FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?
Yes, with a 3000mm waterproof rating and taped seams, the Trespass Faithful Parka Jacket is designed to keep you dry in moderate to heavy rain.
Can I wear this jacket in warmer weather?
Due to its padded and furry fleece lining, this jacket is primarily designed for cooler to cold weather and may be too warm for mild or summer temperatures.
How do I maintain the jacket's waterproof properties?
Wash the jacket with a specialist technical cleaner designed for waterproof outerwear. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach. Reapply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment periodically if water stops beading on the surface.
Is the hood adjustable?
Yes, the jacket features an adjustable 'grown on hood' to ensure a snug and protective fit against the elements.
Is the fur trim on the hood removable?
Yes, the hood features a removable fur trim, allowing you to customize the jacket's look and feel.
What does '3000mvp breathable' mean?
3000mvp (Moisture Vapour Permeability) indicates that 3000 grams of water vapor can pass through a square meter of fabric in 24 hours. This means the jacket allows body moisture to escape, helping you stay comfortable and prevent clamminess.
Can I machine wash this jacket?
Yes, it can typically be machine washed. However, always check the specific care label inside your jacket for precise instructions, and use a gentle cycle with a suitable technical wash product.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels damp or clammy on the inside despite being waterproof.
This could be due to condensation if the temperature difference between inside and outside is significant, or if the jacket's breathability is compromised. Ensure inner layers are wicking and not trapping moisture. If the jacket is dirty, wash it with a technical cleaner to restore breathability, as dirt can block pores.
Water is no longer beading on the surface, and the fabric appears to be absorbing water.
The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish may have worn off. This is normal over time. Wash the jacket with a DWR-restoring technical wash or apply a DWR spray-on treatment, following the product's instructions. A low-heat tumble dry after treatment can help activate the DWR.
The removable fur trim detaches too easily or doesn't stay securely in place.
Check the attachment mechanism (e.g., buttons, poppers, zipper). Ensure all fasteners are fully engaged. If a fastener is damaged, contact customer support for possible replacement or repair options.
Jacket doesn't feel warm enough in cold conditions.
The jacket is padded and fleece-lined for warmth. Ensure you are layering appropriately underneath, using suitable base and mid-layers for the ambient temperature. Also, check that the adjustable drawcord at the waist and hood are snug to trap warmth effectively.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
Your Trespass Faithful Parka Jacket arrives ready for use. Before wearing, adjust the drawcord at the waist to achieve your desired fit. The 'grown on hood' is integrated, but its fit can be adjusted using the toggles or straps to ensure it provides optimal protection without obstructing your vision. If desired, attach or remove the hood's fur trim using its integrated fastening mechanism.
Compatibility
This parka jacket is designed to be a versatile outer layer. It pairs well with various mid-layers like sweaters or lighter fleece jackets for added warmth in colder conditions. Its functional design makes it suitable for everyday casual wear, as well as for light hiking, dog walking, and other outdoor pursuits. Due to its padded nature, it's most compatible with cooler weather attire.
Care
Proper care is essential to maintain the jacket's waterproof and breathable properties. Always refer to the specific care label inside your jacket for detailed instructions. General guidelines include:
- Washing: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with a technical wash designed for waterproof fabrics. Avoid using fabric softeners or bleach, as these can degrade the waterproof coating and breathability.
- Drying: Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry in a well-ventilated area. Avoid high heat, which can damage the fabric and taped seams. Some waterproof jackets benefit from a short, low-heat tumble dry to reactivate the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish.
- Maintenance: If the water starts to 'wet out' (soak into the fabric instead of beading up), consider reapplying a DWR treatment spray or wash-in product suitable for waterproof garments. Store in a dry, cool place.
