Karrimor 3 in 1 Waterproof Jacket - Black

The '3 in 1' design means the jacket consists of two separate layers: a waterproof outer shell and a removable fleece inner jacket. These can be worn together for full weather protection, or individually (shell only for rain, fleece only for warmth), giving you three distinct ways to wear it.

The jacket features `Weathertite Technology` with a 10,000mm waterproof rating and 10,000g/m²/24hr breathability. This means it can withstand significant rainfall while allowing perspiration to escape, keeping you dry and comfortable.

Yes, the jacket is machine washable. Always follow the specific instructions on the care label, typically using a gentle cycle with a mild detergent or a specialized technical wash for waterproof garments. Avoid fabric softeners.

The product description states the hood is 'concealable,' meaning it can be tucked away neatly into the collar when not needed, rather than being fully detachable.

`Weathertite Technology` is Karrimor's proprietary fabric technology that provides both waterproofing and breathability. For this jacket, it offers 10,000mm waterproof protection and 10,000g/m²/24hr breathability.

When worn together, the waterproof shell and fleece provide good protection for cooler, wet conditions. For very cold winter weather, especially prolonged exposure, you would need to incorporate additional insulating layers underneath to ensure adequate warmth.

The jacket features elastic drawstring adjusters at both the waist and the hood. You can pull these drawstrings to cinch the fabric, customize the fit, and help seal out wind and retain warmth.

This could be due to condensation from sweat. Ensure you are wearing appropriate base layers that wick moisture away. Also, check that all zippers, including the main storm flap, are fully closed and sealed during heavy rain. If the jacket is old, its Durable Water Repellent (DWR) coating might need to be replenished with a re-proofing product.

While the fleece provides insulation, for very cold conditions, you may need to add additional mid-layers underneath the jacket. Ensure both the shell and fleece are properly zipped together and the adjustable waist and hood drawstrings are snug to trap warmth.

First, check for any tears or punctures in the fabric. If none are present, the jacket's DWR coating may have worn off. This is normal over time. Wash the jacket according to care instructions and then apply a DWR re-proofing spray or wash-in product designed for waterproof garments.
