Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain as well as snow?

Can I adjust the hood?
Yes, the hood is sew-on and features a toggle adjuster, allowing you to tighten it for a snugger fit and better protection against wind and snow.
What are the pocket features?
The jacket includes two side pockets for convenient storage of essentials or for keeping hands warm.
Does the jacket have a snowskirt?

Troubleshooting
Jacket is not repelling water effectively.
The DWR finish may have worn off. Clean the jacket and reapply a DWR treatment according to the product instructions.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to use.
Ensure the stormflap is clear of the zipper teeth. Apply a small amount of wax or silicone lubricant to the zipper teeth.
Jacket feels too warm during moderate activity.
Consider layering with lighter base layers or opening the main zipper and cuffs for ventilation. This jacket is designed for very cold conditions.
Snowskirt is not fitting securely.
Adjust the elasticated waist of the snowskirt if applicable, or ensure it is tucked correctly under ski pants to create a seal.
