FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?
The Isotex 10000 fabric provides good waterproofing, making it suitable for moderate rain and showers. For prolonged exposure to very heavy rain, a jacket with a higher waterproof rating might be more appropriate.
How do I clean the jacket?
Machine wash warm (40°C) with a mild detergent. Do not use bleach, fabric softeners, or iron. Tumble dry on low heat. Avoid dry cleaning.
What does Isotex 10000 mean?
Isotex 10000 signifies that the fabric is waterproof to a hydrostatic head of 10000mm and breathable with a moisture vapor permeability of 10000g/m²/24hrs. This ensures it can withstand moderate rain and allows body moisture to escape.
Can I add my own logo to the jacket?
Yes, the jacket features a concealed zip entrance in the lining specifically designed for easy embroidery, allowing for custom branding.
What type of insulation does it have?
The jacket features Thermo-Guard insulation with a 140 GSM (grams per square meter) wadding weight in the body, providing good thermal retention.
Is the hood detachable?
The hood is concealed and features adjusters, but it is not detachable.
What are the pocket details?
It includes a chest pocket with a technical waterproof zip, two zipped lower pockets for hand warming or storage, and an internal pocket.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels damp inside.
Ensure the jacket is not overly layered underneath and check that ventilation points are not blocked. If the issue persists, the fabric's breathability may be compromised. Clean the jacket according to care instructions and consider reapplying a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish.
Water is leaking through seams.
Check if the seams are still properly taped. If tape appears damaged, professional repair may be needed. For minor issues, ensure the jacket is clean and has been treated with a re-waterproofing agent.
Zips are stiff or difficult to use.
Clean the zips with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or a graphite pencil to the teeth of the zip. Avoid using waxes or oils that can attract dirt.
