FAQs
What does a 15,000mm hydrostatic head mean?
A 15,000mm hydrostatic head rating indicates a high level of waterproofness. It means the fabric can withstand the pressure of a 15-meter column of water before water starts to seep through.
Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?
This is a softshell jacket designed for protection against wind and rain. While it can be layered over insulating clothing for warmth, it is not a heavily insulated winter coat on its own.
How do I wash the jacket?
The jacket can be machine washed at 30 degrees. Avoid using bleach, ironing, or dry cleaning. Tumble dry on a low heat setting.
Can I wear this jacket for intense physical activity?
Yes, the articulated sleeves and flexible softshell material are designed to allow for a good range of motion, making it suitable for activities like hiking and trekking.
What are the pocket features?
The jacket has three zipped pockets, providing secure storage for personal items.
What is Softshell XPT?
Softshell XPT is a fabric technology that provides a combination of waterproof, windproof, and breathable protection while remaining flexible and comfortable.
Troubleshooting
Waterproofing seems reduced
Ensure the jacket is clean. Follow the care instructions for washing and drying. For best results, re-apply a suitable waterproofing treatment after several washes.
Zipper is stiff or stuck
Gently try to move the zipper. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth. Avoid forcing the zipper.
Fit is too tight or too loose
Adjust the shockcord hem and stretch-bound cuffs for a snugger fit. If the overall fit is incorrect, check the sizing guide and consider an exchange if a different size is available.
