FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the Dry2Dry Trilaminate construction?

The Dry2Dry Trilaminate construction provides a highly waterproof and breathable outer shell, effectively keeping the rider dry from external moisture while allowing internal perspiration to escape, ensuring comfort in various conditions.

How do I adjust ventilation on the jacket?

The jacket features six direct ventilation zones. You can open large fold-back chest vents (magnetically fastened), upper arm zippers, and vertical back zippers to control airflow according to your needs and the ambient temperature.

What is the purpose of the dual cuff construction?

The dual cuff construction, featuring a wrist gaiter under an outer cuff, creates a secure, weatherproof seal between the jacket and your gloves. This prevents wind and rain from entering up your sleeves, keeping your hands and arms dry and warm.

Can I wear this jacket in very cold weather?

Yes, the jacket includes a removable WarmDry thermal layer with Polartec Power Grid stretch for added warmth. For extremely cold conditions, it can be layered over additional insulating garments.

Is the neck gaiter removable?

Yes, the Oxford Stormland jacket comes with a removable water-resistant neck gaiter that offers additional protection from the elements and can be detached when not needed.

What safety features are integrated into the jacket?

The jacket is equipped with CE Level 2 certified protectors for the shoulders and elbows, offering high levels of impact protection. It also features a RECCO Reflector for enhanced searchability in emergency situations.

How should I clean and maintain the jacket?

It is recommended to hand wash with a technical cleaner and air dry away from direct heat. Avoid detergents and tumble drying to preserve the waterproof membrane and fabric integrity. Regular DWR treatment is advised.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer waterproof or breathable.

Ensure the jacket is clean and free from dirt and oils. Re-apply a suitable DWR treatment to the outer fabric. Check the integrity of the Dry2Dry membrane for any tears or damage.

Zippers are stiff or difficult to operate.

Clean the zipper teeth gently with a soft brush and mild soap. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or zipper wax to ensure smooth operation.

Vents are not staying open.

Ensure the magnetic closures are properly aligned and making full contact. For chest vents, check if the material has become creased, preventing the magnet from securing effectively.

Fit feels restrictive with thermal liner installed.

Ensure the thermal liner is correctly attached and all Polartec Power Grid stretch panels are aligned with your body's movement. Consider removing the liner if more freedom of movement is required.

Care:

  1. Washing: Hand wash using a technical wash cleaner specifically designed for waterproof apparel. Do not use detergents, fabric softeners, or bleach. Machine wash on a gentle cycle if recommended by the specific care label, using cold water.
  2. Drying: Air dry the jacket away from direct heat sources or sunlight. Avoid tumble drying, as high heat can damage the waterproof membrane.
  3. Re-proofing: Periodically re-apply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment to the outer fabric to maintain its water-shedding capabilities. Follow the instructions on the DWR product.
