FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for extreme cold weather?
The jacket features light padding and a quilted lining, making it suitable for cold conditions. However, for extreme cold, it's best used as an outer shell with appropriate thermal layering underneath, as it's not designed for polar expedition-level warmth.
Can I machine wash the Trespass Clea Parka?
Yes, but always check the specific care label inside your jacket for detailed instructions. Generally, use a cool or lukewarm wash with a gentle cycle and specialized technical wash detergents. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach.
How do I maintain the waterproof performance?
Regularly clean the jacket according to its care label, avoiding harsh chemicals. If water no longer beads off the fabric, you may need to re-apply a Durable Water Repellent (DWR) treatment available from outdoor retailers.
Is the jacket breathable?
While the Tres-Shield fabric and TPU membrane provide excellent waterproof and windproof protection, specific breathability ratings are not provided. It offers a moderate level of breathability suitable for urban and light outdoor activities, but may not be optimal for high-intensity exercise.
Does this jacket have pockets?
Info needed: The description does not explicitly state the presence or type of pockets. Please refer to product images or specific retail listings for details on pocket configuration.
What is the material of the jacket?
The Trespass Clea Waterproof Parka Jacket is made from durable Polyester.
Is this jacket heavy or bulky?
The jacket is described as 'lightly padded' with a 'full quilted lining'. This provides warmth without excessive bulk, but it will be more substantial than a thin shell jacket due to its insulation.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels wet inside or 'wets out'
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) coating may need to be reactivated or re-applied. Wash the jacket according to care instructions, and if the issue persists, use a DWR-restoring product suitable for waterproof fabrics. Ensure all zippers are closed during heavy rain.
Jacket doesn't seem warm enough
Ensure you are layering appropriately underneath the jacket for the prevailing conditions. While lightly padded, it's designed to work with base and mid-layers for optimal warmth. Adjust drawcords to trap body heat effectively.
Zippers are stiff or difficult to operate
Clean any dirt or debris from the zipper teeth. A silicone-based lubricant or a graphite pencil can be used sparingly on the teeth to improve movement. Avoid forcing stiff zippers.
Unpleasant odor develops in the jacket
Wash the jacket according to care instructions, focusing on eliminating bacteria. Ensure the jacket is thoroughly dry before storing. Airing it out after each use can also help prevent odors.
Fit feels restrictive or uncomfortable
Check that the size chosen is correct. Utilize the adjustable drawcords at the hood, waist, and hem to customize the fit for comfort and freedom of movement. Ensure you're not wearing too many bulky layers underneath if not intended.

Care Instructions
Proper care is essential to maintain the waterproof and windproof performance of your jacket. Always refer to the specific care label inside your jacket for detailed instructions, as general guidelines may not cover all specifics of the Tres-Shield fabric and TPU membrane.
General Guidelines (Always check label first!):
- Washing: Typically, waterproof jackets should be washed infrequently and with specialized technical wash detergents designed for outdoor gear. Avoid conventional detergents, bleach, and fabric softeners, as these can damage the waterproof membrane and DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating.
- Temperature: Use cool or lukewarm water. A gentle cycle is usually recommended.
- Drying: Air dry the jacket whenever possible. If tumble drying is permitted by the care label, use a low heat setting. High heat can damage the waterproof membrane. Some DWR coatings can be reactivated by gentle heat after washing.
- Re-proofing: Over time, the DWR coating on the jacket's exterior may wear off, causing the fabric to 'wet out'. You can restore water repellency by applying a DWR-restoring product specifically designed for waterproof outerwear.
- Storage: Store the jacket clean and dry in a well-ventilated area.
