FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?

The jacket is waterproof to 8000mm, which is suitable for moderate to heavy rain. For prolonged exposure in torrential downpours, additional rain gear might be beneficial.

Can I wear this jacket in very cold weather?

This is a lightweight softshell jacket. For cold weather, it is best used as a layer combined with warmer clothing underneath.

How do I clean the jacket?

Machine wash at 30°C with similar colors. Do not bleach, iron, or dry clean. Tumble dry on low heat.

What does 'breathable to 1000mvp' mean?

MVP stands for Moisture Vapor Transmission. A rating of 1000mvp means that 1000 grams of moisture vapor can pass through the fabric per square meter per 24 hours, indicating good breathability.

Can I get my company logo added to this jacket?

Yes, this jacket is well-suited for company uniforms and the application of logos.

What is the material of the jacket?

The fabric is 94% polyester and 6% spandex bonded with a microfleece lining, weighing 320gsm.

Are there other color options available?

Yes, this jacket is also available in Black.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels damp inside

Ensure the jacket is zipped up fully and cuffs are adjusted. If significant moisture persists, check breathability rating and consider layering for very high exertion activities.

Water is not beading on the surface

The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish may have worn off over time. Consider reapplying a DWR treatment specifically designed for outdoor apparel.

Zipper is sticking

Gently try to clear any fabric caught in the zipper. If the zipper is clean, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or a silicone-based lubricant to the teeth.
