FAQs
What is the primary purpose of the Josh Jacket?
The Josh Jacket is designed for daily winter use, providing lightweight warmth and protection against wind and light water with its specific insulation and shell materials.
Is the hood adjustable?
The hood is fixed but features a Lycra binding, which helps to provide a snug and protective fit around the face.
Can I wash the jacket in a washing machine?
No, the jacket should be dry cleaned only. Machine washing can damage the nylon shell and the PrimaLoft insulation.
What does 'iridescent' mean in the description?
Iridescent means the fabric has a lustrous, somewhat varied color that appears to change when viewed from different angles or under different lighting conditions.
How does PrimaLoft Rise insulation perform?
PrimaLoft Rise is engineered to provide excellent warmth-to-weight ratio, meaning it offers significant insulation without adding much bulk, and it retains thermal properties even when damp.
Are the pockets truly waterproof?
The description states the pockets are water-resistant and zippered. This means they offer good protection against light moisture, but they are not fully submersible or guaranteed waterproof under heavy rain.
What does 'ReClosed Ripstop' refer to?
ReClosed Ripstop is a type of fabric construction that uses a special weaving technique to create a pattern of square grids, making the material highly resistant to tearing and ripping. If a tear does occur, the ripstop pattern helps to prevent it from spreading.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. If it persists, check for any fabric caught in the teeth. A small amount of graphite (from a pencil) applied to the zipper teeth can help lubricate it.
Water resistance seems reduced.
The water-resistant treatment may have worn off over time. For best results, consider a professional re-waterproofing treatment suitable for nylon fabrics. Ensure the jacket is clean before treatment.
Insulation feels uneven or lumpy.
This can occasionally happen after washing or storage. Gently try to smooth out the insulation by hand. Avoid aggressive manipulation. If the issue persists after proper care, consult the care label for specific handling instructions.
