FAQs
Is this windbreaker completely waterproof?
No, the Under Armour Stretch Woven Windbreaker features UA Storm technology, which provides water-repellent properties. This means it will repel light rain and moisture, but it is not designed to be fully waterproof for heavy downpours.
Can I use fabric softener when washing this jacket?
No, it is strongly advised not to use fabric softeners. Fabric softeners can clog the fabric's pores and diminish its breathability and water-repellent finish.
What activities is this windbreaker best suited for?
This windbreaker is ideal for various outdoor activities such as running, hiking, training, and general casual wear in windy or lightly damp conditions. Its lightweight and stretchy design supports superior mobility.
Does this windbreaker provide warmth?
While it offers protection from wind chill, this windbreaker is primarily designed for wind and water repellency and breathability. It is not insulated for significant warmth in very cold temperatures, but it can be layered over warmer clothing.
How do I ensure the water repellency lasts?
To maintain the water-repellent properties, always wash the garment zipped up and inside out, machine wash cold with like colors, and tumble dry low. Crucially, avoid fabric softeners, ironing, and dry cleaning.
Is the material environmentally friendly?
Yes, the main body fabric contains at least 80% recycled polyester, excluding trims and embellishments. It also uses a fluorine-free water repellent treatment, making it a more environmentally conscious choice.
Are the pockets secure for holding valuables?
Yes, the windbreaker features secure, zip hand pockets, designed to safely hold small essentials like keys, a phone, or a wallet during your activities.
Troubleshooting
Water repellency seems to be diminishing.
Ensure you are following all care instructions, especially avoiding fabric softeners and not ironing, as these can compromise the UA Storm technology. Washing and drying correctly can sometimes reactivate the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish.
Garment feels too tight or restrictive during movement.
While the fabric is stretchy, ensure you have the correct size. Refer to Under Armour's sizing charts. If the issue persists, consider trying a larger size or verifying it's worn over appropriate base layers that don't add bulk.
Zipper snags or sticks.
Check if any fabric is caught in the zipper teeth. Gently pull the fabric away from the zipper and try again. Keeping the garment zipped up before washing can also help prevent zipper issues.

Care Instructions To maintain the performance and longevity of your Under Armour Stretch Woven Windbreaker, follow these care guidelines carefully: 1. Preparation: Before washing, ensure the garment is zipped up completely and turned inside out. This protects the outer fabric and zippers. 2. Washing: Machine wash cold with like colors. Using cold water helps preserve the fabric's integrity and color. 3. Bleach: Only use non-chlorine bleach when absolutely necessary. Chlorine bleach can damage the fabric's water-repellent properties. 4. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting. High heat can damage synthetic fibers and the water-repellent finish. 5. Softener: Do not use fabric softeners. Softeners can leave residues that clog the fabric's pores, reducing its breathability and water repellency. 6. Ironing: Do not iron. Ironing can melt or damage the synthetic fibers and coatings. 7. Dry Cleaning: Do not dry clean. The chemicals used in dry cleaning can compromise the fabric's specialized treatments.

It layers well over athletic shirts or light base layers and is suitable for activities like running, hiking, training, and general outdoor wear where protection from wind and light moisture is desired.
