Product Information

Full details

The Nimbus Crescent Padded Jacket is designed for adult males seeking a versatile, weather-resistant outerwear option. Its key benefit is providing warmth and protection from the elements with a stylish, quilted design. A potential caveat is that its water-repellent properties are best suited for light precipitation rather than heavy downpours. This hybrid jacket features durable polyester and elastane, a fleece lining, and Bionic Finish technology for water and wind resistance, making it ideal for active or casual wear.

FAQs

What kind of weather is this jacket best suited for?

The jacket is ideal for cool, windy, or lightly wet conditions. Its water-repellent and windproof features make it great for autumn, spring, or as a layering piece in colder weather. It is not designed for heavy downpours or extreme cold.

How do I find the right size?

Please consult the sizing chart provided in the 'Setup, Compatibility & Care' section. It lists chest measurements in inches for each size from S to 4XL.

Is the jacket fully waterproof?

No, the jacket is water-repellent thanks to its Bionic Finish technology. This means it can shed light rain and moisture but is not fully waterproof for prolonged exposure to heavy rain.

What does 'hybrid style' mean for this jacket?

A hybrid style typically means the jacket combines different materials or construction methods to achieve optimal performance. In this case, it likely refers to the combination of a quilted exterior, fleece fabric, and specialized finishes for warmth, comfort, and weather resistance.

Are the materials environmentally friendly?

Yes, the jacket is made from recycled materials and adheres to REACH standards, indicating a commitment to sustainability and safety.

Can this jacket be worn in very cold weather?

It can be worn in cold weather, especially when layered with warmer clothing underneath. The jacket itself provides a good wind barrier and some insulation, but for extreme cold, additional thermal layers are recommended.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels slightly damp after exposure to rain.

The jacket is water-repellent, not waterproof. For heavy or prolonged rain, consider an additional waterproof outer layer. Ensure the Bionic Finish is intact; reapplication may be necessary over time if performance diminishes.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to use.

Ensure the fabric around the zipper is clear. Gently work the zipper up and down. If still stiff, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or wax to the zipper teeth.

Jacket lost some water repellency.

Wash the jacket according to care instructions, then tumble dry on a low heat setting for about 20 minutes to reactivate the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish. For significant loss of performance, consider a DWR re-treatment product suitable for technical outerwear.

Fit is too tight or too loose.

Refer to the sizing chart provided (S: 38 in. to 4XL: 50 in. chest circumference). If the fit is not ideal, consider exchanging for a different size based on these measurements.
