Sealskinz Eaton - Black - M

The Sealskinz Eaton Running Jacket is water-repellent, meaning it is designed to resist light rain and spray. It is not fully waterproof and may not provide protection in prolonged heavy downpours.

Machine wash cold with a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach. Tumble dry on low or hang dry. Never use high heat.

Turn the jacket inside out, locate the chest pocket, and carefully fold the jacket into the pocket, zipping it closed once stowed.

It is ideal for running in mild, wet, or windy conditions. Its lightweight and breathable nature makes it suitable for intense workouts where overheating is a concern.

While the jacket is designed to be lightweight, you can wear a thin base layer or a light mid-layer underneath for added warmth in cooler temperatures. A very bulky layer may restrict movement.

The nylon fabric blend is chosen for its durability, offering resistance to abrasion and wear from regular use during running activities.

The water repellency is a treatment that can diminish over time with washing and wear. You can restore it by using specific re-waterproofing treatments available for outdoor apparel.

Ensure the jacket is clean. Dirt and oils can clog the fabric's pores. Follow the care instructions for washing. Check that the jacket is not turned inside out when packing to avoid potential damage to the inner lining.

The water-repellent treatment may have worn off. Consider re-waterproofing the jacket using a suitable product. Ensure you are not exposing the jacket to heavy downpours for extended periods, as it is designed for water repellency, not full waterproofing.

Gently clean the zipper with a damp cloth and dry it. You can apply a small amount of wax or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth for smoother operation. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper track.

Ensure the jacket is as dry as possible before packing. Lay the jacket flat and smooth out wrinkles before carefully folding it into the chest pocket. Do not force the jacket into the pouch; gentle folding is key.
