Product Information
Full details
The Peter Storm Blisco III Hooded Jacket is designed for adults seeking an affordable and warm layer for everyday activities. Its key benefit is providing reliable insulation against the cold, making it ideal for commutes, walks, or casual outdoor use. A potential caveat is its water-repellency, which is treated and not fully waterproof. This jacket features synthetic insulation, a water-repellent shell, a grown-on hood, hand pockets, and an adjustable hem, offering practical warmth and protection.

FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?
The jacket has a water-repellent finish, meaning it can shed light rain or drizzle. It is not fully waterproof and is not designed for prolonged exposure to heavy rainfall.
What type of insulation does it use?
It uses 160g of synthetic insulation, which provides warmth and retains some insulating properties even if it gets damp.
How should I clean the jacket?
Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with similar colours. Use a mild detergent and avoid bleach or fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low or air dry.
Can I adjust the fit of the jacket?
Yes, the jacket features an adjustable drawcord hem that allows you to cinch it for a closer fit and to keep drafts out.
What activities is this jacket best suited for?
It is ideal for everyday activities in cool or cold weather, such as commuting, walking, casual outdoor use, and as a layering piece.
Does the hood offer adjustability?
The hood itself is grown-on, but it features elasticated binding around the edge to help it stay in place and provide a snug fit.
What are the pocket features?
The jacket has two hand pockets designed to keep your hands warm or store small personal items.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels too tight or loose
Adjust the drawcord at the hem for a customized fit. If the overall fit is incorrect, consider exchanging for a different size.
Reduced water repellency
The DWR treatment may have worn off. Consider reapplying a PFC-free DWR treatment suitable for synthetic fabrics.
Zipper is sticking
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a brush and apply a small amount of wax or silicone lubricant to help it glide smoothly.
Insulation feels uneven
Gently shake or pat the jacket to redistribute the synthetic insulation within the baffles. Avoid aggressive washing or drying.
