, compact size, often into its own built-in pouch, making it convenient for carrying when not in use.

How do I ensure the zipper stays protected?

The jacket features a concealed zip fastening under a protective pleat. Ensure this pleat is correctly positioned over the zipper after fastening to minimize moisture ingress and protect the zipper mechanism.

What are the printed details on the jacket?

The jacket features subtle printed detailing visible on the chest and sleeve areas, adding a visual element to the black colourway.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is leaking.

Ensure all zips are fully closed and the storm flap is correctly positioned. Check for any damage to the fabric or seams. Consider re-applying a waterproofing treatment if the water repellency has diminished.

Zipper is stiff or stuck.

Gently try to move the zipper. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth. Avoid forcing the zipper.

Jacket feels less waterproof.

The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish may have worn off. Clean the jacket thoroughly and apply a new DWR treatment according to the product instructions.

Hood is difficult to stow.

Ensure the hood is completely dry and neatly folded before attempting to place it inside the collar. Check for any obstructions within the collar compartment.
