FAQs

How do I adjust the hood?
The hood features a drawstring that can be tightened or loosened to achieve a secure and comfortable fit around your head.
Can I wear a thick sweater underneath?
The jacket is designed with a standard fit. Depending on your personal preference and the thickness of the sweater, you may be able to layer a lighter to medium-weight sweater underneath for added warmth.
What sizes and colors are available?

How durable is the fleece lining?

Troubleshooting
Jacket feels stiff after washing
Avoid using fabric softeners. If already used, try a rinse cycle with white vinegar to help restore breathability.
Zipper is difficult to use
Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper. Gently clean the zipper teeth and apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or wax for smoother operation.
Reduced windproof performance
Check the jacket for any damage or wear on the outer shell. Ensure all zippers and closures are fully secured.
