FAQs

How do I clean my Altura Icon Rocket Packable Jacket?

Machine wash cold with mild detergent, avoid fabric softeners, and hang to dry or tumble dry on low.

Is the jacket waterproof?

The jacket is water-resistant, thanks to its DWR coating, but not fully waterproof. It provides protection against light rain and showers.

What is the benefit of the packable design?

The packable design allows you to easily fold and store the jacket in its own pocket, making it convenient for travel and varying weather conditions.

What kind of fit does the jacket have?

The jacket has a semi-fitted cut, designed to contour the body without being overly tight, allowing freedom of movement.

What materials is the jacket made of?

The jacket is made of 88% Polyamide and 12% Polyurethane.

How do I maintain the water repellency of the jacket?

Reapply a Durable Water Repellent (DWR) treatment after washing to maintain its water-resistant properties.

Troubleshooting

Water is penetrating the jacket.

Check the DWR coating. Reapply a DWR treatment if water is no longer beading on the surface.

Jacket feels less windproof than before.

Inspect the fabric for damage. Ensure all zippers and closures are fully engaged.

Reflective prints appear faded.

Avoid excessive exposure to direct sunlight and aggressive scrubbing during washing.
