FAQs

What does MTD® 3-layer mean?

MTD® 3-layer refers to a fabric construction where a waterproof and breathable membrane is sandwiched between an outer protective layer and an inner lining. This construction provides excellent weather resistance while allowing perspiration vapor to escape.

Is this parka warm enough for winter?

The parka is unlined and designed primarily for protection against rain and wind. For colder winter conditions, it is recommended to layer warm clothing underneath.

How do I maintain the waterproofness of the parka?

Regularly clean the parka according to the care label, avoiding fabric softeners. Consider using a technical wash and re-applying a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment periodically to maintain its water-repellent properties.

What is the waterproof rating in millimeters?

The parka has a waterproof rating of 15000 Schmerbers, which is equivalent to 15000mm (millimeters) of water pressure.

Can I machine wash the parka?

Yes, you can typically machine wash the parka on a gentle cycle, but always refer to the specific care instructions on the garment's label for the best results.

What is the origin of manufacture?

The product's manufacturing (weaving, dyeing, printing, tailoring) originates from China.

Does the hood have a drawstring?

Yes, the attached hood features a drawstring with adjustment cords and stoppers for a secure and personalized fit.

Troubleshooting

Water seeping through seams.

Ensure all heat-sealed finishes are intact. If seams appear compromised, consider professional seam sealing or check warranty information.

Reduced breathability or feeling clammy.

Clean the garment according to care instructions. Residue on the fabric can impede breathability. Ensure the garment is not worn over heavy, non-breathable layers.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to use.

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a brush. Apply a small amount of wax (like beeswax or a zipper lubricant) to the teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper.

Hood adjustment cord is frayed or damaged.

Contact customer support for replacement parts or visit a tailor for repair.
