FAQs

What type of riding is the Oxford Stormland jacket best suited for?

The jacket is ideal for adventure touring, long-distance riding, and commuting in all weather conditions, especially when significant rain or wind is expected.

How do I clean the jacket to maintain its waterproof properties?

Hand wash with a mild detergent in lukewarm water. Avoid bleach. Rinse thoroughly and drip dry away from heat. Reapply a DWR treatment periodically.

Is the thermal liner removable?

Yes, the WarmDry thermal layer is removable, allowing you to adapt the jacket for warmer weather or for use with different base layers.

What does 'Dry2Dry Trilaminate' mean?

Dry2Dry Trilaminate construction means the jacket has three layers bonded together: a durable nylon outer shell, a waterproof and breathable membrane, and a comfortable inner tricot layer. This provides robust weather protection and comfort.

Are the shoulder and elbow protectors included and certified?

Yes, the jacket comes equipped with CE Level 2 certified protectors for the shoulders and elbows, offering a high level of impact protection.

How effective is the dual cuff system?

The dual cuff system features an inner wrist gaiter and an outer cuff that fastens over gloves, creating a comprehensive waterproof and windproof seal to prevent water from entering up the sleeves.

Does the jacket have a RECCO Reflector?

Yes, the Oxford Stormland jacket is equipped with a RECCO Reflector, which aids in search and rescue operations in the event of an accident.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer waterproof.

The Dry2Dry membrane may require re-treatment. Clean the jacket thoroughly and apply a suitable DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray designed for technical outerwear. Ensure all seals and zippers are functioning correctly.

Ventilation zippers are stiff or difficult to open/close.

Clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and mild soap to remove any dirt or debris. Apply a silicone-based zipper lubricant to ensure smooth operation.

Jacket feels too warm even with vents open.

Ensure the thermal liner is removed if not needed. Consider opening all available ventilation zones, including chest, arm, and back vents, for maximum airflow. On very hot days, this jacket may still retain heat compared to mesh-specific alternatives.

Magnetic clasps on chest vents are not holding securely.

Check if the magnets are obstructed by dirt or debris. If the magnets themselves are damaged, contact customer support. Ensure the fabric around the clasp is not overly stressed when attaching.
