Product Information

Full details

The Didriksons Eris Parka is designed for women who need a reliable, insulated outer layer for harsh winter conditions. It excels at balancing warmth, waterproof protection, and breathability, making it ideal for both city commuting and outdoor winter activities. While its durable ripstop fabric offers excellent longevity, the parka is notably heavier than lightweight shells, which is a common trade-off for its robust, full-coverage weather protection.

FAQs

Is the hood removable?

No, the hood is fixed but fully adjustable to ensure a secure fit against the elements.

Can this jacket be tumble dried?

Please check the care label on your specific garment, as drying recommendations can vary, but generally, air-drying is preferred to preserve the technical coatings.

Is the insulation animal-friendly?

Yes, the Eris Parka uses 100% recycled synthetic fibers, making it completely vegan.

How does the sizing run?

The parka features an A-shaped regular fit. It is designed to allow for layering underneath without being overly baggy.

Is the fabric noisy when moving?

The ripstop fabric is durable and robust, but it is designed to be relatively quiet and comfortable for daily wear.

What does PFC-free mean?

It means the water-repellent finish is manufactured without using perfluorinated chemicals, which are harmful to the environment.

Troubleshooting

Water no longer beads on the surface of the fabric

The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating has likely worn off. Clean the garment and apply a textile-safe DWR spray treatment.

Front zipper feels stiff or sticks

Clean the zipper tracks with a soft brush to remove dust or grit, then lubricate the teeth with a graphite pencil or specialized zipper lubricant.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent insulation against freezing temperatures
  • Fully waterproof and windproof with taped seams
  • Adjustable features allow for a personalized, flattering fit
  • Eco-conscious design using recycled materials
  • High-quality, durable ripstop outer shell

Cons

  • Heavier weight compared to performance shells
  • Regular-fit silhouette may be bulky for some layering styles
  • Requires more maintenance due to specialized waterproof coatings

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To maintain the integrity of the waterproof membrane, always follow the care label instructions provided inside the garment. It is generally recommended to wash the parka on a gentle cycle with a mild, liquid detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can strip the water-repellent coating.

Regularly check the front zipper to ensure it is clear of debris or fabric snags. For the exterior fabric, if the water-repellent finish starts to bead less effectively, consider using a specialized re-waterproofing spray for synthetic garments. Store the parka in a cool, dry place on a wide-shouldered hanger to maintain the shape of the silhouette.
