FAQs

What type of activities is this jacket best suited for?

This jacket is ideal for outdoor activities such as walking, hiking, casual commuting, and general wear in mild to cool weather. It offers protection from wind and light rain.

Can I wear this jacket in very cold weather?

While the jacket provides wind resistance, it is lightweight. For very cold conditions, it is best used as an outer layer over insulating garments like fleece or down.

How should I prepare the jacket for custom printing?

Ensure the jacket is clean and dry. It is recommended to perform a test print on a small, inconspicuous area or a fabric swatch to determine the best print settings and ensure compatibility with your chosen printing method.

How often should I re-waterproof the jacket?

Re-waterproofing frequency depends on usage. If you notice water is no longer beading on the surface but soaking in, it's time to reapply a DWR treatment.

Is the jacket suitable for machine drying?

Yes, the jacket can be tumble dried on a low heat setting. However, air drying is often gentler on the fabric and protective treatments.

What does 'stretch and woven fabric' mean?

This indicates the fabric has elasticity (stretch) allowing for greater movement and flexibility, combined with a durable woven construction for structure and longevity.

Troubleshooting

Jacket not fully waterproof

Check if the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating needs reapplication. Ensure all seams and zippers are intact. Wash according to care instructions and consider a re-waterproofing treatment.

Breathability seems reduced

The jacket may be dirty or have residue from fabric softeners. Wash with a mild detergent without fabric softener. Ensure the inner lining is clean.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to use

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or a graphite pencil to the teeth to improve glide. Ensure the inner zip guard is not caught.

Fit is too loose around the hem

Use the internal shockcord to adjust the hem for a tighter fit, preventing drafts.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent weather protection against wind and rain.
  • Lightweight and breathable for all-day comfort.
  • Stretch fabric allows for easy movement.
  • Practical features like zip pockets and adjustable hem.
  • Ideal canvas for custom printing or embroidery.

Cons

  • May not be warm enough for extreme cold without layering.
  • Waterproofing may diminish over time with heavy use or improper care.
  • Specific printing methods may require testing for best results.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This jacket requires no assembly; it is ready to wear out of the package.

Compatibility: The jacket is designed as outerwear and is compatible with most standard clothing layers underneath. For printing, compatibility will depend on the chosen printing method (e.g., vinyl, sublimation, screen printing) and the specific inks or materials used. Always test on a swatch or an inconspicuous area if possible.

Care Instructions:

  • Washing: Machine wash at 30°C (86°F) on a gentle cycle.
  • Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can reduce the performance of the waterproof and breathable membranes.
  • Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang dry. Do not wring.
  • Ironing: Do not iron. If absolutely necessary, iron on a very low setting on the reverse side, away from any printed areas.
  • Maintenance: For best results, re-waterproof the jacket periodically using a suitable spray or wash-in product, following the product's instructions.
