FAQs
Is this jacket fully waterproof?
No, it is water-repellent. It is designed to shed light rain and moisture but will eventually soak through in heavy, sustained rainfall.
What is the primary material?
The jacket is constructed from high-performance polyester.
Can I put this in the tumble dryer?
It is recommended to hang dry to maintain the fabric properties and elastic elements.
Is the hood removable?
No, the hood is integrated into the jacket design for a sleek, protective fit.
Does it have ventilation?
Yes, it features mesh inserts under the arms to facilitate airflow and heat management.
Is this suitable for gym workouts?
While designed primarily for outdoor running, its breathable design makes it suitable for cool-down periods in the gym or outdoor warm-ups.
Troubleshooting
Water begins soaking into the fabric after multiple washes.
The durable water repellent (DWR) coating may need to be refreshed using a specialized spray-on re-proofer available at outdoor retail stores.
Sweat accumulation inside the jacket.
Ensure you are layering appropriately; avoid wearing heavy cotton underneath, as it holds moisture. Stick to synthetic or merino wool moisture-wicking base layers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
The jacket is ready to wear immediately out of the packaging. To maintain the integrity of the water-repellent coating and the fabric quality, follow these care instructions: machine wash cold on a gentle cycle, preferably with technical gear detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can strip the water-repellent properties of the fabric. Hang dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources to preserve the elastic components and technical fibers.
