FAQs
What does 5000mm waterproof rating mean?
A 5000mm rating indicates that the fabric can withstand the pressure of a 5000mm column of water before it starts to leak through. This is generally considered good for moderate rain.
What does 5000mvp breathability mean?
MVP stands for Moisture Vapor Permeability. A 5000mvp rating means that 5000 grams of water vapor can pass through one square meter of the fabric in a 24-hour period, indicating a moderate level of breathability.
Can I wear this jacket in heavy rain?
The jacket is rated for 5000mm waterproofing, which is suitable for moderate to steady rain. For prolonged exposure to heavy downpours or extreme weather, a jacket with a higher waterproof rating might be more appropriate.
How do I clean the packaway pouch?
The packaway pouch is part of the jacket itself. Follow the general care instructions for the jacket: machine wash at 30°C and air dry.
Is this jacket insulated?
No, the Trespass Qikpac is a shell jacket designed for waterproof and windproof protection. It does not have insulation, allowing you to layer it over other clothing for warmth.
What if the jacket doesn't fit?
This specific guide is for a size S in Yellow. The Trespass Qikpac jacket is available in various sizes and colors. Please check the product details for other available variants.
Troubleshooting
Jacket is not fully waterproof.
Ensure all seams are intact and the PU coating is not damaged. Re-waterproofing treatments can be applied periodically if performance decreases.
Jacket feels clammy inside.
This can occur during high exertion. Ensure the jacket is zipped up correctly and consider adjusting the fit if possible. The breathability rating is suitable for moderate activity.
Jacket is difficult to pack into its pouch.
Ensure the jacket is clean and completely dry before attempting to pack it. Smooth out wrinkles and fold it as compactly as possible before stuffing it into the pouch.
