FAQs

What does Isotex 10000 mean?

Isotex 10000 indicates that the fabric is waterproof to a hydrostatic head of 10,000mm and breathable, allowing 10,000g/m²/24hrs of water vapor to pass through.

Can I remove the hood?

Yes, the hood is detachable and can be removed via the fastening system around the collar.

How should I clean the jacket?

Machine wash at 30°C on a gentle cycle using a mild detergent. Do not use bleach or fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low or hang dry.

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

This jacket is primarily designed for waterproofing and breathability. For very cold weather, layering with warm base and mid-layers is recommended.

What are the main materials used?

The jacket is made from 100% recycled polyester with a polyester mesh lining.

How do I maintain the waterproofing?

Wash according to care instructions and periodically reapply a DWR finish using a spray or wash-in treatment to maintain water repellency.

Are there other colors available?

Other colors and sizes may be available under different product listings. Please check the brand's range for variations.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is leaking water

Ensure all seams are sealed. If leakage persists, the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish may need to be reactivated or reapplied. Wash according to care instructions and tumble dry on low heat, or use a specialized re-waterproofing agent.

Breathability seems reduced

The jacket's pores may be blocked by dirt or residue. Clean the jacket thoroughly following the care instructions. Avoid fabric softeners, which can clog the membrane.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to use

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth. Apply a small amount of wax (like beeswax or a zipper lubricant) to the teeth to help it slide smoothly.

Hood adjustment drawstring is tangled

Carefully untangle the drawstring. If the cord lock is difficult to operate, ensure it is clean and free of debris.
