Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this jacket warm enough for winter?

This is a technical shell jacket. While it provides excellent wind and rain protection, it is not insulated. We recommend layering with a fleece or mid-layer for warmth in cold weather.

Can I put this jacket in the dryer?

Yes, but check the care label first. Typically, a low-heat tumble dry can help reactivate the durable water-repellent finish.

How do I determine the right size?

The jacket comes in various age-specific sizes ranging from 5-6 years up to 14 years. Refer to the manufacturer's size guide for measurements.

Is the hood removable?

The Switch Out II features an integrated hood designed for maximum protection, so it is not detachable.

What does ARED 15/15 mean?

It is a performance rating indicating the fabric can withstand 15,000mm of water pressure while allowing 15,000g of water vapor to escape per square meter over 24 hours.

Troubleshooting

Water begins to soak into the fabric instead of beading off

The DWR finish has likely worn off. Wash the jacket and re-apply a technical DWR spray to restore water repellency.

Zippers feel stiff or difficult to close

Ensure no fabric is caught in the teeth and clean any dirt or grit out of the zip track using a soft brush.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High waterproof and breathability rating
  • Comprehensive pocket system for storage
  • Reflective detailing for improved safety
  • Adjustable cuffs and hem for a perfect fit
  • Built-in UPF 50+ sun protection

Cons

  • Primarily designed as a shell; requires insulation layers for extreme cold
  • Polyester material may need careful laundering to maintain DWR finish

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of the jacket, always follow the care label instructions. Wash in cool water with a detergent suitable for technical waterproof clothing. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can clog the pores of the breathable membrane and degrade the DWR finish. After washing, tumble dry on a low setting if recommended by the care label, or line dry in a shaded area. Regularly inspect the zip pullers and adjustable toggles to ensure they remain free of debris. When storing, ensure the jacket is completely dry to prevent mildew growth on the seams.
