Product Information
Full details
The Trespass Persephone Softshell Jacket is designed for adult women who enjoy active outdoor pursuits like hiking and walking, offering a blend of flexibility and weather protection. Its key benefit lies in the combination of a stretchy polyester build and a TPU membrane that delivers 3000mm water resistance and effective windproofing. One caveat to keep in mind is that while it is highly functional for light-to-moderate conditions, the 3000mm rating means it is not intended for heavy, prolonged downpours.

FAQs
Is this jacket fully waterproof?
It is water-resistant with a 3000mm rating, meaning it provides great protection in light rain, but it is not intended for heavy, prolonged exposure to wet weather.
Can I remove the hood?
Yes, the jacket features a convenient zip-off hood that can be detached when not needed.
Is the fabric noisy like some other waterproof jackets?
No, the softshell material is designed to be quiet and flexible compared to traditional hardshell waterproof jackets.
Does it offer enough insulation for winter?
It is best used as an outer layer in mild to cool conditions. For very cold winter days, it is recommended to wear a thermal base layer or fleece underneath.
How should I clean the jacket?
Machine wash on a cool, gentle cycle with mild soap. Avoid fabric conditioners and tumble drying if possible to maintain the membrane's integrity.
Troubleshooting
Water begins to soak through the fabric
The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating may have worn off; apply a technical water-repellent spray designed for softshell garments.
Zipper feels stiff or sticks
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush to remove any dirt or grit, then apply a small amount of zipper lubricant or a candle to help it glide.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your jacket in peak condition, always check the internal care label before washing. Generally, softshell jackets with membranes should be washed on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent—avoid using fabric softeners as they can strip away water-resistant properties. Air drying is highly recommended to preserve the shape and the effectiveness of the TPU layer. When fitting, ensure you choose a size that allows for light layering underneath, as the jacket is designed for a performance fit that moves with your body.
