FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
The jacket is designed for comfort and warmth in cool conditions, but it is not a technical waterproof garment. It will handle light mist, but heavy rain will eventually soak through.
How do I pack the jacket?
The jacket is designed to compress easily. You can fold or roll it tightly and tuck it into its own internal pocket or a small packing cube for travel.
Can I wear this while running?
Yes, its lightweight nature makes it a great choice for outdoor runs in cool weather, though its breathability is best suited for moderate intensity.
Does it have side pockets?
Yes, the jacket features functional side pockets, though you should check the interior for the specific packable-dedicated pouch.
What is the best way to clean the outer fabric?
A damp cloth is usually sufficient for spot cleaning. For a full wash, follow the care label instructions and use a gentle cycle with a mild detergent.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is sticking or not sliding smoothly
Check the zipper track for fabric snags and ensure the teeth are clean. You can apply a small amount of graphite from a pencil to the teeth to lubricate them.
Insulation appears to be clumping after washing
Tumble dry the jacket on low heat with clean tennis balls to help fluff and redistribute the internal insulation evenly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your jacket in peak condition, always check the internal garment tag for specific wash instructions. As this jacket is made of polyester, it should generally be machine washed on a gentle cycle with similar colors. Avoid using heavy detergents or bleach, as these can break down the synthetic insulation and the outer fabric finish. Because the jacket is packable, avoid storing it compressed for extended periods to maintain the loft of the insulation. Always ensure the zipper is fully closed before washing to prevent damage to other items in the load.
