Product Information
Full details
The Trespass Bela II women's softshell jacket in red is designed for active adults seeking a versatile outdoor layer. Its primary benefit is providing protection from light weather conditions while maintaining breathability and comfort. A potential consideration is that it is a softshell, meaning it offers water resistance rather than full waterproofing. Key features include multiple zip pockets, adjustable cuffs and hem, and a chin guard.

FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
The Bela II is a softshell jacket and is water-resistant, meaning it can handle light rain or mist. It is not fully waterproof and is not designed for heavy downpours.
What is the fabric made of?
The fabric composition is 94% Polyester and 4% Elastane with a TPU Membrane, offering a balance of stretch, durability, and weather resistance.
Can I wear this in cold weather?
The jacket provides wind resistance and some warmth. For colder conditions, it is recommended to layer it over a base layer and potentially a fleece for added insulation.
How do I clean the jacket?
Machine wash at 40°C with a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach. Do not iron or dry clean. Tumble dry on low or hang dry.
What activities is this jacket best suited for?
It is suitable for hiking, walking, everyday commuting, and casual outdoor activities in mild to cool weather conditions where wind and light precipitation resistance are needed.
Does it have a hood?
The product description does not mention a hood. This model features a chin guard for comfort.
How do I adjust the fit?
The fit can be adjusted at the cuffs using the tab adjusters and at the hem using the drawcord.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels clammy or loses breathability
Ensure the jacket is clean, as dirt and oils can clog the membrane pores. Wash according to care instructions. Consider re-applying a DWR treatment if water is no longer beading on the surface.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth and a small brush to remove any dirt or debris. Lubricate with a graphite pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant.
Water is soaking through the fabric
The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating may have worn off. Wash the jacket and then apply a suitable DWR spray or wash-in treatment, following the product's instructions.
Drawcord at the hem is not holding its position
Check that the toggle or stopper is functioning correctly. Ensure the drawcord is threaded properly through all eyelets and is not frayed.
