FAQs
What is the primary purpose of this jacket?
The Herock Trystan Softshell Jacket is designed to provide protection against wind and moderate rain while remaining breathable, making it ideal for work and outdoor activities in variable conditions.
Is this jacket fully waterproof?
No, the jacket is water-repellent with a rating of 5000 mm. It is suitable for light to moderate rain but may not withstand prolonged heavy downpours.
How do I clean the jacket to maintain its performance?
Machine wash at 30°C with a mild detergent. Avoid bleach, high heat drying, and ironing. Do not dry clean. Proper care helps preserve its water-repellent and breathable properties.
What does '3-layer softshell' mean?
It refers to the jacket's construction, typically consisting of an outer fabric layer, a middle waterproof/breathable membrane, and an inner fleece layer, all bonded together for enhanced protection and comfort.
Can I wear this jacket in very cold weather?
The jacket provides some warmth due to its micro-fleece inner layer. For extreme cold, it is best used as a mid-layer or outer shell over insulating garments.
What are the EN standards mentioned?
EN ISO 13688:2013 specifies general requirements for protective clothing, and EN 14058:2017 provides requirements for clothing that protects against cool environments (above -5°C).
Are there other sizes or colors available?
This guide focuses on the XXL size in Black. Please refer to other product listings for available size and color variations.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels damp inside.
This can occur during high exertion. Ensure the ventilation features (if any) are open. If it's a persistent issue in cool, dry conditions, check that the jacket is not too tight, which can hinder breathability. Consider layering options for very cold weather.
Water is soaking through the fabric.
The jacket is water-repellent, not fully waterproof. For prolonged heavy rain, consider a dedicated waterproof outer shell. The water-repellent treatment may also need refreshing over time. Follow care instructions for washing and consider a re-proofer suitable for softshell fabrics.
Zipper is stiff or stuck.
Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to move the zipper. If it remains stuck, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a silicone-based lubricant to the teeth and carefully work the zipper back and forth.
Elastic drawcord is loose.
Locate the stopper mechanism on the drawcord. Ensure it is properly engaged. If the cord itself is worn or stretched, it may need replacement. Consult a local tailor or repair service.
