FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

The jacket is windproof and waterproof but unlined. It is best suited for mild to cool conditions or as an outer layer over warmer insulation for colder weather.

How do I clean the reflective tape?

The reflective tape can be cleaned during normal machine washing. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the reflective surface.

Can the hood be completely removed?

Yes, the hood is detachable and adjustable, allowing you to remove it entirely when not needed.

What does 'Ret 20,0' breathability mean?

Ret is a measure of thermal resistance. A lower Ret value indicates higher breathability. Ret 20.0 is considered good for general use, allowing moisture vapor to escape.

Are the seams taped for waterproofing?

No, this jacket features a waterproof and windproof fabric but does not have taped seams. While it offers good protection, it may not be suitable for prolonged exposure to heavy downpours.

What material is the jacket made from?

The jacket is made from a 3-layer softshell fabric consisting of 92% polyester and 8% elastane, which provides stretch, water resistance, and wind protection.

Does this jacket have an inner lining?

No, the jacket is unlined, contributing to its lightweight and flexible nature.

Troubleshooting

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper teeth. Gently pull the fabric away while operating the zipper. If necessary, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or wax to the zipper teeth.

Reduced water repellency over time

The water-repellent finish may need refreshing. Use a suitable fabric re-proofer spray according to product instructions. Ensure the jacket is clean before applying.

Hood adjustment not holding

Check that the drawstring is securely through the toggles and that the toggles are functioning correctly. Ensure the drawstring is not frayed.
