FAQs
Is this jacket fully waterproof or water-resistant?
The jacket is engineered with a waterproof ripstop fabric and a TPU 10K 2.5L printed membrane, providing high-level water resistance. It is designed to keep you protected from rain during athletic activities.
What is the main advantage of the material used?
The primary advantage is its combination of being lightweight, water-resistant, and made from 100% recycled polyester, offering both performance and sustainability.
Can I wear this jacket in very cold weather?
This jacket is designed for protection against rain and wind during athletic activity. It provides some insulation but is not intended as a heavy winter coat. For very cold conditions, layering underneath is recommended.
How do I clean the jacket to maintain its performance?
Machine wash cold with mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and high heat drying. Reapply a DWR finish periodically to maintain water repellency.
What does '10K 2.5L' refer to in the material description?
'10K' refers to the hydrostatic head rating, indicating the fabric's resistance to water pressure (10,000mm). '2.5L' refers to a 2.5-layer construction, where a thin membrane is bonded to the outer fabric and a protective pattern is printed on the inside, offering a balance of durability, breathability, and weight.
Is the jacket suitable for everyday casual wear?
While it has a professional look, its design is optimized for athletic movement and performance. It is suitable for casual wear, but its core benefit is for training and sports activities.
What is the fit like?
The jacket is designed for an athletic fit, allowing for agility and movement. It is not overly loose but provides enough room for layering if needed.
Troubleshooting
Water is seeping through the fabric.
The jacket's Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. Consider washing the jacket and reapplying a DWR treatment according to product instructions.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and water to remove dirt or salt. Lubricate with a silicone-based zipper lubricant or wax if necessary.
Jacket feels less breathable.
The membrane may be clogged with detergent residue or dirt. Wash the jacket with a technical fabric wash and rinse thoroughly. Avoid fabric softeners.
Minor tears or rips in the fabric.
For small tears, use a fabric repair patch designed for outdoor gear. For larger damages, professional repair may be necessary to maintain waterproofing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This jacket requires no specific setup; it is ready to wear out of the packaging. It is compatible with standard athletic wear. To care for the jacket and maintain its water-resistant properties, follow these guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash cold with mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can clog the membrane's pores and reduce breathability and water resistance.
- Drying: Tumble dry on low heat or air dry. Avoid high heat, which can damage the waterproof membrane.
- Re-waterproofing: Periodically, especially after significant wear or washing, you may need to reapply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish to restore its water-repelling capabilities. Use a spray-on or wash-in treatment specifically designed for technical outerwear.
- Cleaning Zippers: Occasionally clean the zippers with a soft brush and water to ensure they remain free of debris and function smoothly.
