FAQs
What does 'ARED 15/15' mean?
ARED 15/15 refers to the jacket's waterproof and breathability rating. It signifies 15,000mm of waterproof protection and 15,000g/m²/24h breathability, indicating a high level of performance against rain and snow while allowing moisture vapor to escape.
How do I clean the Swarovski crystal zip pullers?
Gently wipe the crystals with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or scrubbing, as this can damage the finish of the crystals.
Is the hood detachable?
The hood is detachable and features adjusters to provide a secure and customized fit.
What is the purpose of the fixed snowskirt?
The fixed snowskirt is an elasticated band located at the waist of the jacket. It is designed to prevent snow from entering the jacket from underneath, keeping you dry and warm in deep snow conditions.
Can I wear this jacket in very cold temperatures?
Yes, the jacket features high warmth insulation and is designed for cold mountain conditions. For extremely cold weather, layering with thermal base and mid-layers is recommended.
What is the material of the jacket?
The jacket is primarily made from recycled polyester, featuring ARED 15/15 waterproof and breathable fabric.
Where is the ski pass pocket located?
The ski pass pocket is typically located on the sleeve for convenient access to lift passes.
Troubleshooting
Jacket does not feel waterproof
Ensure all zips are fully closed and seam-taped areas are intact. Check the ARED fabric for any visible damage. If the issue persists, contact customer support.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth to remove any dirt or debris. Avoid excessive force. If stiffness persists, a small amount of silicone-based lubricant can be applied to the zipper track.
Inner cuffs feel too tight
The inner cuffs are designed for a snug fit to prevent snow and cold air ingress. If they feel restrictive, ensure the main jacket sleeves are pulled down fully. The fabric may also loosen slightly with wear.
Crystal embellishments appear dull or dirty
Gently wipe the crystals with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using any harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could scratch or damage the crystals.
