Polo Ralph Lauren Packable Quilted Jacket - Black - M

No, this jacket is designed for light weather protection. The nylon shell offers some resistance to light moisture, but it is not waterproof and is not intended for heavy rain.

The jacket is designed for a regular fit and is true to size. Refer to the provided dimensions (Sleeve length: 63 cm, Length: 61 cm, Underarm width: 50 cm, Shoulder width: 40 cm for size S) and compare them to your own measurements for the best fit.

While the polyester padding provides warmth, this is a lightweight jacket. For very cold conditions, it is best used as a mid-layer over warmer clothing.

The jacket is designed to be highly packable. You can fold it neatly or simply stuff it into its own pocket or a separate small bag for easy storage and transport.

The shell is made of 100% nylon, providing a durable and somewhat weather-resistant outer surface. The filling is 100% polyester, which is used for its insulating properties to keep you warm.

For long-term storage, it's best to hang the jacket to allow the filling to maintain its loft. If storing packed, periodically take it out to allow it to air and regain its shape.

Gently pull the zipper tab while slightly wiggling the fabric around the teeth. If still stuck, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or wax to the zipper teeth.

Ensure the jacket is fully dry. If lumps persist in the polyester filling, tumble dry on a low heat setting with a few clean tennis balls to help redistribute the padding evenly.

The water-resistant treatment may have worn off. Consider applying a fabric-specific water repellent spray suitable for nylon outerwear. Follow the product's instructions carefully.

Be mindful of sharp objects or rough surfaces. Minor snags may be pushed to the underside of the fabric. For larger tears, professional repair or patching may be necessary.
