FAQs
What does the 10k/10k rating mean?
The 10k/10k rating refers to the jacket's waterproofness and breathability. '10k' waterproof means the fabric can withstand the equivalent of 10,000 millimeters of water pressure before leaking. '10k' breathable means 10,000 grams of water vapor can pass through one square meter of fabric in 24 hours, indicating good breathability.
Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?
The Cloudstrike Jacket is designed for waterproof and windproof protection. It does not have significant insulation. For very cold weather, it is best used as an outer shell layered over insulating clothing like fleece or down jackets.
How do I clean the jacket?
Machine wash cold with like colors. Use only non-chlorine bleach if needed. Tumble dry low or hang dry. Do not iron and avoid fabric softeners.
Does the jacket contain harmful chemicals?
The jacket uses a fluorine-free water repellent treatment, which is a more environmentally conscious alternative to traditional PFC-based treatments.
What is the benefit of the recycled polyester?
Using at least 90% recycled polyester in the main body fabric reduces the need for virgin materials, lowering the environmental impact associated with production and resource consumption.
Can I wear this jacket for everyday use?
Yes, the jacket's design and UA Storm technology make it suitable for everyday wear, especially during seasons with rain or wind, offering both protection and comfort.
What sizes are available?
This specific product listing is for size XXL. The Under Armour Cloudstrike Jacket is available in a range of adult sizes, including S, M, L, and XXXL, often in different colorways.
Troubleshooting
Jacket is no longer repelling water effectively
Clean the jacket according to care instructions. Once clean and dry, apply a suitable DWR treatment (spray-on or wash-in) to restore water repellency. Avoid fabric softeners during washing.
Water is leaking through seams
While the jacket features fully taped seams, extreme wear or damage could compromise them. Ensure the jacket is properly cared for. If leaks persist through seams, contact customer support.
Zipper is sticking or difficult to close
Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the slider. You can apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth to improve smooth operation.
Jacket feels clammy inside
This can sometimes occur if the garment's breathability is overwhelmed by high exertion levels or if the inner moisture barrier is compromised. Ensure the jacket is clean and that all ventilation options (like cuffs and hood) are adjusted properly. If the issue persists, the fabric's breathability may be nearing its limit for the conditions.
