FAQs

What does 10,000mm waterproof mean?

A rating of 10,000mm means the fabric can withstand the equivalent of 10,000 millimeters of water pressure applied vertically over a 24-hour period without leaking. This is considered good waterproofing for general outdoor use and moderate to heavy rain.

How does the Bionic-Finish® Eco work?

Bionic-Finish® Eco is a sustainable, fluorine-free water-repellent treatment. It modifies the fabric's surface at a microscopic level, causing water molecules to form beads that roll off the material, preventing it from soaking through and maintaining breathability.

Can I wear this coat in warm weather?

While the coat is breathable, it is designed for protection against rain and wind. In very warm weather, it might feel too warm due to its waterproof and windproof nature. It is best suited for cool to mild temperatures where weather protection is needed.

How do I care for the jacket to maintain its waterproofness?

Wash the jacket regularly using a technical wash and avoid fabric softeners. Ensure the DWR finish is active; if not, reactivate with heat or reapply a DWR treatment. Always follow the specific care instructions on the garment's label.

Is the hood permanently attached?

No, the hood is adjustable and can be zipped on or off according to the wearer's preference or weather conditions.

What is the benefit of the two-way zip?

The two-way zip allows you to unzip from the bottom, providing extra space and ventilation, especially when seated or riding, without having to remove the entire jacket.

What sizes are available for this coat?

This specific product listing is for a size M in Black. The Aubrion React Waterproof Coat is also available in other sizes and colours, which can be found under variant options.

Troubleshooting

Water is soaking into the fabric instead of beading off.

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may need to be reactivated or reapplied. Try reactivating by tumble drying on a low heat (check care label). If ineffective, consider using a specialized re-waterproofing spray suitable for technical outdoor wear, following product instructions.

Coat feels less breathable than expected.

Ensure the coat is clean, as dirt and oils can clog the membrane. Check that the garment is not inside out during washing. Also, ensure the DWR finish is functioning correctly, as a saturated fabric will reduce breathability.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to use.

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth and a mild soap. Once dry, apply a small amount of beeswax or a silicone-based lubricant specifically designed for zippers. Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper teeth.
