What activities is this jacket best suited for?

Can I store my phone and keys in the pockets?

Yes, the jacket features two convenient pockets designed to hold small essentials like keys, a phone, or energy bars securely during your activity.

Does the hood offer adjustable tightening?

The product description does not specify adjustable tightening for the hood, but it is integrated for protective coverage.

Troubleshooting

Water resistance seems reduced

Wash the jacket according to care instructions, avoiding fabric softeners. Consider applying a DWR re-waterproofing spray to restore its protective qualities.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to use

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to free any obstruction. If the issue persists, a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a specialized zipper lubricant can be applied to the teeth.

Jacket feels too warm during activity

Utilize the full zip fastening to increase ventilation. Consider wearing lighter layers underneath or removing the jacket if conditions allow.
