FAQs
What is the main benefit of the Aigle MTD® fabric?
The Aigle MTD® fabric is designed to be waterproof and breathable, offering protection from the elements while allowing moisture vapor to escape, keeping you comfortable.
How do I adjust the hood for better protection?
The hood features a drawcord adjustment. Pull the cord to tighten the hood around your face for increased protection against wind and rain.
Can I wear this parka in very cold temperatures?
Yes, the parka is designed for warmth. For extremely cold conditions, layering with a warm base layer and mid-layer is recommended for maximum insulation.
How many pockets does this parka have?
The parka features a total of seven pockets: six on the exterior and one on the interior for secure storage.
Is the faux fur trim on the hood removable?
The product details mention faux fur on the inside of the hood. It is advisable to check the specific product label or consult Aigle customer service to confirm if it is detachable for cleaning purposes.
What material is the parka primarily made from?
The main fabric of the parka is 100% polyester, with a 100% polyamide lining and 100% polyester padding.
Troubleshooting
Water not beading on the fabric surface.
The water-repellent treatment may need to be reapplied. Consider using a suitable DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray following product instructions.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth.
Parka feels less warm than expected.
Ensure all zippers and closures are fully fastened. Check that the hood is properly adjusted. For extreme cold, consider layering with additional warm clothing underneath.
Faux fur trim appears matted after cleaning.
Gently brush the faux fur with a soft brush or comb after it has completely air-dried to restore its texture.
