Product Information

Full details

This Nike Packable Jacket is designed for adult males seeking versatile protection from the elements during outdoor activities. Its key benefit is providing water-repellent and UV-protective coverage in a lightweight, packable design. A potential caveat is that while it protects covered areas from UV rays, uncovered areas may still require sunscreen.

FAQs

How do I pack the jacket into its pocket?

Lay the jacket flat, smooth out any major wrinkles, and begin folding it inwards. Start by folding the sleeves across the body, then fold the body in half or thirds, working towards the integrated pocket. Once the jacket is a compact bundle, carefully stuff it into the pocket and zip it closed.

Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?

This jacket is designed with water-repellent fabric, making it suitable for light rain or drizzle. For heavy downpours, a fully waterproof jacket would provide better protection.

How does the UV protection work?

The fabric is treated to block a significant portion of UVA and UVB rays. However, this protection only applies to the areas of your body covered by the jacket. It is recommended to use sunscreen on any exposed skin.

What are the materials used in this jacket?

The jacket is primarily made from 93% Polyester and 7% Elastane, offering a blend of durability, stretch, and water repellency. Some variations might use Nylon.

Can I wear this jacket in cold weather?

This is a lightweight jacket designed more for protection against wind, rain, and sun. For cold weather, it can be used as an outer layer over warmer insulating clothing.

How do I ensure the reflective details remain effective?

Avoid harsh scrubbing or abrasive cleaners directly on the reflective elements. Standard machine washing and drying on low heat should preserve their reflectivity.

What sizes are available?

This product guide focuses on the 'L' size. However, this jacket model is typically available in a range of sizes including S, M, XL, and XXL, as well as different colorways.

Troubleshooting

Jacket not repelling water effectively

The water-repellent treatment may have worn off over time. Consider applying a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) refresher spray designed for technical apparel.

Zipper is difficult to use

Ensure the fabric is clear of the zipper track. Gently pull the zipper while slightly angling it. A small amount of graphite pencil rubbed on the teeth can help lubrication.

Reduced breathability

Check the back vent and front chevron for any obstructions. Ensure the jacket is clean, as dirt and oils can clog the fabric's pores.

Difficulty packing into pocket

Lay the jacket flat, smooth out wrinkles, and fold it systematically inwards towards the pocket. Start by tucking the sleeves, then fold the body.
