FAQs
Is the jacket fully waterproof?
Yes, the 3-layer PROOF fabric is designed to be fully waterproof and windproof.
Does it come with a warranty?
Haglofs products are covered by a manufacturer warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. Check the official Haglofs website for registration details.
How should I store the jacket?
Store it hanging in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent degradation of the fabric coatings.
Can I wear this in winter?
Yes, but as it is a shell, you must wear adequate insulating layers like down or synthetic fleece underneath to stay warm.
Are the pockets waterproof?
The pockets are water-resistant, but they are not fully submersible. Store electronics in a dry bag inside the pocket for added security.
What is the sizing like?
The jacket follows standard sizing. If you plan on layering heavily, consider your normal size as it is cut to accommodate mid-layers.
Troubleshooting
Water stops beading on the surface
The DWR finish has likely worn off. Wash the garment and apply a technical DWR re-proofer, then tumble dry on low heat.
Feeling damp inside the jacket
This is often due to internal moisture buildup. Ensure you are venting via the underarm zips or shedding layers before you become overheated.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your jacket, always verify the fit with your intended layering system—ensure there is enough room underneath for a fleece or mid-layer without restricting movement. Adjust the bottom hem and cuffs before heading out to maximize weatherproofing. For care, wash the jacket in cool water with a technical outerwear detergent to preserve the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can clog the membrane pores and reduce breathability. Tumble dry on a low setting or hang to dry away from direct heat sources to reactivate the water-repellent coating.
