Product Information

Full details

The Aigle Gore-Tex Parka is designed for the modern adult woman who requires a reliable, weather-resistant outer layer that does not sacrifice aesthetic appeal. It provides exceptional protection against wind and rain through advanced Gore-Tex technology, making it suitable for both rugged outdoor explorations and daily urban commuting. While it offers superior technical performance and a sleek, tailored silhouette, potential users should note that as a dedicated technical shell, it is primarily focused on elemental protection rather than extreme insulation.

FAQs

Is this parka machine washable?

Yes, but you should use a mild, technical-specific detergent and avoid fabric softeners, which can compromise the membrane's breathability.

Can I wear this in deep winter?

The parka is primarily a shell. To stay warm in deep winter, ensure you are wearing appropriate thermal layers underneath.

How should I store the parka?

Store in a cool, dry place on a wide hanger to help maintain the tailored shape of the shoulders.

Is the hood removable?

The parka is designed with a sleek silhouette; please check your specific garment tag for details on hood adjustability or detachability.

Does Gore-Tex lose its effectiveness over time?

With proper care, the membrane remains effective for years. Regular cleaning removes oils and dirt that can clog the pores of the membrane.

Troubleshooting

Water no longer beads on the surface

The DWR coating may have worn off. Apply a specialized DWR re-waterproofing spray to the outer shell and tumble dry on low heat if the garment instructions permit.

Feeling damp inside the jacket

Ensure you are not wearing non-breathable base layers. Gore-Tex works best when it can transfer moisture away from a breathable inner layer.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior waterproof and windproof capabilities
  • Highly breathable membrane for climate control
  • Sleek and professional aesthetic suitable for urban settings
  • Tailored fit that allows for comfortable movement

Cons

  • Limited to specific sizing options
  • Requires proper care to maintain membrane functionality
  • Not intended for extreme cold weather without layering

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because this is a technical garment, proper maintenance is essential to ensure the longevity of the waterproofing. We recommend using a specialized technical fabric cleaner rather than standard detergents, as harsh chemicals can strip the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating. Always refer to the internal care label for specific temperature settings when washing. For compatibility, the parka is designed to be worn over light to medium layers; consider sizing accordingly if you intend to wear thick sweaters or mid-layers underneath. Ensure all zippers are fully closed during wash cycles to prevent snagging.
