Product Information

Full details

The Didriksons Erika 3 Parka is designed for adult women who need a reliable, high-performance outer layer for harsh winter conditions. It excels by providing a 10,000 mm water column rating and synthetic thermal insulation, ensuring you remain warm and dry during extended outdoor activities. One caveat to keep in mind is that the parka has a longer fit which, while offering superior coverage, may feel restrictive for high-intensity sports requiring maximum leg mobility.

FAQs

Is the fur trim removable?

Yes, the synthetic fur trim is detachable, allowing you to customize the look or remove it for easier cleaning.

Can I wear this in extreme sub-zero temperatures?

The parka is well-insulated, but for extreme cold, we recommend wearing thermal base layers to maximize heat retention.

How do I measure the water column rating?

A 10,000 mm rating means the fabric can withstand a 10-meter column of water pressing against it before any liquid penetrates, indicating high-level waterproofing.

Is the hood adjustable?

Yes, the parka features a two-way adjustable hood, allowing you to change both the volume and the opening size for a secure fit.

What is the best way to clean the parka?

Machine wash on a gentle cycle at 40 degrees Celsius using a mild liquid detergent. Remove the synthetic fur trim first.

Troubleshooting

Water is soaking into the fabric surface instead of beading off.

The DWR coating may need refreshing. Tumble dry the clean garment on low heat to reactivate, or reapply a technical spray-on water-repellent treatment.

The zipper feels stiff or sticks.

Clean any debris or grit from the zipper teeth using a soft brush, then ensure the fabric placket is pulled away from the teeth when zipping.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent wind and waterproof protection
  • Highly breathable fabric for comfort during activity
  • Adjustable features allow for a tailored fit
  • Longer length provides extra warmth and coverage
  • Includes reflective details for increased visibility

Cons

  • Synthetic fur trim may hold moisture if not removed in heavy sleet
  • Longer cut may limit stride length for fast-paced movement
  • Polyester material requires specific care to maintain water-repellency

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Erika 3 Parka, proper maintenance is essential. Always close all zippers and buttons before washing to prevent snagging or hardware damage. Use a gentle cycle with mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners, as these can strip the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating from the polyester shell. If you notice water no longer beads off the surface, tumble dry the garment on low heat to reactivate the water-repellent treatment. Always remove the synthetic fur trim before cleaning the parka to maintain the fibers' texture and shape. Store the jacket in a cool, dry place on a wide-shouldered hanger to maintain its structure throughout the off-season.
