FAQs
What is the breathability rating of the Isotex 15000 fabric?
The Isotex 15000 fabric has a breathability rating of 15,000 g/m²/24 hours.
Can this jacket be worn in very cold weather?
The jacket itself is designed for waterproofing and wind resistance. For cold weather, it is best layered over insulating clothing such as fleece or down jackets.
How should I clean the jacket?
Machine wash on a gentle cycle at 30°C using a liquid detergent. Rinse thoroughly and hang to dry. Do not bleach or tumble dry.
What does a Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish do?
The DWR finish causes water to bead up and roll off the surface of the fabric, preventing it from soaking in and helping to maintain breathability.
Does the hood detach?
No, the hood is grown-on, meaning it is permanently attached to the jacket. It features drawcords for adjustment.
What are the pocket options?
The jacket has two lower pockets with branded snap fastenings and one internal security pocket.
How do I adjust the fit of the jacket?
The jacket features an adjustable shockcord waist, adjustable cuffs with snap fastenings, and drawcords on the grown-on hood.
Troubleshooting
Jacket is not completely waterproof.
Ensure all seams are intact and that the DWR finish is still effective. If repellency has diminished, re-apply a suitable fabric re-proofer. Check that the hood and cuffs are properly adjusted.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Gently pull the zipper while holding the fabric taut. If it remains stiff, apply a small amount of wax or graphite (from a pencil tip) to the zipper teeth. Avoid forcing the zipper.
Jacket feels clammy inside during activity.
This can indicate high humidity or intense activity. Ensure the jacket is zipped up correctly and the hood is adjusted to allow for ventilation. Consider wearing moisture-wicking base layers.
Fabric feels stiff after washing.
This is normal for waterproof fabrics. Ensure you have rinsed thoroughly. Do not tumble dry, as this can make the fabric brittle. Air drying should resolve stiffness.
