FAQs

What is the main benefit of the Ared 10000 fabric?

Ared 10000 fabric offers a high level of waterproofing, breathability, and thermal insulation, keeping you dry, comfortable, and warm in various weather conditions.

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

Yes, the jacket features Iloft Ecofill insulation and high warmth properties, making it suitable for cold weather. The design also includes features like inner knitted cuffs and a stormflap to seal out cold air.

How do I know which size to order?

Can I wear this jacket in heavy rain?

How should I clean this jacket?

Machine wash at 30°C with a mild detergent. Avoid bleach, do not iron, and do not dry clean. Tumble dry on a low heat setting. Avoid using fabric softeners.

What does 'longline' mean for this jacket?

Are the materials used sustainable?

Troubleshooting

Water repellency seems reduced.

The water-repellent finish may need reapplication. Follow the care instructions to wash the jacket, then use a reproofing spray or wash-in treatment specifically designed for waterproof apparel. Ensure the garment is completely dry afterwards.

Jacket feels less warm than expected.

Check that all zippers and stormflaps are fully closed to prevent drafts. Ensure the inner knitted cuffs are snug against the wrists. If the jacket has been washed, ensure the insulation is evenly distributed after drying.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to use.

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth to remove any dirt or debris. Apply a small amount of wax or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth. Move the zipper up and down several times to distribute the lubricant.
