Product Information
Full details
The Karrimor 3 in 1 Jacket is designed for adult males seeking versatile, all-weather protection for outdoor activities and daily commutes. Its key benefit is the adaptable two-part system (waterproof shell and removable fleece) offering flexibility for changing conditions. A minor caveat is that while waterproof, it's best suited for moderate to heavy rain rather than extreme downpours.

FAQs
How do I wear the jacket in different weather conditions?
You can wear the waterproof shell on its own for rain protection, the fleece on its own for warmth, or zip them together for full protection against cold and wet weather.
What does '10K waterproof / 10K breathable' mean?
It means the fabric can withstand 10,000mm of water pressure before leaking and allows 10,000g of water vapor to pass through per square meter in 24 hours, indicating good resistance to rain and breathability.
Can I machine wash the jacket?
Yes, the jacket is machine washable. Always follow the care label instructions, typically washing on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent and avoiding fabric softeners.
How do I re-waterproof the outer shell?
You can use a spray-on or wash-in re-waterproofer designed for outdoor gear. Apply according to the product's instructions, usually after washing and before drying.
Is the hood adjustable?
Yes, the jacket features an elastic drawstring adjustable hood, allowing you to tighten it for a better fit and increased protection against wind and rain.
What material is the jacket made from?
The jacket shell is made of 100% Nylon, and the removable fleece inner is 100% Polyester.
Does this jacket come in other colours?
This specific listing is for the Green XL variant. The Karrimor 3 in 1 Jacket is available in other colours and sizes, which may be listed separately.
Troubleshooting
Water seeping through seams
Ensure the jacket has been properly re-waterproofed. If persistent, check if the taped seams are intact; minor damage can sometimes be repaired with seam sealant.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to use
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a toothbrush and mild soap. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or a graphite pencil to the teeth to improve glide. Avoid forcing the zipper.
Fleece is difficult to attach/detach
Ensure the fleece is fully unzipped and properly aligned with the shell's internal zip track before attempting to connect or disconnect. Check for any obstructions in the zipper.
Jacket lining feels sticky or degraded
This may indicate damage to the waterproof coating due to improper washing or age. Avoid using fabric softeners or bleach. If severe, the jacket's waterproof performance may be compromised.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The jacket is ready to wear out of the packaging. The fleece inner can be attached or detached using the full front zip and any internal fastening points (often loops at the cuffs and neck). Ensure the fleece is correctly aligned before zipping to avoid snagging.
Compatibility: This is a standalone garment. The fleece is designed to zip into the shell and is not intended for use with other jackets.
Care Instructions:
- Washing: Machine washable. Always follow the specific instructions on the care label. Typically, this involves washing at a low temperature (e.g., 30-40°C) with a mild detergent.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or air dry. Avoid high heat which can damage the waterproof membrane.
- Repellency: For best results, periodically re-waterproof the outer shell using a suitable fabric treatment spray or wash-in conditioner, following the product's instructions.
- General Maintenance: Keep the jacket away from open flames and high heat sources.
