FAQs
What type of weather is this jacket best suited for?
This jacket is ideal for moderate rain and wind. It features HELLY TECH® Protection for waterproof and windproof capabilities, making it suitable for hiking and outdoor activities in less extreme conditions.
Can I wear this jacket in cold weather?
The jacket itself provides wind and water protection. For cold weather, it is recommended to layer a warm insulating jacket (like a fleece or down jacket) underneath. The regular fit is designed to accommodate layering.
How do I clean the jacket?
Machine wash in warm water at 40°C with similar colors. Close all zippers and fasteners before washing. Avoid using fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low heat.
Is the jacket fully waterproof?
Yes, the jacket features HELLY TECH® Protection technology and is fully waterproof. However, the zippers are water-resistant, not fully waterproof, which is typical for this type of jacket.
What does '2.5-layer construction' mean?
A 2.5-layer construction refers to the jacket's laminate. It has an outer face fabric, a waterproof membrane, and a thin protective print or scrim on the inside (the '0.5' layer), making it lighter and more packable than 3-layer constructions.
How should I care for the DWR treatment?
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) treatment helps water bead off the fabric. Over time and with wear, it can diminish. After washing and drying, you can reapply a DWR treatment following product instructions to restore its performance.
What does 'bluesign® certified' mean?
bluesign® certification means that the materials used in the jacket are produced in a way that minimizes environmental impact, conserves resources, and ensures consumer safety, adhering to strict sustainability standards.
Troubleshooting
Jacket is no longer repelling water effectively
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) treatment may have worn off. You can reapply a DWR treatment after washing and drying the jacket according to care instructions. Ensure the jacket is clean before reapplication.
Jacket feels clammy inside during activity
Open the underarm ventilation zippers to increase airflow. Ensure you are wearing appropriate breathable layers underneath. The jacket's breathability is designed for moderate activity; very high-intensity workouts might still lead to internal moisture buildup.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Ensure the zipper teeth are clean and free of debris. Gently lubricate the zipper with a graphite pencil tip or a specialized zipper lubricant. Avoid forcing the zipper.
Jacket has a slight odor
Follow the recommended machine washing instructions. Ensure the jacket is completely dry before storing it. Avoid storing in damp conditions.
