FAQs

Is the Altura Nightvision Typhoon Jacket fully waterproof?

Yes, it is constructed from waterproof fabric and features a C0 DWR finish to provide full protection from the rain.

Can I remove the hood?

Yes, the hood is detachable, allowing you to tailor your coverage to the specific weather conditions.

What does C0 DWR mean?

C0 DWR refers to a Durable Water Repellent coating that is free from harmful fluorocarbons, making it a more environmentally sustainable option.

How should I wash this jacket?

Use a gentle cycle with a technical gear wash detergent. Avoid softeners and bleach to preserve the fabric's performance.

Does this jacket have reflective properties?

Yes, it includes strategically placed reflective panels designed to maximize visibility to other road users in low-light conditions.

Troubleshooting

Water is soaking into the fabric rather than beading off

The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating has worn off. Wash the garment and apply a technical re-proofing spray to restore the water repellency.

Feeling damp inside despite the jacket being waterproof

This is likely condensation buildup from sweat. Open the sleeve vents earlier in your ride to improve airflow and moisture transport.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent high-visibility features for safety in the dark
  • Environmentally friendly design using recycled fabrics
  • Versatile, relaxed fit allows for comfortable layering
  • Highly practical storage with secure zipped pockets
  • Effective temperature management via sleeve vents

Cons

  • Relaxed fit may feel baggy to those preferring aerodynamic racing cuts
  • Requires proper maintenance to keep DWR coating effective
  • Detachable hood may add bulk when stored

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your jacket continues to perform, proper care is essential. When washing, use a mild liquid detergent and wash at a low temperature to protect the DWR coating. Avoid fabric softeners as they can clog the pores of the breathable membrane. If you notice water no longer beading on the surface, consider using a re-proofing spray designed for technical outdoor gear. For optimal compatibility, consider the size of your base layers; since this is a relaxed-fit garment, you should find it easy to wear over a variety of mid-layers without restriction.
