FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for extreme cold weather?
The jacket includes a removable thermal liner, making it suitable for cool to moderate temperatures. For extreme cold, additional base layers or a heavier insulating jacket may be required.
What is the CE approval rating?
The entire jacket is CE approved to Level AA, indicating a good level of abrasion resistance and impact protection for its intended use.
Can I wear my own back protector?
Yes, the jacket has a provision for a back protector. It is compatible with Oxford Level 2 protection back protectors (OB101), which are sold separately.
How do I clean the jacket?
Hand wash with mild detergent and cool water. Do not bleach or tumble dry. Allow to air dry away from direct heat.
Are the reflective elements visible in all conditions?
The jacket features subtle black reflective elements designed to enhance visibility in low light conditions by reflecting light from sources like headlights, making the rider appear as a full humanoid shape to other road users.
What does 'continental cut' mean?
A 'continental cut' typically refers to a slightly longer cut at the back for better coverage when riding, combined with a more tailored or sporty fit.
Troubleshooting
Jacket is leaking water
Ensure all zippers are fully closed. Check seam taping for damage. Consider applying a waterproofing treatment to the outer fabric and re-sealing zippers with a zipper lubricant.
Vents are not providing enough airflow
Ensure vent openings are not obstructed by clothing or debris. The effectiveness of vents can be reduced at very low speeds.
Thermal liner is difficult to install/remove
Ensure the liner is aligned correctly with the jacket's attachment points. Lay the jacket flat and carefully zip or un-zip the liner.
Fit feels restrictive
Utilize the bicep, cuff, and waist adjustment straps to achieve a more comfortable and personalized fit. Ensure the accordion stretch panels are not being overstretched.
