FAQs
What does 'water-repellent' mean for this jacket?
It means the fabric has a coating that causes water to bead up and roll off the surface, protecting you from light rain or splashes. It is not waterproof and will not protect you in heavy downpours.
Is the padding suitable for very cold weather?
The jacket is insulated with recycled polyester padding, which offers warmth for mild to cool conditions. For very cold weather, it is recommended to layer additional insulating garments underneath.
How do I choose the right size?
Refer to the product's size chart for specific measurements. The XS size is designed for an adult male. Consider your chest, waist, and sleeve measurements for the best fit.
Can I wash the jacket in a washing machine?
Yes, you can machine wash the jacket at a maximum of 30°C on a gentle cycle. Avoid using bleach and do not iron.
What is the benefit of the elasticated hem and cuff?
The elasticated hem and cuffs help to create a snug fit, preventing wind from entering the jacket and keeping you warmer. The press button adjuster on the cuff allows for further customization of the fit.
Does the jacket have an internal pocket?
Based on the description, the jacket features slanted welt side pockets. It does not explicitly mention internal pockets.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper. Gently pull the fabric away from the zipper track. If it persists, apply a small amount of graphite from a pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth.
Water is not beading off the fabric as effectively.
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) treatment may have worn off. Consider reapplying a DWR treatment spray designed for outerwear. Follow the product instructions carefully for best results.
Jacket feels less insulated than expected.
Ensure the recycled polyester padding is evenly distributed and not compressed. For colder conditions, layer additional warm clothing underneath. This jacket is designed for mild to moderate temperatures.

- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting. Do not iron.
