FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for extreme cold?
The jacket features thermal fabric and high-warmth insulation, making it suitable for cold weather skiing. For extreme conditions, layering with a warm base and mid-layer is recommended.
How do I clean the goggle lens wipe cloth?
The lens wipe cloth is integrated into one of the internal mesh pockets. It can be carefully removed and washed with the jacket following the care instructions. Ensure it is fully dry before returning it to the pocket.
What does 'PFC, PFOA, PFOS free' mean for the water repellent finish?
This indicates that the water repellent treatment used on the jacket does not contain perfluorinated chemicals (PFCs), which are considered harmful to the environment. It offers a more eco-conscious approach to water resistance.
Can I wear this jacket for activities other than skiing?
While optimized for skiing with features like a snow skirt and ski pass pocket, the jacket's waterproof and breathable qualities make it suitable for other winter outdoor activities such as snowboarding or general cold-weather hiking.
How do I adjust the hood?
The hood is grown-on and features adjusters. You can tighten or loosen the drawcords around the face and back of the hood to achieve a secure and comfortable fit that stays in place even in windy conditions.
What is the warranty period for this jacket?
Warranty information is typically provided by the retailer or manufacturer at the time of purchase. Please refer to your purchase receipt or the Dare 2b official website for specific warranty details.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels damp inside
Ensure the jacket is properly zipped up, including the chin guard. Check that the ventilation (if applicable) is open. If the issue persists, the breathability may be compromised; follow care instructions to clean and re-proof the fabric.
Water is leaking through seams
Verify that all critical seams are properly taped. If damage is visible, it may require professional repair. Ensure the garment has been washed and re-proofed correctly.
Zippers are stiff or difficult to use
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth and mild soap, then dry thoroughly. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or wax to the zipper teeth to improve smoothness.
Snow is entering the jacket
Ensure the fixed snow skirt is correctly positioned and fastened. Check that the cuffs and hem are adjusted snugly to create a seal.
