Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is the material waterproof?

The polyester material is water-resistant, providing protection in light rain, but it is not fully waterproof in heavy downpours.

Can I use fabric softener when washing this?

No, it is highly recommended to avoid fabric softeners as they can clog the synthetic fibers and negatively affect moisture management properties.

Is this suitable for high-altitude trekking?

Yes, it works well as part of a layering system, though you should pair it with proper thermal base layers for extreme cold.

How do I determine the right size?

Please refer to the standard Karrimor size guide, as the fit is designed to be athletic and ergonomic.

Is the green color fade-resistant?

The fabric is treated to maintain color integrity, but drying in direct sunlight for extended periods can cause premature fading.

Troubleshooting

Fabric snagging on rough surfaces

While durable, avoid contact with sharp rocks or thorns. If a thread pulls, do not cut it; use a needle to pull it back to the inside of the garment.

Water repellency seems to decrease

Apply a specialized synthetic fabric water-repellent spray after a few seasons of heavy use to restore the surface finish.
