Product Information

Full details

The Nimbus Crescent Padded Jacket is an ideal choice for adults seeking a versatile, lightweight outer layer that balances environmental responsibility with functional design. Its primary benefit lies in its Bionic Finish technology, which provides essential water-repellent and windproof protection against unpredictable weather. However, users should note that as a lightweight padded jacket, it is best suited for layering in mild to cool conditions rather than extreme arctic environments.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is the jacket fully waterproof?

The jacket is water-repellent and windproof due to its Bionic Finish technology, which makes it ideal for light rain and windy conditions, but it is not classified as fully waterproof for heavy, sustained rainfall.

Does it contain down feathers?

No, the Nimbus Crescent Padded Jacket uses a synthetic quilted design with polyester, making it an animal-friendly alternative.

Are the materials recycled?

Yes, the jacket is designed with recycled materials, reflecting the brand's commitment to sustainability.

How should I wash this jacket?

We recommend a gentle machine wash at a low temperature to protect the integrity of the water-repellent finish.

Can this be worn under a larger coat?

Yes, its lightweight profile allows it to function effectively as a mid-layer under larger parkas or winter coats.

Troubleshooting

Water repellency appears to be wearing off

The Bionic Finish can be reactivated by gentle heat from a tumble dryer on a low setting or by using a re-proofing spray designed for technical outdoor gear.

Zip feels stiff or sticks

Ensure the fabric is not caught in the track. You can lightly lubricate the YKK teeth with a dry graphite pencil or specialized zipper lubricant.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Nimbus Crescent Padded Jacket, follow these maintenance guidelines:

  1. Cleaning: Wash at a low temperature to preserve the Bionic Finish water-repellent coating. Avoid harsh detergents or fabric softeners.
  2. Drying: Air dry the jacket naturally. Avoid high-heat tumble drying as it may degrade the synthetic insulating materials.
  3. Storage: Hang the jacket on a sturdy hanger to maintain its shape, especially when stored for long periods during warmer months.
  4. Compatibility: The jacket's design is neutral and fits well with most casual or semi-casual attire, including denim and chinos.
