The jacket has a waterproof rating of 8000mm, meaning it offers excellent protection against rain and is suitable for moderate to heavy rainfall, keeping you dry during outdoor activities.

Softshell refers to a type of fabric that is woven rather than coated, offering a good balance of warmth, breathability, wind resistance, and water repellency. It provides more flexibility and comfort than traditional hardshell jackets, making it ideal for active use in cooler, damp conditions.

Machine wash gently on a cool cycle (e.g., 30°C) using a specialized technical outerwear cleaner. Avoid using fabric softeners, bleach, or strong detergents, as these can damage the waterproof and breathable properties. Air dry or tumble dry on a very low heat setting.

Yes, the jacket features an adjustable 'grown on' hood, which means it is permanently attached and can be cinched for a snug fit to provide better protection against wind and rain.

Yes, the jacket is equipped with two zip pockets, providing secure storage for your essentials, ensuring items won't fall out during movement.

The chin guard is a small piece of fabric at the top of the main zipper that covers the zipper pull when fully closed. This prevents the zipper from rubbing against your chin or neck, enhancing comfort.

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may need to be reactivated or re-applied. Wash the jacket using a specialized technical cleaner and tumble dry on low heat to reactivate the existing DWR. If this doesn't work, apply a DWR re-proofing spray or wash-in treatment following the product instructions.

Ensure the jacket is clean, as dirt and oils can clog the breathable membrane. Follow the washing instructions using a technical cleaner. Also, check that you are not over-layering, which can trap moisture inside.

Clean the zipper teeth with a small brush to remove any dirt or debris. If still sticking, apply a small amount of zipper lubricant (e.g., silicone-based) to the teeth and gently work the slider back and forth.

The Kristen jacket is a softshell and provides moderate insulation. For very cold temperatures, it's designed to be part of a layering system. Add an appropriate insulating mid-layer (like a fleece or down jacket) underneath for increased warmth.
