RECCO is an avalanche rescue system. The jacket contains a passive reflector that can be detected by RECCO detectors used by ski patrols and mountain rescue teams, aiding in locating individuals buried in an avalanche.
Machine wash on a gentle cycle using a technical wash. Do not use fabric softener or bleach. Tumble dry on a low heat to help maintain the DWR finish.
Yes, both the hood and the snowskirt are detachable, allowing you to customize the jacket's features based on weather conditions and your preferences.
DWR stands for Durable Water Repellent. It is a coating applied to the outer fabric that causes water to bead up and roll off, helping to keep you dry in wet conditions.
Yes, the fake down insulation provides significant warmth, making it suitable for cold mountain conditions. For extreme cold, layering with a thermal base and mid-layer is recommended.
Regular cleaning with a technical wash and periodic reapplication of a DWR treatment will help maintain its waterproofing. Ensure the jacket is properly dried after washing and treatment.
The shell is made from a blend of Acrylic, Elastane, Modacrylic, and Polyester. The lining is 100% Polyester.
Clean the jacket with a technical wash and reapply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish according to the product's instructions. Ensure the jacket is tumble dried on low heat after treatment.
Clean the zipper teeth with a small brush and apply a silicone-based lubricant or wax specifically designed for zippers. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper track.
Ensure all vents and the hem are properly adjusted to seal in warmth. Wear appropriate base and mid-layers. Check that the DWR finish is still effective, as a compromised outer layer can lead to a feeling of coldness.
Gently brush the faux fur with a soft-bristled brush or comb. If significantly matted, hand wash the trim gently with mild soap and water, rinse thoroughly, and allow to air dry completely before reattaching.
Setup: This jacket requires no setup. Ensure all zippers are functional and the hood and snowskirt are attached or detached as desired before use.
Compatibility: While designed for skiing, it is compatible with standard ski pants and accessories. The RECCO technology does not require batteries or active pairing but relies on RECCO detectors used by rescue teams.
