Product Information
Full details
The Didriksons Stefan Waterproof Jacket is a versatile, all-weather outer layer designed for men who navigate both urban environments and rural landscapes. Its core benefit is high-performance weather protection, combining a 10,000mm water column rating with 120 g/m insulation to keep you dry and warm in harsh conditions. While it offers excellent durability and storage, the jacket’s robust construction and padding mean it is better suited for cooler climates than for intense physical activity in warmer weather.

FAQs
Is the hood fully removable?
Yes, the hood is both adjustable and fully detachable based on your needs.
Can I use this jacket for hiking in the mountains?
It is suitable for casual hiking, but for high-exertion, technical alpine climbing, you may prefer a more breathable, non-insulated shell.
What does the 10,000mm water column mean?
It means the fabric can withstand the pressure of a 10,000mm high column of water without letting moisture pass through, indicating high water resistance.
Are the sleeves adjustable?
Yes, the cuffs are adjustable to help seal in warmth and keep water from running down your sleeves.
Is the jacket machine washable?
Yes, follow the care label instructions and use a gentle cycle with a technical detergent.
Troubleshooting
Water appears to be soaking into the outer fabric
The DWR finish may be worn out. Re-apply a spray-on or wash-in water repellent treatment to restore the beading effect.
Condensation building up inside the jacket
Reduce your under-layers. While breathable, the insulation may trap sweat if you are performing very high-intensity activity.
Zipper feels stiff or difficult to close
Clean the zipper tracks of dirt or debris and apply a small amount of zipper lubricant or a candle-wax rub to the teeth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of the Stefan jacket, avoid frequent machine washing. When it becomes soiled, use a gentle cycle with mild detergent. Do not use fabric softeners, as they can degrade the technical waterproof membrane.
Always ensure the jacket is completely dry before storing it in a dark, cool place. If the water-repellency begins to fade, you can revitalize the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish by using a standard technical wash-in re-proofer. The jacket is designed for standard layering; in extremely cold temperatures, it accommodates a mid-layer fleece or thin wool sweater comfortably beneath the XL sizing.
