Full details
The Trespass Bela II Softshell Jacket in Blue, size XXL, is designed for adult women seeking a versatile outdoor jacket. Its key benefit is providing protection against wind and light weather while maintaining breathability.

FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?
No, the Bela II is a softshell jacket. It offers good resistance to light rain and wind but is not fully waterproof. For heavy rain, a dedicated waterproof jacket would be more appropriate.
What material is the jacket made from?
The jacket is made from a woven fabric consisting of 94% Polyester and 4% Elastane, with a TPU (Thermoplastic Polyurethane) membrane.
How do I adjust the fit of the jacket?
You can adjust the fit using the tab adjuster on the cuffs and the drawcord located at the hem of the jacket.
Can I wear this jacket in very cold weather?
The jacket provides wind resistance and some insulation, but for very cold temperatures, it is best worn as a mid-layer over warmer garments like fleece or thermal wear.
What is the purpose of the chin guard?
The chin guard is designed to prevent the top of the zipper from rubbing against your skin, providing extra comfort and protection.
How should I clean the jacket to maintain its performance?
Machine wash at 40°C with a mild detergent, avoiding fabric softeners. Rinse thoroughly and tumble dry on low heat or hang dry. Re-proofing periodically is recommended.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels less water-repellent than before
The water-repellent finish may have worn off. Clean the jacket according to care instructions and apply a suitable re-proofing spray or wash-in treatment.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Ensure the fabric around the zipper is clear. Gently run a graphite pencil or a wax candle along the zipper teeth to lubricate it. Avoid forcing the zipper.
Jacket feels clammy inside
This can indicate reduced breathability. Ensure the jacket is clean, as dirt and oils can clog the membrane. Check that you are not overheating and consider adjusting layers underneath.
