Joules Raincoat - Hooded

The Portwell raincoat is primarily designed for waterproofing and protection from rain. It features a half-body lining but is not heavily insulated, making it best suited for milder wet weather. For colder conditions, layering with warm clothing underneath is recommended.

The main outer material is a blend of 74% Cotton and 26% Nylon. The linings are made of 100% Polyester.

The waist can be adjusted using the internal toggles located on the inside of the coat. Simply pull or loosen these toggles to cinch or release the waist for a desired fit.

No, the Portwell raincoat should not be put in a tumble dryer. It is best to air dry it away from direct heat sources to maintain its waterproof properties and shape.

The hood features an adjustable storm peak and drawcords to help keep it secure and provide good coverage in windy and rainy conditions. For very strong gusts, you may need to tighten the drawcords.

Fully taped seams mean that waterproof tape is applied over all the stitch lines on the inside of the garment. This seals any tiny holes made by the needle during construction, ensuring the seams are as waterproof as the fabric itself.

Ensure the garment has been washed and dried according to the care instructions. Over time, the waterproof treatment may degrade; consider a re-waterproofing spray suitable for cotton blends.

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and mild soap. Apply a graphite pencil lead or a specific zipper lubricant to the teeth to help it glide smoothly.

Tighten the hood drawcords to secure it more firmly. Ensure the storm peak is positioned correctly.

Ensure fabric softener was not used, as this can affect the fabric. Try a gentle tumble dry on a low heat setting if the care label permits, or hang to air dry away from direct heat.
