FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

The Pinnacle Waterproof Jacket is designed primarily for water and wind protection. While it can be layered with warm clothing, it does not have built-in insulation and may not be sufficient on its own for extreme cold.

How do I clean the jacket?

Machine wash cold with a mild detergent. Do not use fabric softeners or bleach. Tumble dry on low heat or air dry.

What does 'breathable lining' mean?

A breathable lining allows water vapor (sweat) to escape from the inside of the jacket to the outside, helping to keep you dry and comfortable during physical activity.

How often should I reapply the DWR treatment?

This depends on usage and washing frequency. A good indicator is when water stops beading up on the surface and begins to soak into the fabric. Typically, this might be after 10-20 washes or a year of regular use.

Can I wear this jacket for intense physical activity like running?

Yes, the jacket's waterproof and breathable features make it suitable for intense activities where staying dry from both external rain and internal sweat is important.

What is the warranty period for this jacket?

Information regarding the specific warranty period is not provided in the product description. Please refer to the point of purchase or the manufacturer's official website for warranty details.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer repelling water effectively

The DWR treatment may need to be reapplied. Clean the jacket thoroughly and follow the instructions for a DWR spray or wash-in treatment.

Lining feels clammy or less breathable

Ensure the jacket is clean; dirt and oils can clog the pores of the breathable membrane. Wash according to care instructions. Avoid overwashing, as this can degrade performance over time.

Zipper is difficult to operate

Clean the zipper track with water and a soft brush. Apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant or wax to the zipper teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper.

Seams are leaking water

This may indicate a defect in the seam taping. Contact customer support for potential repair or replacement options.
