Full details
The K-Way Manuel Jacket in Green (Size S) is designed for adult males seeking reliable weather protection and comfort during mid-season wear. Its key benefit is offering both waterproof and windproof capabilities with a breathable stretch nylon shell and a soft cotton lining. A potential caveat is that while it offers weather resistance, it is intended as a mid-season layer and may not provide sufficient warmth in extreme cold.

FAQs
What is the primary material of the K-Way Manuel Jacket?
The outer shell is primarily made of 95% Nylon and 5% Elastane, providing stretch and weather resistance. The main lining is 100% Cotton.
Is this jacket suitable for cold winter weather?
This jacket is designed as a mid-season layer. While it offers windproof and waterproof protection, it may not provide sufficient insulation for very cold winter temperatures on its own.
How do I adjust the fit of the jacket?
The fit can be adjusted using the drawstring at the waist and the adjustable cuffs. The hood can also be secured for better protection.
Can I machine wash the jacket?
Yes, you can machine wash it at a maximum of 30°C on a mild process. Please refer to the 'Care Instructions' section for full details.
What is the purpose of the back ventilation cut-out?
The ventilation cut-out on the back is designed to improve airflow within the jacket, enhancing breathability and comfort during physical activity.
How many pockets does the jacket have?
The jacket features 4 front flap pockets with snap fastening for secure storage.
Does the hood detach?
The hood is folding and designed to be tucked into the collar, rather than being detachable.
Troubleshooting
Jacket does not feel waterproof after washing.
Ensure you followed the specific care instructions, especially regarding detergent and wash temperature. Avoid fabric softeners, which can impede water repellency. Consider reapplying a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment designed for technical outerwear if performance has diminished over time.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Gently try to move the zipper up and down. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a specialized zipper lubricant to the zipper teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper track.
Seams appear to be leaking during heavy rain.
While heat-taped seams offer excellent water resistance, prolonged exposure to extreme conditions may eventually allow some moisture ingress. For intense downpours, consider layering with additional waterproof gear. Ensure no damage has occurred to the seam tape.
