FAQs

What type of weather is this jacket best suited for?

This jacket is ideal for light rain, windy conditions, and protection from UV rays during moderate temperatures. It is not designed for heavy downpours or extreme cold.

How do I pack the jacket?

The jacket can be folded and stowed away into a hidden inside pocket. Once folded, it becomes compact and easy to carry.

Does the jacket offer full sun protection?

The jacket provides UVA and UVB protection for the areas it covers. However, it is still recommended to use sunscreen on any uncovered skin, such as the face, neck, and hands.

How should I clean the jacket to maintain its features?

Machine wash cold with like colors, use a mild detergent, and tumble dry low or hang dry. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners to preserve water repellency and the integrity of the fabric.

Is there a way to carry the jacket easily when not wearing it?

Yes, the jacket features a shoulder strap that allows for easy transport when you're on the move and don't need to wear it.

What inspired the chevron design on the jacket?

The chevron design lines on the front are inspired by the original Nike Windrunner tracksuit jacket from 1978.

Can this jacket be worn for activities other than running?

While optimized for running, its features like water repellency, UV protection, and packability make it suitable for other outdoor activities such as hiking, cycling, or casual wear in variable weather.

Troubleshooting

Water repellency is decreasing.

Wash the jacket using a mild detergent and tumble dry on low heat to reactivate the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can impede water repellency.

Jacket feels clammy or too warm.

Ensure the ventilation zipper at the back is open to allow for maximum airflow. If conditions are very warm, consider wearing lighter layers underneath or storing the jacket until temperatures cool.

Zipper is stuck.

Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it's caught on fabric, carefully pull the fabric away from the zipper teeth. A small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or wax can sometimes help lubricate a stiff zipper.

Reflective Swoosh is peeling.

Avoid ironing directly on the reflective logo. If peeling occurs, discontinue direct heat application. Gentle hand washing and air drying are recommended for longevity of reflective elements.
