Troubleshooting
Water appears to be soaking into the outer fabric
The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating may have worn off. Consider re-treating the fabric with a technical spray-on water repellent.
Difficulty fitting the jacket into its pouch
Ensure you are folding the garment systematically rather than stuffing it. Removing as much air as possible while rolling it tightly will make the process easier.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maintain the longevity of your Trespass Qikpac, avoid storing it in the packaway pouch while wet for extended periods, as this can encourage mildew. When washing, use a mild, non-biological detergent and avoid fabric softeners, as these can compromise the waterproof coating. The jacket is designed with a standard fit, allowing you to comfortably layer a light mid-layer or hoodie underneath. Always ensure the zipper is fully closed and the hood is adjusted to your face shape before heading into stormy weather to maximize the protective seal.
