Karrimor Urban Waterproof Jacket - Blue

10k waterproofing means the fabric can withstand 10,000mm of water pressure over a 24-hour period before water penetrates. 10k breathability means the fabric allows 10,000 grams of water vapor per square meter to pass through over 24 hours, keeping you dry from the inside out.

The Karrimor Urban Waterproof Jacket provides excellent rain and wind protection but is not insulated for warmth. For winter use, it's recommended to wear warm layers underneath, such as a fleece or thermal base layer, to stay comfortable in colder temperatures.

To fold away the hood, simply roll or fold it neatly and tuck it back into the collar compartment. Ensure it is flat to avoid bulk and for a comfortable fit around the neck.

Yes, the jacket can be machine washed. Always refer to the care label inside the jacket for specific instructions, typically advising a cold wash (30°C) with a technical outerwear detergent and avoiding fabric softeners.

This jacket is ideal for everyday urban wear, commuting, walking, light hiking, and other outdoor activities where reliable waterproof and breathable protection is needed without extreme insulation.

Yes, the Karrimor Urban Waterproof Jacket is available in various color families, including Blue, Green, Grey, and Black, allowing you to choose the best style for your preference.

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) coating might need re-activating or reapplying. Wash the jacket according to care instructions, and if water still soaks in rather than beading up, apply a DWR restoration product.

Ensure you are not overdressing underneath. The 10k breathability helps, but excessive layers can still trap moisture. Also, check that the mesh lining is clean and not obstructed. Adjusting the cuffs for more airflow can also help.

Clean the zipper teeth with a small brush and warm, soapy water. Lubricate the zipper with a specialized zipper lubricant or a small amount of graphite from a pencil. Avoid pulling forcefully.

Ensure the hood is fully extended and positioned correctly. While it's a foldaway design for convenience, it might offer less robust adjustment than a fixed, technical hood. Wearing a close-fitting cap underneath can provide extra stability.
