Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this jacket truly waterproof?

It is water-resistant up to 5000 mm, meaning it will keep you dry in light to moderate rain, but it is not intended for submersion or torrential, prolonged downpours.

Can I iron this jacket?

It is generally recommended to avoid ironing this garment to protect the technical fabric and the internal breathable membrane.

What is the best way to clean it?

Machine wash at 40 degrees Celsius without fabric softeners and tumble dry on a low heat setting.

Can this jacket be used for corporate branding?

Yes, the left chest area is specifically designed to allow for easy access for embroidery or screen printing applications.

Is the hood included?

This specific model features a high collar with a neck protector but does not include a hood.

Does it provide enough warmth for winter?

The microfleece lining provides good warmth for mild to cool temperatures, but it should be layered with a sweater or thermal base layer for freezing conditions.

Troubleshooting

Water repellency seems to be decreasing

Ensure no fabric softener was used in the wash, as this ruins the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) properties; consider re-treating with a technical garment spray.

Zipper feels stiff or hard to operate

Check the zipper track for debris or fabric fibers and gently clean; if persistent, apply a small amount of dry lubricant specifically for zippers.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High level of wind and water resistance for daily use
  • Breathable material prevents overheating during activity
  • Soft bonded microfleece lining offers excellent insulation
  • Professional, clean aesthetic suitable for both work and casual wear
  • Adjustable components ensure a personalized fit

Cons

  • Not intended for heavy, continuous downpours
  • Requires specific laundry care to maintain fabric performance
  • Material may feel slightly heavy compared to ultra-light windbreakers

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To maintain the jacket's performance, follow these care instructions: wash the garment at 40 degrees Celsius using a mild detergent. Do not use fabric softeners, as they can clog the pores of the breathable membrane and compromise the water-resistant coating. The jacket can be tumble dried on a low-temperature setting. For businesses or groups, the large left chest pocket provides an ideal, accessible location for embroidery or screen printing. Ensure all zippers are closed before washing to prevent snagging and to protect the internal hardware.
