FAQs
What is Therma-FIT ADV technology?
Therma-FIT ADV is Nike's advanced system that combines heat-regulating technology with specific features to keep you warm and dry during athletic activities in cold weather.
How does the repel down insulation work?
The down fill is treated with a water-repellent finish, meaning it resists moisture and maintains its insulating loft even when exposed to light rain or damp conditions.
Can I wear this vest in heavy rain?
The vest has a water-repellent finish suitable for light rain or drizzle. For heavy rain, it is recommended to wear a waterproof outer shell over the vest.
Is this vest suitable for extreme cold?
While the vest provides significant warmth, it is designed for athletic performance. For extreme cold, layering with a warm base layer and potentially an insulated jacket is recommended.
How do I wash this vest?
Refer to the specific care label on the product. Generally, down items should be washed gently, possibly on a delicate cycle with mild detergent, and dried on low heat, often with dryer balls to restore loft. Avoid bleach.
What does 'ADV' in Therma-FIT ADV mean?
ADV stands for 'Advanced', indicating that this version of Therma-FIT technology incorporates more sophisticated features and materials for enhanced performance.
What are the benefits of the dark green color?
The dark green color is a common athletic hue that offers good visibility in various conditions and is less likely to show dirt from outdoor use compared to lighter colors.
Troubleshooting
Vest feels less warm than expected
Ensure the down insulation has not become compressed or wet. If damp, follow care instructions for drying thoroughly. Consider layering with a base layer for added warmth in colder conditions.
Water repellency seems reduced
The DWR finish may wear off over time. Consider using a technical wash-in waterproofing treatment designed for outdoor apparel to restore its water-repellent properties. Always follow product label instructions.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to use
Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper slider.
